SNCF strike: the French struggle to find an alternative. Only one train in two is in circulation this weekend, due to the SNCF controllers' strike.
Many French people have seen their trains cancelled, and are trying to find alternatives to get to their vacation spot. Car rental, carpooling, bus... alternatives exist but the specialized sites have been taken over in recent days. At least 70% of controllers on strike until Monday 8 a.m. and only one in two trains in circulation.
