Hello, Do you know why end up EC from Prag to Hamburg? For example EC 178/177/179 ends Berlin and last EC from Hamburg to Prag go in 8:19?

Hello!
I think that this is related to the demand on the Hamburg-Berlin-track on non-peak-times. There is an hourly service by ICE. ICE is 30 min. faster than IC/EC on this part caused by highspeed(200<->230km/h) and additional stops in Wittenberge, Ludwigslust and Büchen(some +Hamburg-Bergedorf).
Also the Kopenhamn-ICE cutted down the 378/379 to Berlin wich was extendet from there to Stralsund/Binz replacing an national-IC. In the EC-times runs now the Kopenhamn-ICE.
I think an other aspect is the profit wich DB wants to make, so the cutted the EC in Berlin with conection(opposite site of the platform some min. later) to ICE to/from Hamburg. This cutting brings 30 min. journey-time reduction combined with higher fare...
In general there is still a good service on the relation Hamburg-Berlin-Dresden-Praha -> Budapest/Wien, but you have to chance the train!
2005 in decembre the Berlin-Hamburg track was opened for 230km/h and just six months later the frequency had to be raised from IC/EC and ICE, each every two hours, to ICE every hour plus IC/EC every two hours caused by unexpected high demand.
This upgraded track is a real success! As seen in timetables.
If there is no high demand during the day, DB is cutting down services. A huge number of national trains run not any more, caused to "demand" and "profitability".
-> But this is in general an other topic and highly political!
HAve a nice weekend!
