Seine-et-Marne: sabotaging railway signalling

Traffic disrupted for TGV trains between Paris and the South-East: A possible “act of vandalism” for the SNCF
France3, March 28, 2023

Delays and patience… The South-East axis was affected all day Tuesday, March 28, by “a prolonged track intrusion” linked to the demonstrations against pension reform at Gare de Lyon in Paris, another at Gare Saint-Charles in Marseille and “a signaling failure in Seine-et-Marne,” said a spokesman for SNCF Réseau. “An investigation is underway into the causes of this incident, which could be linked to an act of vandalism,” he added.

In a TGV taken by a journalist from Agence France Presse, a controller spoke of “sabotage”. But it is still impossible to determine with certainty the causes of the incident, which forces TGVs to use the classic line – and not the high-speed line – between Paris and Saint-Florentin (Yonne).

In January, cables were set on fire in a signal box in Seine-et-Marne, paralyzing all traffic at the Gare de l’Est in Paris.
