The SNCF Paris-Granville line will not leave this Friday announces the SNCF. The trains which provide the connection between Paris and Normandy and which serve the Argentan and Briouze stations in Orne remain on the platform until further notice. There is still too many trees lying on the tracks after the passage of the Caetano storm, trees which did not resist snowfall and gusts of wind. SNCF agents are hard at work but they will not have finished clearing everything during the day.
More than a hundred trees fell on the rails in Normandy
The meetings follow one another at the SNCF and decisions are refined based on feedback from the field. Since very early this Friday morning, reconnaissance trains have been running on all lines in the Normandy region. At each obstacle encountered, the agents and the on-board loggers cut and clear the rails. Around a hundred agents were mobilized to remove more than a hundred trees that had fallen on the tracks in Normandy.
The Paris-Caen-Cherbourg line should run again in the afternoon but he is still too early to announce a precise time warns the SNCF this midday.
