London, Dec 30 (UNI) Eurostar trains to and from London have been cancelled on Saturday after a tunnel under the River Thames was flooded, stranding thousands of passengers ahead of New Year’s Eve.
No high-speed services are expected to run between Ebbsfleet International in Kent, 10 miles east of London, and London St. Pancras International due to tunnel flooding near Ebbsfleet International.

At least 14 trains have been cancelled, according to information on the Eurostar website.
