[dba-Tech] OT: Change from DST

Hi all

Our national railroad operator, DSB, has invented a new way to comply with the change in local time when switching to normal time: At the first station reached after 02:00 the trains stop for one hour!
Passengers are offered a free light meal, soft drinks and coffee, a carpet, and a thriller novel during the stay. There you go - or not.

The idea is of course, as those trains would arrive too early, to spare a set of other trains that would depart on scheduled times in the morning.
However, the question remains what they will do in spring when we change to DST? Bring the trains to warp speed at 1 o'clock to catch up?
