Regional Victoria commuters facing major delays as V/Line workers strike

Thousands of rail passengers in regional Victoria are facing significant travel disruption today as industrial action brings a halt to V/Line services.

There will be no trains moving for 13 hours today as the Rail, Tram and Bus Union (RTBU) hold a work stoppage across the network from 3am until 4pm.

V/Line has urged people only to travel if they need to help ensure the limited services that will be running are free for essential journeys.

There will be no V/line services today in regional Victoria until 4pm due to a strike by rail workers. (Nine)

A limited number of coaches will run from first service until about 5pm.

Delays of two hours or more are expected including extended wait and travel times.

The union is seeking an improved pay deal for its members and has been negotiating with V/Line management since last June.
