Merkel Visits Deutsche Bahn Trainees

BERLIN - AUGUST 25: Wheel assemblies for high-speed ICE trains stand outside an ICE repair facility during an event to celebrate the induction of new trainees of German state railways Deutsche Bahn on August 25, 2009 in Berlin, Germany. Deutsche Bahn has been plagued with technical problems in the wheel assemblies of some of its train systems, which has led to delays and technical recalls across the country in the last two years.
