Railway Workers' Strike May Disrupt Travel Across Germany Monday

(Bloomberg) -- German state-owned railway operator Deutsche Bahn AG warned that strikes scheduled for Monday may disrupt travel across the country for several hours.

The EVG railway workers’ union is planning to strike from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. to increase pressure in a pay dispute, and could continue to cause disruption “for hours” after that, Deutsche Bahn AG said in a statement Sunday. The railway operator added that it will try to minimize the impact of strikes on its customers.
