Railway passenger traffic starts again after strike. GDL train drivers' union has prematurely ended its multi-day strike on Deutsche Bahn passenger transport.

The strike was actually supposed to last until Monday evening at 6 p.m. in both passenger and freight traffic. However, the railway and the GDL agreed on Saturday night to an early end and new negotiations from February 5th. Both sides stated that the goal was to reach a collective bargaining agreement at the beginning of March. The payment of a 1,500 euro inflation compensation bonus in March has already been firmly agreed.
