Eurostar suspends all Europe trains over power issue during holiday travel

Eurostar has suspended all services connecting the UK to Europe due to power issues in the Channel Tunnel, disrupting holiday travel. Passengers were left stranded as trains from London to Paris, Amsterdam, and Brussels were cancelled.

A Eurostar spokesperson stated, “There was a power supply problem in the Channel Tunnel followed by a shuttle train coming to a halt inside.”

Stranded travelers expressed frustration and disappointment as they sought alternative transport. Many faced challenges finding flights or buses due to high demand and fully booked options. The incident adds to recent criticisms of Eurostar's service quality and pricing.
