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.
