    That was just ridiculus. Fair enough we have really bad weather but they just kept pileing more and more trains in. They could have easily send in a train with water,food and medical supplies.

    Exactly! Can you imagine the panic! I felt sorry for the small children all huddled on the floor trying to sleep! It seems ludicrous to me in almost 2010 that high speed trains such as Eurostar have a problem leaving freezing cold conditions on one side of a tunnel meeting warmer conditions in the tunnel causing condensation and all the other problems that ensued! Surely the designers, engineers etc had thought of that possibility before the Eurotunnel launch?! Seems crazy when we have the first nip of Winter, everything seems to come to a grinding halt. Heaven help us if we have a real snowfall with massive snowdrifts. We can't seem to cope with a bit of rain or snow - chaos, standstills, rivers bursting banks, floods, traffic mayhem etc.
