More than 11,000 exhibitors from 187 countries present their products during the world's top tourism fair running until March 13, 2011. Rail passengers in Germany are bracing for delays and cancellations on Thursday (March 10, 2011) as train drivers voted on March 7, 2011 for a strike over pay and conditions. The GdL union, which says it represents 75 percent of Germany's 26,000 train drivers, said that 92 percent of its members from state-run Deutsche Bahn and 96 percent of those working for private firms voted for strike action.
