SNCF TRAFFIC. This Thursday, February 16 will be a new day of mobilization against the pension reform at the SNCF. How do I know if my train is cancelled? When to know the disturbances?
[Mis à jour le 13 février 2023 à 15h04] The intersyndicale has called for a new day of strike and interprofessional demonstrations against the pension reform this Thursday, February 16, 2023. The four main representative unions at SNCF, which are the CGT Cheminots, SUD Rail, the CFDT Cheminots and the UNSA Railway have decided to join the movement.
Are major disruptions to be expected on Thursday on the large, medium and small lines of the SNCF? THE traffic forecasts will be communicated 48 hours before the start of the strike. Travelers who must take a TGV or an Intercités this Thursday will be informed of the cancellation or maintenance of their train by email or SMS in order to exchange their ticket free of charge or be reimbursed in full.
Through a communicated published on February 10, “the trade unions CGT Cheminots, UNSA-Ferroviaire, SUD-Rail and CFDT Cheminots reaffirm their total commitment, and that of the railway workers, in the large-scale social movement which is settling in the country for the long term” by participating “massively to the demonstrations” and by acting “through the strike on February 16, 2023 to broaden, amplify the mobilization and prepare the necessary follow-up to bring down this reform”.
Travelers on canceled TGV and Intercités trains receive the information via e-mail or SMS between 24 and 48 hours in advance (provided they have provided their contact details when booking). On the other hand, users of TER without a connection do not receive SMS. It is advisable to verify the information by informing its train number the day before and just before departure on the SNCF site.
SNCF users can quickly check the traffic situation and find out if a particular train has been canceled or is leaving late. For information on TGVs, the telephone number provided is 0 805 90 36 35.
