"Why did the ICE evacuation take so long?

The delay was partly because of passengers entering the tunnel, ÖBB said.

As passengers were transferring to a replacement train within the tunnel, some people decided to leave on foot, the rail operator said.

For safety reasons, the power in the tunnel had to be turned off again, which meant the replacement train was unable to continue its journey."

People are stoopid. Please listen to the staff and remain calm
