Travel update

21 February (from 10 pm) - 2 March: strike in Belgium

Due to announced strike in Belgium, the rail service on the Belgian rail network will be limited from Friday 21 February (10 pm) to Sunday 2 March 2025 included.

An alternative train service will be put in place depending on the available staff. The detailed schedule for every day will be available on www.sncb.be the day before (details for Saturday 21 February will be available on Friday 21 February in the morning).
