Gone are the YTCS replacement services for too often failing EuroBahn EMUs. On 2 May 2025 the deployment of N-Wagen (the older coaches) with ex-DB electrics Class 101 had just commenced and that day TCS 103004 (ex DB 101 033) pushes a replacement service through Venlo VIerpaardjes toward Mönchengladbach. 

TCS 103002 (an ex-DB 101) pushes a regional train to Hagen via Mönchengladbach out of Venlo on 6 December 2025 in the last week of TCS trains replacing unavailable Eurobahn EMUs. From 14 December 2025 Eurobahn promises to handle all services between Venlo and Mönchengladbach in an hourly pattern (which they were supposed to do anyway according to contract), but if that will pass? 
