Belgern ferry damaged in collision

In the foremidday of June 16, 2019, the "TR 030", 74 ts (ENI-No.: 32201070)was in collision with the Elbe ferry in Belgern which was just crossing the river with passengers and cars on board. The ferry which is crossing the fairway with a wire was pushed to the side by chance, so that the outcome was less serious than feared. The fire brigade Belgern attended with 45 men. The ferry was brought back to the shore and spilt some hydraulic oil which had to be removed. No one was injured, but the ferry had to be taken out of service. It was thought that the Czechian master of the psh boat made some mistakes such as giving no signal and driving too fast.
