Railway Workers on Strike
joined later by the students who walked out of their "high school" classes
in sympathy.
The demonstration at the intersection where we are living WAS NOT the
primary rallying point.
The Figaro 9 March 2016
Police cars blocking avenue Bosquet in order to control
the flow of traffic before and during the demonstration.
Our corner cafe where we never have eaten or had hot
chocolate
Confédération générale du travail, CGT
General Confederation of Labour
Political advertising bus?
Getting more and more crowded as people get off the Metro and join
the demonstration.
Someone decided it would be a good idea to lights some flares.
After awhile the smoke dissipated.

SUD-Rail
a second union or société
All set to go just when the crowd is thinning.
Much as this man in the middle reminds me of the Professor on a cold day,
it is not he. It is some one else.
Filling the balloon with air
We missed speeches from this truck...if there were any.
Demonstrators coming up from the Ecole Militaire Metro station

After the rally ended. The same intersection
From an old newspaper article, the railway workers on the job?
