DB'S SUNDRIES TRAFFIC ON A FIRMER BASIS

Faced with ever-increasing competition in the less-than- carload freight field, the German Federal Railway initiated studies to determine the optimum organizational structure. The plan envisages reduction in the number of so-called Sundries terminals from 1,000 to 400 by the end of 1976. Door-to-door service will actually be expanded and no reduction in service quality is anticipated.
