It's become a critical battle in a wider war over how the railways are staffed in future.
The government wants to save money and that inevitably means changing the roles of some of the people who work there. Moving to "driver-only-operated" trains in franchises is a way to cut costs.
The unions say that threatens jobs, so they've drawn a line in the sand. No more driver-only trains.
Both sides have a lot at stake. Whatever happens on Southern could set the tone for other rail franchises coming up in the future.
Commuters trying to get to work during the latest Southern rail strike have been venting their frustration.

Vinod Budhathoki is a military athlete who's going to Rio, not to take part, but as part of a programme to inspire future Paralympians.
He lost his legs and an index finger in May 2010 after stepping on an IED while on patrol in Helmand Province and now has two prosthetic legs. The soldier from Maidstone is hoping to compete at the 2020 Paralympics.

That's not great news for anyone trying to get on a train today during the strike.
But it is good news for anyone who's taken the day off.
Here's my forecast.
