Eurostar suspends all Europe trains amid peak travel season, London-Paris route among those hit | World News
Home Eurostar has suspended all train services in Europe amid peak travel season between Christmas and New Year, with the London-Paris route among those hit. The train services were suspended on Tuesday after a power supply issue in the Channel tunnel, thus sparking chaos, AFP news agency reported. “There was a power supply problem in the Channel tunnel, followed by a shuttle train coming to a halt inside,” a spokesperson for Eurostar said. “All journeys to and from London are suspended until further notice,” AFP quoted the spokesperson as saying. Train traffic will progressively resume Tuesday afternoon, the Channel tunnel's operator Getlink said. Following the postponement of train services between London, Paris, Amsterdam and Brussels, passengers were left stranded trying to look for alternative modes of commute and routes. Eurostar train services in Europe which are not using the Channel tunnel, including between Paris and Brussels, have also been cancelled, its website showed.
