A GERMAN rail strike has ended with freight services
starting to return to normal despite a lack of a lasting deal with management.
The GDL union (Gewerkschaft Deutscher
Lokomotivfuehrer or the union of German train drivers), while not
ruling out a renewed strike, said it was hopeful of an agreement with
management by Christmas.
GDL union train drivers union began their strike against
state-owned railway Deutsche Bahn on November 5.
DB
Schenker, the forwarding arm of Deutsche Bahn,
confirmed to Lloyd's Loading List, that the strike had ended.
A court had ruled the strike to be legal, but no
agreement has been reached with management on the union's demands for a five
per cent pay hike and a shorter work week.
