Train traffic between London and Paris came to a halt on Tuesday after a person was struck and killed by a Eurostar train in apparent suicide. The incident occurred in northern France, prompting widespread disruption and stranding hundreds of passengers on both sides of the Channel.
Travelers reported long delays and crowded stations as trains were cancelled or held at terminals. Some passengers were advised to seek alternative travel arrangements, while others faced hours of waiting with limited information.
French authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the fatality. It remains unclear when full service will resume, though Eurostar has indicated updates will be provided as the situation develops.
The incident marks a rare but serious disruption to one of Europe’s busiest international rail routes.
