Sydney's trains will run 24/7 this weekend to prevent a rail strike over pay and hours.

Sydney's trains will run 24 hours this weekend after the government agreed to the Rail, Tram and Bus Union's demands to prevent a potential rail strike. The union seeks a 32% pay increase and a 35-hour workweek, accusing the government of delaying negotiations. While the 24-hour service aims to benefit commuters and put pressure on the government, it may disrupt essential track maintenance. Light rail services will still face planned disruptions.
