Delays expected: German rail strike to affect trains running via Hungary
Traffic information service Mavinform, citing German railway company Deutsche Bahn, said on the MÁV Group’s website on Monday that travelers should expect longer travel times in the case of several international train services running through Hungary due to a rail strike by German train drivers.
The strike from Tuesday 2am until Wednesday 2am will affect the Budapest-Stuttgart-Budapest, Budapest-Vienna-Salzburg-Munich-Budapest, Budapest-Berlin-Budapest and Budapest-Hamburg-Budapest services, Mavinform said.
Tickets purchased by March 11 for train services running to, from or via Germany on March 12 can be refunded free of charge.
