On November 5, 2026, a nationwide rail strike in France disrupted train services across the country. The strike affected high-speed TGV routes, regional TER lines, and RER trains in the Paris region.

Freight rail operations were also impacted during the one-day industrial action. Passengers faced cancellations and delays and were advised to consider alternative travel options for that day.
