Germany to privatise Deutsche Bahn

Germany’s ruling coalition has agreed to partly privatise its federal rail system by 2009, transport minister Wolfgang Tiefensee has announced.

Tiefensee said lawmakers have agreed to sell the railway without its track, which will stay in the hands of the German government.

But Handelsblatt reports that there is still disagreement within the government over the terms of the privatisation.
