FS says cancellations possible at weekend strike

Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) rail
company said Friday cancellations were possible during this
weekend's strike by autonomous trade unions.

   
A national strike of the staff of the FS Italiane group has been
proclaimed by some autonomous trade unions, from 9 pm Saturday
to 9 pm on Sunday 24 November, it recalled.

   
"The strike could have a significant impact on rail traffic and
lead to total and partial cancellations of Frecce, Intercity and
Trenitalia Regional trains", warns FS.

   
"The effects, in terms of cancellations and delays, could occur
even before and continue beyond the end time of the union
protest", the company points out.

   
Trenitalia, taking into account "the possible significant
repercussions" on the service, invites passengers "to find out
before going to the station and, if possible, to reschedule the
trip".
