rail strike

Train workers' protest

A rail strike is a work stoppage by railway employees, typically to protest wages, working conditions, or labor disputes with rail companies.

Because rail networks move freight and passengers across entire economies, rail strikes can disrupt supply chains and commuter travel on a massive scale: The rail strike halted grain shipments for weeks.
