Engine failure on Danube
The "Rhein 1 SL" suffered an engine damage on the Danube near Osterhofen with a cargo of 2.200 tons rape on Feb 11, 2018. At the end of the Mühhhamer bend the master remarked that the enginie capacity was reduced, and at river km 2271,00 it totally failed so that the barge had to be emergency anchored. It turned out that a repair on site was impossible. The front barge was anchored on site, and the pusher barge was taken in tow by an Ukrainian tug to the port of Deggendorf, arriving there at 12.40 p.m. The whole removal operation was completed in the evning. At 6.45 p.m. the "Rhein 1 SL" was taken from Deggendorf to Straubing, where shee was berthed at 11 p.m. German report with photo: http://www.pnp.de/lokales/landkreis_deggendorf/osterhofen/2832430_Schubverband-muss-notankern.html
