Train network faces challenges and controversy - City-Bahn endures another disruption on Wednesday
At the City-Bahn Chemnitz station, it's strike after strike with no end in sight. The company is changing tactics once more on the 16th occasion, as stated by a representative on Monday. The locomotive drivers' union called for the strike during the weekend, but failed to provide a definite date. The length of the strike is still undetermined as well. The union is pushing for the 35-hour work week through this strike, but the municipal railway company has been steadfast in its resistance so far. It operates several lines in the Chemnitz region.
