The “Saarbrücker Zeitung” (Saturday edition) he said, so far the train had met no GDL demand. Should it continue on the part of the railway movement no give in the months since deadlocked pay dispute, “our members will be ready to strike again”.
Passengers must also set up the weekend on thinned timetables and bear the consequences of the so far longest strike in the history of Deutsche Bahn AG. After the proposed strikers there are loud train immediately the usual full range, because initially, not all trains stand where they were needed. The strike was a “great success”, said Weselsky talking to the newspaper.
300 800 long-distance trains on the weekend
In the long-distance transport, the train will use on Sunday some 300 of the usual 800 trains. About 50 of them would be scheduled shortly and stood until two hours before departure at the internet timetable. The railway network was “open and navigable”, the body responsible for infrastructure, DB Netz AG was at least in principle the green light.
The rail freight operator DB Schenker Rail called no exact time until normal operation. The parked freight trains would traversed as quickly as possible, said a spokesman in Frankfurt. In the previous, shorter wave of strikes we have used for the “cleaning up” until mid-week.
According to the company should go to the seven days of strikes in the freight each about two-thirds of the usual features. Particularly important and time-sensitive goods such as parts for the automotive industry have been preferred.
Bahn boss apparently negotiated in the background
Deutsche Bahn CEO Rüdiger Grube announced in the months since deadlocked pay dispute, a second initiative, after his agent Matthias Platzeck had been rejected by the GDL. Before strikers he would “ignite the next level,” Grube said a report in the “Stuttgarter Zeitung”, according to on Thursday night in Esslingen. But mine also dampened the expectations of his “Plan B”: “The solution will not be.”
From the Group’s sources said, on Friday and the weekend is expected no press conference or other public announcement. Apparently mine wants behind the scenes trying to take up the thread again.
