BERLIN, September 25 (RIA Novosti) - Several lines of Frankfurt's suburban train service were held up early on Friday after a drunk man fell onto the rails, breaking his leg, local TV reported.

The 26-year-old called the emergency services, but was unable to explain his whereabouts. Until the man was found, the S-Bahn was forced to delay around 100 trains, and cancel 52.

The incident is believed to have cost the train service tens of thousands of euros.
