Metrolink service to be disrupted or canceled if rail strike occurs
Aside from Metrolink, businesses and the federal government are also bracing for disruptions due to the possible rail strike at the end of the week while talks carry on between the largest U.S. freight railroads and their unions.
The unions aren’t allowed to strike before Friday under the federal law that governs railroad contract talks. About 4,900 members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers District 19 voted to reject the tentative agreement negotiated by IAM leadership with the railroads, the union said Wednesday. But the IAM agreed to delay any strike by its members until Sept. 29 to allow more time for negotiations and to allow other unions to vote.
