Cows Cause Chaos at Swiss Train Station
Cows on the Tracks: Sirnach Station Brought to a Standstill Sirnach, Switzerland - Wednesday afternoon saw an unusual disruption to train services at Sirnach train station. Four cows, having escaped their enclosure, took a leisurely stroll across the station platform and onto the train tracks. The unexpected bovine visitors caused significant delays, with trains to Winterthur and Wil temporarily halted. "It was quite a sight," commented one eyewitness, who captured the event on video. "They just walked along as if they owned the place. It was certainly a memorable commute." SBB, the Swiss Federal Railways, confirmed the incident, stating that trains were diverted and experienced delays of up to 20 minutes. Police were called to the scene and safely guided the cows back to their farm. No injuries were reported, either to the cows or to any passengers or railway personnel. The incident, while causing temporary disruption, provided a lighthearted moment amidst the usual railway routine. The video of the cows' unexpected railway adventure has since gone viral on social media.
