Lots of delays and cancelled trains on Eurostar to Brussels today. Does anyone have any idea why? The 6.47 out from London was fine but subsequent ones were delayed or cancelled and now the same is happening in reverse for trains from Brussels into London...

But the only beneficiaries of those later arrivals in london would be Londoners as other people would find it difficult to get a connection at that time - so they wouldnt use such a service.

London has a population of over 8 million (and within the commuter built there are substantially more), so it would still benefit a lot of people.
