"The Mirror" continues in his report on the big guns - and provides the credibility of the Deutsche Bahn in question. He accuses the company to have the development costs in the billions of project Stuttgart 21 deliberately lied.An accusation is not entirely new, as editor-in SWR Wilm Hüffer shows.
The thrust of the article seems clear: If the train have said about the true cost of the project, the untruth, the question arises whether the political partner, the state of Baden-Württemberg to be deceived. Whether the Baden-Württemberg State Parliament has voted on a project - without knowing its true cost. If it were so, then it would be a godsend for the Greens in local government - but not a new topic.
Even once a magazine has tried to prove this. End of 2010 it was the "star" who has brought similar charges against the web. The train then reacted similarly to today's report on the "mirror" the company said it was nothing unusual about that in previous years times the cost figures appeared. Possible risks would cost calculated by constantly. It just came out sometimes higher numbers - but without that you really expect with the additional expense. The car turned out so angry.
Documents show cost increases
But with the current "mirror" report, the company may not be quite so easily done. Because the magazine is based on numerous ground-internal documents.For the first time can be observed using documents from a number of years, how the Group could escalate the cost of the project slowly Stuttgart 21: According to exceed these costs in early 2005, the mark of four billion euros. An intermediate state, the Deutsche Bahn CEO Ruediger Grube only three and a half years later made public - as all contracts were already signed.
Current construction cost increase is no longer in the calculation
Once again, argues the train, then they have only calculated the potential risks - no real additional cost. But there are indications that contradict this view. After SWR information the web has for example been trying since 2002 to curb the relentless rise in costs, mainly through savings. It came out at that time, however, only very small amounts. Quite unlike the later claimed huge savings. Even the railway declined since 2004 to account for the current increase in construction cost planning - all indications that the sky's air was more that the strong increase in the cost of the project had become reality.
The report of the "mirror" provides important new evidence - namely that the train early so calculated that Stuttgart 21 is much higher than officially announced.
