On the news last night, BART unions announced that they had settled and would return to work today. A BART spokesperson said that they may be able to have trains rolling at 4am, but perhaps not full service. I'm afraid the death of two people who were struck by a train over the weekend helped to spur the settlement. The two men were inspecting track and were struck by a train running under computer control. The operator was a "trainee," which must mean a manager being trained as a scab.
I worked from home today.
I took the photo on Friday in the Embarcadero Station. During the first part of the strike, the station had hand-lettered signs.
