Train traffic in the Netherlands will be significantly disrupted on Tuesday for the fourth time in eleven days due to a strike at NS. This time, train traffic is at a standstill in four provinces. Negotiations between trade union FNV and NS have failed again.
In Flevoland, Gelderland, North Holland, and a large part of Overijssel, no trains are running on Tuesday due to the strike. Only the sprinter between Amsterdam Central, Schiphol, and Hoofddorp will continue to run four times per hour in both directions.
The strike also affects international train traffic. The Eurocity Direct, the IC Berlin, the Eurostar London, and the Nightjet night trains are canceled. The Eurocity towards Brussels, the Eurostar Paris, and the ICE to Germany are only partially running.
The south of the Netherlands is least affected by the strikes. In the provinces of Zeeland, North Brabant, and Limburg, the majority of trains are running according to the normal timetable. But many trains from the south to other parts of the country run less frequently or are completely canceled.
Train traffic from Rotterdam towards the south is largely possible, although the timetable between Rotterdam Central and Breda is limited. Between Rotterdam and The Hague, trains are running normally. From The Hague to Leiden, the number of trains is again limited.
A train still runs between Groningen and Utrecht, but only to and from Groningen Europapark station. Due to works, Groningen Central is temporarily inaccessible. Train traffic around Utrecht is limited. Below you can see on which routes no or fewer trains are running on Tuesday.
New negotiations between trade union and NS fail
According to trade union FNV, NS is still not meeting its demands in the collective labor agreement conflict. NS increased the wage offer from 2.55 percent last Friday to 3.25 percent per March 1, 2025, and another 2.75 percent per March 1 next year. But FNV demands a wage increase of 7 percent on an annual basis and wants all employees with a heavy occupation to be able to make use of an early retirement scheme.
“The trade unions that are striking tomorrow are sticking to their original demands. We won’t be able to figure it out like that,” said NS CEO Wouter Koolmees. On Monday, talks between NS and trade unions took place again, but according to Koolmees, FNV and VVMC refuse further negotiations.
“We wanted to sit down to come to a good collective labor agreement for our colleagues, but you can’t negotiate on your own,” says Koolmees. He reports that NS will now make a final offer, so that the unions can submit it to their members.
The fourth NS strike in eleven days starts on Tuesday at 4:00 AM and lasts 24 hours.
