Living in interesting times as always. Gare du Nord has been evacuated due to an unattended baggage. Armed police are everywhere. Walking chaperoned through the empty Eurostar platform was eerie.#garedunordevacuéepic.twitter.com/DovIwOqOg7
We missed our Eurostar due to SNCF delay. Got our new tickets. Through security. Then: All of gare du nord evacuated. Now on pavement with 1000s of others. Bomb squad here & suited up. I thought our first holiday W/O kids might go smoother.#garedunordevavueepic.twitter.com/s5viUrrBZL
Transport Express Regional (TER) tweeted that transport from the station has been interrupted, while the company running the Paris Metro specified that trains were not running in either direction between Paris Gare de Lyon and Paris Nord.
The Paris Metro group said traffic was expected to resume at 5pm local time (3pm GMT) and confirmed that the incident was related to an item of unattended luggage.
The station, one of the largest in Paris, also receives the Eurostar train from London and serves Charles de Gaulle Airport.
