The train drivers' union GDL has called for the next warning strike in the collective bargaining dispute with Deutsche Bahn. Passenger traffic will largely come to a standstill for the sixth time in the ongoing wage dispute.

The new warning strike is scheduled to last until Wednesday morning at 2 a.m – unless the railway averts the strike. The railway has announced these goodwill rules for the strike: All passengers who bought a ticket for a trip on March 12 up to and including March 10 can use their ticket at a later date.
