Froggy view on 218 321 in front of an IC to Westerland (Sylt) via Niebüll at Itzehoe on 15 February 2026. From 1 May 2026, new electro-diesels Class 248.5 are about to haul the IC services betweem Hamburg and Westerland, cutting times considerable due to their electric and Diesel capacity. 

DB 218 431 quits Lübeck Hbf with an RE to Bad Klkeinen on 15 February 2026 -the REs between Bad Kleinen and Lübeck were then almost all operated by Diesel locomotives Class 218. Four days later however, almost 2/3 of these trains were operated by DMUs. 

The days of manually operated signaling are numbered in Niebüll and the era of Class 218 also draws to a close. From Summer 2026 almost all CLass 218 will have been replaced and the old signalling given way to more modern signalling. On 16 February 2026 DB 218 470 hauls an RE to Westerland (Sylt) out of Niebüll and passes the old signal mast. 
