It’s a complex new day that’s shaping up on the Île-de-France network this June 10th. What's the cause? A strike launched by the four main unions of the SNCF, which will impact mainline trains, but also public transportation in Île-de-France managed by the national railway company. Let’s take a quick look at what awaits us for the day.


Long journeys will be the most affected

The aim of this national demonstration? To protest against the reorganization of the company, which is causing real "human tragedies" (work accidents, sick leaves, and even several suicides) among railway workers. Through this social movement, the strikers hope to halt the ongoing changes and reopen the dialogue around negotiations.

salary scales.

To achieve this, they will hit hard on the main routes, with only two out of three TGVs running, and even more significant disruptions on certain TER lines, resulting in only one train out of five operational (particularly in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Brittany, and Hauts-de-France). Lastly, for intercity trains, expect one train in two throughout the day.


And in Île-de-France ?

As for the public transport in the Île-de-France area, let's start with the good news : the metro, managed by the RATP and not by SNCF, will not be affected, nor will the buses and trams. However, this is not the case.same old story for all Transilien lines which will be heavily disrupted for the entire duration of the service. Expect between one train out of two and one train out of three everywhere.

And when it comes to the RER, it's the same battle. The A line, which is fully managed by the Paris transport authority, should sail through without any problems. However, the RER B will be affected on the northern part (above Gare du Nord heading towards Roissy), a section that belongs to SNCF, with a three out of three service maintained, which will have repercussions on the whole line (on average, two trains out of three). The RER C, D, and E, on their end, which are entirely under SNCF's control, will also be greatly disrupted, with only one train out of three expected, and even just one train out of five between Corbeil-Essonnes and Malesherbes. If you want more details, it's right here ! In any case, good luck to everyone!
