Eurostar services to and from London experienced delays on Thursday morning, 12 November 2026, due to a bomb alert at Calais-Féthun train station in northern France. International rail traffic was affected, with trains temporarily unable to pass through the station.
The Pas-de-Calais prefecture stated on X that the situation was being assessed and advised caution. Eurostar confirmed that some services were delayed at the request of French authorities.
Train services resumed later on Thursday morning after the Pas-de-Calais prefect announced that the situation had been verified and road traffic was gradually resuming. Several St Pancras departures were shown as delayed due to the temporary closure.
