Last day of strike at SNCF, threat for the following weekend. One in two TGVs for this winter holiday crossover weekend.

150,000 travelers, out of the million who were supposed to travel, were unable to take their train during the three days of strike. Some travelers on the Paris-Lyon line fell back on the trains of the railway company Trenitalia which were 8% more full than last year. “We deplore the strikes in the rail sector. They keep travelers away from the train, the most ecological mode of transport, especially during periods when they need it most,” said a T Renitalia spokesperson.
