In detail, the company removed 423 TGV out of 650 (65%), 6706 TER out of 8901 (75%) and 68 Intercités out of 74 (92%), as well as 2 Ouigo Classic Train out of 8 (25%). , that is, a global cancellation rate of almost 75%. These figures correspond to SNCF forecasts 48 hours before the strike.
Gradual return to normality on Wednesday
These data do not take into account the Parisian periphery (Transilien), which usually concentrates 40% of SNCF trains and transports 70% of SNCF Voyageurs customers. Its movement was heavily disrupted on Tuesday, with only 1 in 10 trains on many lines and many sections running only at peak hours or not running at all.
The SNCF attended a return to the normal mercredi, with the “quasi-normal” circulations sur les grandes lignes et “encore quelques perturbaciones locales possible dans certaines régions”, with in particular 2 trains sur 3 sur les lignes C et N en Ile- from France.
