1. Just interesting....by the end of Friday (yesterday)....the coalition gov't forming....kinda hinted in a strong way....the top level of DB (the Bahn/railway folks)....has to go. Trigger? They have made a number of promises over the past five years, and failed to get ahead.
What I found interesting this week....the Bahn has a new agenda...spending probably half-a-billion over the next couple of years....cleaning train stations, in a MORE tidy and efficient way. Now, I will say this...if you traveled around the country in the 2000 to 2010 period....most of the stations you'd enter....were marginally clean. In the past two years.....at least in the BIG stations....they've made an effort to tidy up and make things presentable. At least they are trying to present a better image.
2. German Army applications up? Well....since early 2025....it's up by 19-percent. Trigger? They say they went more heavily into advertising via social media, and it got the attention of young people.
3. We are now two years after the final nuke-energy plant closed down in Germany. The good news? This week, they established that by 2074....they expect to have finally figured out a permanent spot to house nuke waste....currently in temp locations.
