One union leader said there might be grounds to end the strike
France faces a second day of travel chaos as transport unions continue a strike in protest against President Nicolas Sarkozy's pension reforms.
More trains were running than on Wednesday, but millions of people still struggled to get to work.
Paris transport workers have voted to continue striking on Friday, and rail workers will vote on the issue later.
Mr Sarkozy has called for a speedy end to the strike, saying conditions for talks with the unions have been met.
Germany also faces rail disruption in its worst ever transport strike, with only two-thirds of trains running on main lines.
Passenger and freight train drivers have taken the action over a pay demand.
Deutsche Bahn says it will not make a new pay offer, and drivers' unions have raised the prospect of open-ended strikes.
