Still don't know what you you're talking about re: abysmal. The facts are

- the distance from Berlin to Hamburg is 282km, there are 33 daily train connections, taking 1:44h or more

- the distance from Berlin to Leipzig is 148km, there are 27 daily train connections, taking 1:26h or more

The real question though is, why would you want to travel through Berlin under all circumstances ;)

I did not only mean from Berlin but from many other cities, particularly other big centres like Munich, Prague, Vienna, Frankfurt. Even Zurich has a direct train to Leipzig. Leipzig has historically been at an excellent location within Europe and still is.

Last time I checked any late evening connections Berlin - Hamburg were quite scarce. Maybe they upped it a bit then. Still, Hamburg being in the far north is not exactly great for travel.
