s the country's rail transportation system has totally collapsed.

What do they mean by "totally collapsed"? My impression (confirmed by the DB website) is that they have had some delays, but the main problem is overfull trains as they are about the only means of transport in Germany that is working.

Yep. Last week when I crossed Germany on train, all trains were late due to the temporary 200 km/h limit, and one ICE I satstood in was chock-full. But I did get to my destination (with a snowstorm starting when I got to Munich).
