So Eurostar
breaks down.
Nearly 750 people were stuck for two hours last night after the Paris to London service came to a halt just before 11pm due to 'technical problems'.
Passengers had to wait an hour for another train. Oh, the humanity!

'Terrifying': Passenger Dan Feldman took this photo as scared passengers were evacuated from the stricken train. Several began to panic and many children were crying.
Somebody please clue me in: A train breaks down. Passengers wait an hour for another train. They climb down a short stair then up another one into a different train. They are traumatized by this. Do I have the story right?

Sounds like a typical day at the airport to me.
Erm, you're quoting the Daily Mail, well known for sensationalising everything.
They might be terrified if the lights went out in the Chunnel.
Heck Lou, that happened to me once on metro's 202 in the HOV lane outbound at rush hour on I45. It was terrifying. Oh wait, it was only about 10 minutes, but still.
Maybe Ashford is one of those places you don't want to get caught after dark. Like the suburbs of Paris, where they charmingly hold car burnings every night.
