S-Bahn traffic in Germany's business capital was experiencing severe delays and even cancellations on Tuesday, with traffic expected to be disrupted all day long.
Frankfurt's S-Bahn disruptions are due to repair work on signal switches in the Galluswarte and Messe area.
Commuters here should expect a tough morning journey to work, with longer waits and the use of replacement bus services in some cases.
According to the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV), four S-Bahn lines are affected: the S3, S4, S5 and S6.
Frankfurter Rundschau has reported that the S1 and S8 are also affected by another "unspecified operation disruption".
According to the RMV, the S3 from the Taunus has been cancelled completely during this time. Commuters will have to resort to replacement buses there. Buses were running between Bad Soden and Rödelheim instead.
The S4 was diverted, with several stops such as those at the Messe, Westbahnhof and the Galluswarte having been cancelled.
The S5 was functioning on a limited schedule, running once every 30 minutes with a platform change at Galluswarte.
On the S6 from Darmstadt, the route was cut short to end at the main station.
Additionally short trips on the S8, between Hauptbahnhof and the Frankfurt and Kelsterbach Airport have been cancelled.

Construction work could continue until Wednesday, December 10th.
Disruptions on the S1 and S8 lines, however, were expected to be wrapped up by 8pm on Tuesday evening.
