# Court suspends Ouigo minimum services for strike 29 October 2026 at 18:47 > The Audiencia Nacional has halted a Ministry of Transport resolution, forcing Ouigo to cancel 40 trains and impacting 20,000 passengers. The **Audiencia Nacional** has suspended a **Ministry of Transport** resolution regarding minimum services for the upcoming **Ouigo** drivers' strike. This judicial intervention forces the **SNCF**-owned operator to cancel all 40 scheduled trains across the affected dates. The strike, called by the **Semaf** union, is set for October 30, November 2, 6, and 9, plus December 4 and 8, 2026. While the Ministry initially mandated a 72% service level, the court's ruling means Ouigo cannot guarantee any departures for October 30. This disruption impacts nearly 20,000 passengers booked with the French railway group. The total cancellation of services highlights a significant legal shift in how industrial action and minimum service requirements are managed within the transport sector. #OuigoStrike #TrainCancellations #SpainTransport [#Semaf]() [#AudienciaNacional]() ## Related news ## [Madrid rail strike suspends three Cercanías lines]() 29 October 2026 at 12:12 ## [Renfe drivers call 24-hour strike over safety]() 28 October 2026 at 18:42 ## [Renfe train drivers to strike this Thursday]() 26 October 2026 at 16:58 ## [Renfe and Ouigo drivers announce October strikes]() 16 October 2026 at 19:56 ## [Ouigo train drivers announce six days of strikes]() 8 October 2026 at 14:07
