IZY en Thalys
Re: IZY en Thalys
SNCF verschroot haar Atlantiquestellen omdat er asbest in zit, heb ik begrepen. En de nieuwe stellen zijn nog maar pas besteld, ik kan me voorstellen dat er een tekort dreigt. Eurostar weet dat Thalys niet van plan is om hen op hun hoofdroute te beconcurreren. Bij hen is dat ene oude stel veilig.

Sorry for posting in English.
I see that Thalys and Eurostar to/from Brussels are delayed by 2-3 hours due to what www.thalys.net calls an "Individual involved in an accident on the SNCF network".
Are they not able to use the classic route via Tournai like E* did before the high speed line opened?

Re: IZY en Thalys
Depends, in France, you can give the driver a description of an alternative route, and send him along, in Belgium, though, drivers aren't allowed on lines they don't know, and few drivers know the classical route via Tournai. The only solution would be to add a second driver who does know the route. So it depends where the incident took place, if the line is interrupted between Paris and Lille, it's quite common to divert trains over the classical line (with up to 2 hours delay, mind you), but in Belgium, you need a little more.

Er is blijkbaar een stoffelijk overschot gevonden bij Wannehain. Dat is net over de grens in Frankrijk:
