Eurostar Disruption: Floods Strand Travelers and Spark Cancellation Chaos
Eurostar train services between London and Paris were canceled due to a flooded tunnel under the River Thames, stranding hundreds of travelers during the festive season. The flooding, described as "unprecedented," was a result of Storm Gerrit, which brought strong winds and heavy rain to the U.K. No trains are expected to run for the remainder of the day, and more stormy weather is anticipated, potentially causing further travel disruptions.
