According to the company, the collective bargaining negotiations between Deutsche Bahn and the German Locomotive Drivers' Union (GDL) have failed again.

The union said it was in talks.

Despite “far-reaching concessions” and the “use of two experienced moderators,” the GDL did not allow itself to be moved “a millimeter,” according to an official DB press release.
