Mittelrheinbahn: Replacement traffic due to construction work - Middle Rhine Railway faces February 2026 disruptions due to construction

Train services on the Middle Rhine Railway (RB26) will face disruptions in February 2026 due to scheduled construction work. Passengers travelling between Mainz and Koblenz should prepare for cancellations and replacement bus services during key periods.

The affected route includes sections between Mainz Central Station, Bingen (Rhine) Central Station, Remagen, and Koblenz Central Station. Selected departures in both directions will be replaced by buses, covering all regular train stops, including intermediate stations. The changes apply to journeys from February 1–6, February 14–20, and February 21–28.

Modified timetables will be in place, with adjusted departure and arrival times. Some trains will be cancelled entirely, and delays may occur. Passengers are advised to check electronic journey planners for specific updates before travelling.

The replacement buses will mirror the train route, ensuring continuity for travellers. However, the revised schedules differ from the usual rail timetable, requiring extra planning for those using the service.

The temporary bus services aim to maintain transport links while construction takes place. Travellers should verify their journey details in advance, as timetable changes will remain in effect for the specified dates. The adjustments cover both outbound and return trips along the Middle Rhine Railway.
