On Good Friday, April 9, 1993, an InterCity and an express train collided head-on at Berlin-Wannsee station. Three people died. This was the worst railway accident in post-war Berlin history.
In the weeks leading up to the accident, construction work was taking place on the Berlin–Blankenheim railway line. During this time, the section between Wannsee and the junction at Griebnitzsee was frequently only accessible via a single track. In the days before the accident, the track from Wannsee to Griebnitzsee was closed, and trains were operating in that direction on the opposite track. However, the closure was lifted for the increased traffic during the Easter holidays, and regular service was resumed.
