Submission declined on 22 September 2024 by Johannes Maximilian (talk). This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. This draft seems to be a translation of some text that was composed several years ago. It describes the line's "future" from a past perspective that was so long ago that the described future is now also in the past, which makes little sense. Various parts of the text depict a present situation which was obviously before 2019 (i.e., not the present). Large sections of text have citation needed tags. Multiple claims are very bold, e.g., "the rolling stock used was (…) not very comfortable"; such a claim depicts an opion that should always be attributed to a source, i.e., "according to source xyz, the rolling stock was unconfortable".
