The German high-speed rail monopolist DB has now managed to upset both labour unions after lengthy negotiations with each of them to play them off against each other... instead of the small but powerful GDL going on annoying strikes that shutdown the rail traffic in Germany (this union represents mostly train drivers), the bigger and usually more compromise-oriented EVG also plans to go on strike.
Both labour unions complain that after slowly approaching a working compromise between the positions of the DB and the unions, the DB presented a completely devastating new proposal that was completely ignoring all previously established decisions.
