Update: Deutsche Bahn has failed for the time being in its attempt to stop the planned train drivers' strike by legal means. The Frankfurt Labor Court rejected a temporary injunction against the GDL's call to strike. An appeal against the decision is possible at the Hessian State Labor Court.

Thanks again Mark for keeping us current on the DB strike situation. We travel by train and our whole trip may revolve around the strike.

In Frankfurt, the U-bahns and Strassenbahns are on strike from Wed. through Friday this week. Today it was the S-bahns. Makes getting to work and home again a bit tough.
