For Wednesday and Thursday, the situation looks complicated and, above all, less clear.
In effect, only the Autonomous union of train drivers (SACT) filed a notice. A very minority union within the public company, the SACT brings together train drivers but, potentially, remains capable of seriously disrupting rail traffic.
There too, the working conditions, the shortage of personnel, the lack of means, the dilapidated state of the equipment are singled out.
For Wednesday, the SNCB announced that the trains will run in all the provinces. In total, about half of the trains will carry passengers: 1 IC train (connecting the main cities of the country) out of 2; 1 S/L train (suburban and omnibus service) out of 2; a very limited number of P trains (morning and evening rush hours) will run.
