Channel Tunnel Lorry Fire
Author: SW1200

Anybody have more info on yesterday's lorry fire in the Channel Tunnel? I'm particularly interested in the emergency response efforts. From what I gather it seems to have been a successful effort. Thanks.

Eurostar running a full service albeit things will be running late today [Monday] as only one bore open for use.
Eurotunnel hopes to restore service to the other bore by Tuesday.
No where as near as bad as previous fires, only a smouldering load has been reported.

Was on 15:04 to Brussels Sunday - two hours late, but with a wonderfully laconic train British conductor (nous sommes arrive ... enfin ... en France) - we have arrived, at last, in France whose style in three languages seemed to keep everyone calm. 17:56 back was 80 mins late on Monday.
