Railway Story

 An odd update came up via N-TV (commercial news in Germany) this AM.

So what they say....a Bahn railway employee was walking through a ICE train while the train was in Leipzig yesterday, and noticed this plug between two seats.

Examination?  Well....it was connected into the wall socket (230 volts).

Someone had arranged this in a fashion to electrify someone sitting down in the seats.

Cops were called and they will investigate this as far as they can.  I would seriously doubt they can connect it to anyone, unless there's fingerprints involved.  

Just a mischievous person?  Well....with 230 volts, it's not much of a joke.

If you sit on a modern ICE train....most all seats have access to a plug area, to charge up your smart-phone or laptop.
