My Railway Hobby plan subscription lapsed due to an unpaid invoice. My n8n service was paused around April 28, 2026 at 00:20 EEST. I paid the invoice today at approximately 20:54 EEST, and Railway redeployed my n8n instance. However, it created a new empty volume instead of reattaching my existing one, and all my workflows are gone.

Service: gentle-empathy / n8n / production

URL: n8n-production-232e.up.railway.app

Deployment ID from previous removal: f44eabda

The volume loss occurred less than 10 hours ago. I understand Railway maintains a 48-hour grace period for deleted volumes. I am requesting immediate manual recovery or reattachment of the previous volume containing my n8n SQLite database (database.sqlite) and workflow data.

Please do not purge or overwrite any existing volumes associated with this service while this request is being processed.

Timeline:

- ~00:20 EEST April 28, 2026: Service paused due to unpaid invoice

- ~20:54 EEST April 28, 2026: Payment successful, service redeployed with empty volume
