Not strictly a Eurostar on fire, it's related to a fire on the breakers yard between Wandsworth Road and the next station down the line... it closed Victoria East as well.

It wasn't a gas fire.

It was a fire in a breakers yard where there were cylinders containing gas which got warmed during the fire (the same thing that closed KX for 2 days).

And the line between Bolton and Manchester last october,

Fire service requesting line closures as a precaution is fairly frequent on the network (4ish times in the last year)
