The strike action is centred on a maintenance depot where there is a dispute over changes to working conditions. It will affect the high-speed TGV routes running from Paris' Montparnasse station to Bordeaux, Rennes and Nantes and is expected to continue until Sunday. The French rail operator estimates that 6 out of 10 services will be running, but there are likely to be delays. The strike has been declared by the SUD rail union and is centred on the Châtillon repair depot, which is responsible for the maintenance of the TGV and Ouigo trains.
