Eurostar trains to and from Netherlands cancelled for Tuesday

NL Times  

International trains from the United Kingdom were not going to run their routes to Rotterdam and Amsterdam for a second straight day after a series of entry bans effectively isolated the United Kingdom from the European Union. The Dutch flight ban was expected to remain through December 31, and it later announced it would not allow passenger ferries through the end of New Year’s Day. Eurostar trains scheduled for Tuesday between London and Amsterdam, Brussels, Lille and Paris were cancelled, as were all trains in the reverse direction with the exception of a few from Paris back to the UK. “We await further details from the relevant governments on how travel restrictions will be enforced and will continue to update our website as further information becomes available.” For the time being, citizens and residents of the Netherlands were being told to arrange for a place to stay in the United Kingdom, and were expected to solve the problems themselves. Ministers Hugo de Jonge and Cora van Nieuwenhuizen said only limited consular assistance would be available for citizens stuck in the United Kingdom this week.
