Eurostar passengers are facing a second day of severe delays after two people died on the railway track in France and then cables were stolen.
The high-speed rail operator has told passengers to cancel or postpone their trips on Wednesday, with a number of services cancelled and delayed in both directions on lines connecting London with Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam.
Eurostar said there was already knock-on disruption on Wednesday after two people died in separate incidents on the LGV Nord line on Tuesday, but services were further impacted after cable was stolen on the same line.
It added that repairs would hopefully be finished by around 16:00 local time (15:00 BST) on Wednesday.
The theft near Lille, which French media says is of around 600 metres of copper cables, is causing trains to be rerouted, leading to extended journey times.
