[HIGHLIGHTS] Paris: traffic severely disrupted at Gare du Nord and Gare Montparnasse, delays to be expected

An electrical failure first hit the Gare du Nord (10th arrondissement of Paris) in the late afternoon. A power supply fault in St-Arnoult also leads, according to BFMTV, to a major mess.

The situation should at least last "until late evening," simply says the SNCF on Twitter. The day before, traffic had already been affected because of a torn catenary at Montparnasse (15th arrondsment) in Paris.
