  Train engineers seeking higher pay went on strike Friday in New Jersey, triggering travel misery for New York-area commuters in America's biggest metropolitan corridor.The transportation company expects the strike to predominantly affect daily commutes for about 70,000 New York-bound passengers, while also disrupting the travel of many thousands more along its extensive network.

A train strike in Germany has caused significant disruptions to travel, with long-distance, regional, and commuter trains being affected, leading to a chaotic situation for travelers. The strike, initiated by the GDL union, is part of an ongoing dispute over working hours and pay, with the union demanding a reduction in working hours from 38 to 35 per week without a pay cut. This strike has not only impacted train services but also led to increased road traffic as people seek alternative transportation methods. The German railway operator, Deutsche Bahn, has criticized the strike as unnecessary and harmful, while the union remains firm on its demands, indicating that further strikes could occur if their demands are not met.
