Eurostar, the high-speed train operator that connects the United Kingdom with mainland Europe, has announced that all of its services will resume on Sunday, following “unprecedented” flooding that disrupted travel plans for thousands of passengers. However, travellers are advised to anticipate further delays and crowded stations.

The recent flooding, which occurred in the Thames tunnels near Ebbsfleet International in Kent, had brought Eurostar services to a halt. The flooding issue began on Friday night, leading to the cancellation of all high-speed services. It is believed to have been caused by a burst pipe feeding the tunnel’s fire safety system, according to a water company.
