Rail strike in Bavaria affecting rail services in the Czech Republic

An unannounced strike of rail drivers from the private company Vogtlandbahn has brought to a halt rail transport between Bavaria and the Czech Republic. A spokesman for Czech Railways said trains on the lines from Prague to Munich and Prague to Nuremberg would be terminated in Domažlice. The open-ended strike has affected other rail connections as well since Vogtlandbahn operates a number of interstate trains. Czech Railways is providing updated information on its web page.
