Passengers were stuck for hours inside Channel Tunnel

Dozens of people were left stranded for hours inside the Channel Tunnel after a train from Calais to Folkestone appeared to have broken down.

Footage emerged showing Eurotunnel Le Shuttle passengers being evacuated through an emergency service tunnel after having to abandon their vehicles.

They were eventually transferred to a replacement train and taken to the Folkestone terminal in Kent.

A Eurotunnel spokesman said services were now back to normal.

Le Shuttle said Tuesday night's incident began when the train's alarms went off and this needed to be investigated.

A spokesman said such incidents were unusual but not exceptional - far more common on trains carrying lorries than those with private cars.
