🚆💥 Eurostar chaos strikes again! All Eurostar trains were cancelled on Saturday due to flooded tunnels in southern England, leaving hundreds of New Year travelers stranded. It's the second major disruption in just 10 days!
The latest cancellations follow a wildcat strike by French unions just days before Christmas, and now the UK's Met Office is warning of more rain, snow, and ice across large parts of the country. Talk about bad timing! ❄️🌧️
At London's St Pancras station, travelers faced disappointment as Eurostar announced the cancellations would last all day. Newlyweds Nicole Carrera, 29, and her husband Christopher, 31, visiting from New York, said their plans to spend New Year's Eve at Disneyland Paris were \"ruined.\"
\"Now we won't get into Paris tomorrow until about 6:00 pm,\" Nicole said. \"Guess we'll just be wandering around the City of Lights instead.\" ✨
Eurostar said that flooding in two tunnels had \"not improved,\" after earlier cancelling all trains up to 4 pm UK time (1600 GMT).
For those affected, keep an eye on updates and stay safe out there! 🌟
