Major disruptions to the NSW rail network are expected to continue, despite the rail union indicating a potential “breakthrough” which could end the stalemate in negotiations with the state government.
More delays and chaos is expected for Sydney commuters on the city's trains despite the rail union indicating a potential"breakthrough" in negotiations with the state government which could bring an end to the rolling industrial action.
"We've been fighting the safety of the new intercity fleet for over six years, we've been trying to get them to commit to a document that's in writing." Rail workers officially went on strike between 10am and 4pm — but Sydney Trains warned commuters to expect disruption on either side of that. New South Wales Treasurer Matt Kean lashed out on Tuesday at the rail union for the ongoing industrial action - slamming it as"absolutely shameful."
“The Government agreed to do that and yet the rail unions are still going on strike, it is absolutely shameful it has nothing to do with safety it has nothing to do with pay and has everything to do with politics.”
