Montparnasse station: major delays this Sunday due to a lack of electrical supply

For the third time in the space of a few months, traffic was severely disrupted this Sunday, September 24, between the South-West and the Paris train station. The fault this time was due to a “broken electrical power cable” at the entrance of a tunnel in Essonne.

Train traffic was interrupted on Sunday on the Atlantic axis, causing significant delays at the departure and arrival of Montparnasse station.

Trains to and from the South-West are particularly affected, being 30 minutes to 6 hours late. SNCF hopes for a return to normal in the evening.

Many trains to and from south-west France are affected by an electrical power outage near Massy
