ICE trains to Germany will be canceled due to German strike, says NS

NL Times  

The international ICE trains between the Netherlands and Germany will be canceled from Sunday evening to Tuesday night due to a major national strike by German rail workers, a spokesperson for Dutch national railway NS. Railway staff in Germany will stop working for a 50-hour period beginning on Sunday evening due to a long-running clash over a collective bargaining agreement with Deutsche Bahn and other railway companies. Deutsche Bahn said it expects the 50-hour rail strike to begin on Sunday evening to cause a "massive disruption" to rail traffic in Germany and elsewhere in Europe. In addition to passenger train disruptions in Germany and neighboring countries, Deutsche Bahn also expects that freight transport in Europe will be severely disrupted by the strike.
