The = pullman strike was a strike of Rail road workers against any train that had a pullman car attached to it. They would not service them. George pullman was cutting the hours of his works and keeping the prices of the company town the same. so the works could not afford to live there so they went on strike. The president at the time Gorver Cleveland sent in US troops to break up the strike because most train had stopped due to lack of maintance.
