Are German Train/Bus Schedules Affected Still By Covid?

 Simple answer....YES.

NDR covered this topic in the AM today.

No matter where you go....it's a haphazard schedule that develops, and you might find yourself standing there for what ought to be a two-bus an hour schedule.....finding that for twelve hours today, there's only going to be one bus an hour running.

In the case of trains, it's a pretty harsh situation....where there's supposed to be twenty-four trains to run some route of forty km's for a work-day, and there's a warning sign up....with a max of dozen trains to run this route.  Over-crowding to occur?  Absolutely, and various schedules are then screwed up.  

The system....nationwide....simply wasn't built to handle illness/Covid.
