Deutsche Bahn delays major Berlin to Hamburg rail line renovation indefinitely

The Deutsche Bahn has announced that the complete renovation of the major rail line between Berlin and Hamburg is being delayed indefinitely. The company says the work will now take longer than originally planned.

In Berlin, the airport halted all takeoffs and landings for a second day due to severe winter weather and icy conditions. Separately, the chemical company BASF is planning a global hub in India, which is expected to lead to job cuts at its Berlin location.
