Eurotunnel passengers stranded underground for five hours
Eurotunnel passengers were stranded for nearly five hours at subsea level after the train broke down beneath the Channel, leaving hundreds of passengers to be ushered to a service tunnel.
The incident happened late on Tuesday, affecting the 3.50pm Eurotunnel Le Shuttle service from Calais to Folkestone.
Travellers on the service shared their experience on social media, with videos showing people walking through the alternate tunnel alongside the 31-mile (50km) rail route between Britain and France.
Some passengers carried suitcases and walked with dogs through the tunnel while travellers on the Calais side were urged to stay away from the terminal until 6am on Wednesday, leading to large queues at the shuttle terminal late into Tuesday evening.
