24-Stunden-Ausstand: Bahnstreik in Italien - Verspätungen und Ausfälle möglich

Starting this evening, Italian travelers must prepare for disruptions in train services across the country. Several labor unions have called for a 24-hour nationwide strike by employees of Italy's national railway, Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane (FS). The strike is set to begin around 9:15 PM on Monday and end at 9:00 PM on Tuesday.

According to the railway, this could lead to delays and cancellations. Even before and after the strike, impacts on the timetable are possible, including for long-distance connections. Regional services, often used by tourists, are particularly affected. It is unclear if services to or from Germany are included. Some trains are expected to operate despite the strike.

During working days, regional services must maintain a basic service during specific time slots: 6:00 to 9:00 AM and 6:00 to 9:00 PM. Travellers should check their connections before departure.
