Eurostar Brussels service cancelled until Monday

19th February 2010 Eurostar travel update Friday 06:00

Due to an accident between two Belgian commuter trains on Monday the 15th of February and the presence of the investigation team on the site , all direct services between the UK and Brussels are suspended until Sunday 21 February inclusive. Services are likely to remain disrupted until 26 February inclusive. We therefore advise travellers between the UK and Brussel to postpone or cancel their journey.

You will be able to exchange your tickets for a later date or have them refunded.

If you need to travel we are currently operating a limited coach shuttle service between Brussels Midi and Lille Europe (1h30min) and operating a reduced timetable between UK stations and Lille Europe.

Our Paris services are running normally.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Please keep on checking eurostar.com regularly for updates.
