More than 16 Eurostar train services were cancelled today, and rail traffic was disrupted with delays of up to 1 hour and 50 minutes due to a problem with the power supply system.

Teams were dispatched on site to identify and repair the issue, according to SNCF Réseau, which told Agence France-Presse it was a “problem with the overhead contact line.”

The disruption occurred between the towns of Moussy and Longueau in northern France.
