  • 24/08/2022

Dozens of passengers were stranded inside the Channel Tunnel for hours after a train from Calais to Folkestone appeared to have broken down.

Footage emerged showing Eurotunnel Le Shuttle passengers being evacuated through an emergency service tunnel after their vehicles were forced to be abandoned.

They were eventually transferred to a replacement train and transported to Kent's Folkestone terminal.

According to a Eurotunnel spokesman, services are now back to normal.

According to Le Shuttle, the incident began Tuesday night when the train's alarms went off, and this needed to be investigated.
