The trouble will unfortunately continue. After a landslide, which occurred during the passage of the Kirk depression over the country, train traffic will not be able to resume immediately between Paris and the Marne.
It is line 1, also called the Marne valley line, which is concerned. Traffic on the high-speed line is not affected and is operating normally. But for the classic line, where TER trains run which connect for example Paris, Épernay and Châlons-en-Champagne, no direct train can run.
A subsidence of the embankment at Trilport, near Meaux in Seine-et-Marne, prevents all traffic in both directions, both for TER, Transilien or freight trains, between Meaux and La Ferté-sous-Jouarre. A situation which will continue for “at least two weeks”indicates the SNCF on October 13, 2024.
Substitute coaches are put in place between Meaux and La Ferté-sous-Jouarre, but this causes a significant increase in journey time. “We invite you to limit your travel as much as possible during this period”specifies the SNCF.
