I'm sat on a Eurostar just outside the M25 stationary for the past 2 hours. The announcement has been that there is some sort of fire at the Thames tunnel.

Any news from locals would be appreciated.

A lineside fire is causing disruption near Ebbsfleet International.

Train services are currently suspended between London St Pancras and Ebbsfleet International.

This is causing delays of up to 60 minutes to journeys between London St Pancras International and Ebbsfleet International. These delays are expected to continue until approximately 22:00.

Thanks

We eventually got in to St Pancras at 22:15 a whole 4 hours late, and there were no signs of any fire on the way in, so presumably something trivial.
