> Leider müssen wir aktuell feststellen, dass die Deutsche Bahn sich nicht an die im VRN beschlossenen kundenfreundlichen Regelungen gebunden fühlt.

It's now too late for Marcellus Williams, but it's not too late for Robert Roberson. On Oct 17, Texas will execute him for a crime he absolutely did not commit. Make it a big deal. https://youtu.be/ifpEfj1_hzQ
