  • 2005 The entire network of the Swiss Federal Railways shuts down due to a power failure in its overhead wire system (just over 95% of the railroad's network). The power failure also affects international transit through Switzerland as such intercity trains use the same system. Initial reports indicate that the power failure started with a voltage drop in Ticino (in the St. Gotthard region) that then spread to the entire system.
  • 2011 Shenzhen Metro's Line 5 opens.
