Travelers faced with a new SNCF strike.

This weekend, traffic is very disrupted, with six out of ten TGVs and Intercités canceled until Sunday.

Europe 1 went to Gare Montparnasse in Paris on Friday evening to meet travelers who have to deal with this movement.

It's not easy for travelers to remain serene in front of the display board at Montparnasse station in Paris.

Many have frowned, others are annoyed because of the SNCF strike particularly followed this weekend: six out of ten TGVs and Intercités remain at the platform until Sunday.

Met by Europe 1, Clémentine says that she was to leave this Friday morning, but that her train, canceled, forces her to become impatient.

"There was a day of enormous stress," says the young woman.

The car rather than the train

If Clémentine was lucky enough to find another ticket, other travelers from Montparnasse station were not so lucky.

Among them, Nicolas who does not reach Dax by train.

He therefore planned to finish his journey by car.

"It's my father who will make the Dax-Bordeaux round trip to pick me up," he explains, adding that this trip is "an hour and a half by car one way, an hour and a half on the way back, that's three hours by car".

For the lucky ones who arrived in Paris at their destination without any problem, the question of returning on Sunday arises.

This is the case of Baptiste: "Fingers crossed! When I hear the stories of my friends, where things went wrong with their train tickets... We know that at any time, even there, this (Friday) evening, the trains can be removed!", smiles yellow this traveler.

And the disruptions will continue all weekend at Montparnasse station, since only one in two trains will run there.
