Swiss trains are also affected: German train drivers want more money and go on strike

class=”sc-29f61514-0 fwWrRV”>

The strike will last until 18:00 on Thursday.

There will be chaos on the Deutsche Bahn rail network in the next few days: The German Locomotive Drivers’ Union is calling on its members to go on a 20-hour warning strike. It runs from 22:00 on Wednesday evening until 18:00 on Thursday.

Deutsche Bahn reacted angrily to the strike plans; The next round of negotiations was originally supposed to start on Thursday. “This is an unreasonable expectation for rail passengers. This strike is completely unnecessary,” said DB Human Resources Director Martin Seiler. The train drivers’ union is ignoring agreements and acting irresponsibly.

leaving early

Cross-border trains between Switzerland and Germany are also affected by the announced strike. SBB announced this via X on Tuesday evening. Previously purchased tickets remain valid for a later date.

Travelers will also have the opportunity to enhance their travels thanks to a special concession from Deutsche Bahn. In this context, SBB recommended that you leave early enough to reach your destination safely before the strike starts at 22:00 on Wednesday.

555 euros more per month in wages

In collective bargaining, the union is demanding, among other things, 555 euros more per month for employees and inflation compensation bonuses of up to 3,000 euros. The sticking point is the demand that fully paid shift workers’ working hours be reduced from 38 to 35 hours. (pbe/SDA)
