In an effort to give their country more of an Italian feel, German train workers will most likely be striking again starting at midnight tonight (with no planned end scheduled, so this is actually less fun than an Italian strike). The train strike includes the S-Bahn in Munich, but the U-Bahn, trams, and buses should be running normally.
The good news is that you are still likely to be able to get where you are going, just far less frequently. Some useful information:
- Munich S-Bahn strike schedule (in German) – most lines still run, but less often than usual
March 10th, edited to add: Strike averted! S-Bahns were running as usual this morning. But for how long…?
Where you ever in Italy during an “Operation Lumaca”?…(aka, Operation Snail)
Truck drivers striking by all taking to the highways & driving as slow as possible. Good stuff.
That sounds familiar. I never had a car in Italy, so I guess I didn’t pay much attention. I definitely remember a few train and subway strikes, though…
Ahhhh…more tourist Euros lost! If there’s even a hint of a strike affecting us before I book a trip, WE GO SOMEPLACE ELSE!
Hear that, Germany…Italy…France??
Switzerland is spoiling you, TBF.
