There is still <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/03\/03\/world\/europe\/greece-train-crash.html\" title=\"\">lingering anger in the country<\/a> over the government\u2019s failure to put any of its politicians under scrutiny over the loss of life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Here is what to know about the strike and the enduring anger over the accident.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-2ff52b88\">What does the strike entail?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The strike involves public- and private-sector workers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Rallies are planned for Athens and across Greece as well in other cities in Europe, with protesters calling for those at fault in the crash to be punished and for rail safety to be improved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">All commercial flights to and from Greek airports will be grounded, and no ferries or trains will run. Limited public transportation will operate in Athens to allow demonstrators to get to the rally. Although taxi drivers are joining the strike, some volunteers will be offering protesters free rides to rallies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Schools and hospitals will also be affected as teachers and health care workers join the action. Lawyers and ambulance workers planned to walk out, too, while many shops are expected to close. Several popular artists have canceled planned shows.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-32bab647\">What happened in the train accident?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On the night of Feb. 28, 2023, a passenger train and a freight train collided head-on on a route linking Athens with the northern port of Thessaloniki. Many of the 57 people who died in the crash were <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/03\/02\/world\/europe\/greece-train-crash.html\" title=\"\">young students returning from a holiday weekend<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At the time, the Greek authorities blamed human error, saying that a routing mistake by a station master had put the passenger train onto the same track as an oncoming freight train. But they also admitted to shortfalls in Greece\u2019s railway infrastructure and delays in installing modern safety systems that could have averted the disaster.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The deadly episode set off days of protests as people demanded accountability and greater rail safety.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Two years later, questions remain about the exact circumstances of the crash.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A report by an independent rail and air investigation authority set up after the tragedy, whose <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.harsia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/EODASAAM_Accident_Investigation_Tempi-1.pdf\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">results were made public on Thursday<\/a>, found that delays in installing electronic signaling and remote surveillance systems played a key role in the collision, as did chronic understaffing and underfunding resulting from cutbacks enforced during Greece\u2019s decade-long financial crisis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The report also criticized the Greek authorities for flawed mapping of the crash site, a factor that it said resulted in the loss of \u201cpotentially vital information.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Investigators added that an \u201cenormous fireball\u201d from the crash, which probably killed five to seven of the victims, may have been stoked by a \u201chitherto unknown fuel.\u201d They called for further investigation into that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/prorata.gr\/2025\/02\/26\/%cf%83%cf%86%cf%85%ce%b3%ce%bc%ce%bf%cf%83-%cf%86%ce%b5%ce%b2%cf%81%ce%bf%cf%85%ce%b1%cf%81%ce%b9%ce%bf%cf%83-2025\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Polls<\/a> conducted in recent weeks showed that most people in the country <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/pulserc.gr\/1310\/%ce%b4%ce%b7%ce%bc%ce%bf%cf%83%ce%ba%cf%8c%cf%80%ce%b7%cf%83%ce%b7-%cf%83%ce%ba%ce%b1%cf%8a-pulse-%cf%86%ce%b5%ce%b2%cf%81%ce%bf%cf%85%ce%ac%cf%81%ce%b9%ce%bf%cf%82-2025\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">were unhappy<\/a> with the government\u2019s handling of the disaster.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Many <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/adedy.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025.02.05-%CE%91%CF%86%CE%AF%CF%83%CE%B1-24%CF%89%CF%81%CE%B7-%CE%A0%CE%B1%CE%BD%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%BB%CE%B1%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%BA%CE%AE-%CE%B1%CF%80%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%B3%CE%AF%CE%B1-%CF%83%CF%84%CE%B9%CF%82-28-%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%85-%CE%A6%CE%BB%CE%B5%CE%B2%CE%AC%CF%81%CE%B7.pdf\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">also suspect<\/a> a cover-up of who was responsible \u2014 a charge that the government denies, accusing opposition parties of exploiting public sensitivities for political gain.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-3f0a196c\">How have the authorities responded?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Greece has made some progress in improving railway safety since the crash. Greece\u2019s infrastructure and transportation minister, Christos Staikouras, told Greek television on Thursday that modern signals and remote surveillance systems had been added along the entire Athens-to-Thessaloniki route after the accident, with work finishing by September 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">However, a cyclone later that month damaged the systems, leaving them not fully functional on \u201ca significant part\u201d of that route. He said that the damage would be repaired by the summer of 2026 and that Greece was working on an plan agreed upon with the European Commission to improve training for railway workers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But the European Commission <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/commission\/presscorner\/detail\/en\/inf_24_6006\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">said in December<\/a> that shortcomings persisted, including a failure to comply with a European Union rail safety directive from 2016. \u201cShortcomings are systemic and also stem from a lack of safety culture within the organizations involved,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The authorities have said that a judicial investigation is continuing into who may be responsible for the crash. The dozens under investigation so far are mostly railway officials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The largest burden has fallen on one person: the station master, now 61, who is accused of the routing mistake that put the passenger train on the same line as the freight train.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He faces charges of endangering transportation safety and multiple counts of negligent homicide and bodily harm. But many in the country felt that he was scapegoated over systemic failures that were to blame for the tragedy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion
