The Berlin light rail train system,
The S-Bahn isn't a light rail system, at least not by European standards.
By US standards, it would be, but by US standards, the ICE is a light
rail system, too.
Many people were trapped in trains stranded between stations. Angry
passengers opened the doors, got out and walked the tracks to the
nearest station, continuing by bus, subway, or taxi.
It took about 3 hours after electricity was restored to have some sort
of traffic running.
Without the angry passengers, it might have been 1 hour. "Persons on the
tracks" means, that operation can't resume, even with everything back to
normal.
The Internet information page by the S-Bahn was
down, the server was not able to cope with the traffic.
Fearless prediction: The same would happen to government servers in a
catastrophe situation.
