The white-collar union TSSA is balloting members at DB Cargo UK, citing a complete breakdown in industrial relations. The dispute involves an organiser reportedly barred from visiting depots and 16 employees at Trafford Park and Wakefield who are due to transfer to a joint venture with Maritime Transport on April 1.
The SPD party in Germany has backed the union.
A possible strike at DB Cargo UK, the leading British rail freight operator, could disrupt rail freight used for feed and grain movements inside the UK. The price effect is minor because the dispute is confined to a single company and is still at the ballot stage.
