On a conference call the morning after her painful third-place finish in the state, the dispirited candidate...

Meanwhile, union leaders are furious, saying that Deutsche Bahn should have made these fixes years ago. They accuse the rail operator of cutting corners to save money, putting the safety of its passengers and employees at risk.
