German train drivers' union and railway operator reach a deal in their long dispute
Neither the GDL union nor state-owned railway operator Deutsche Bahn gave details of their agreement. Both scheduled separate statements on Tuesday. GDL called drivers for Deutsche Bahn out on strike repeatedly in the dispute, which has dragged on for months. It was the most consistently disruptive of several pay disputes in the transport sector that have coincided recently.
