EuroTunnel delay (1 Viewer)

Seems others cannot work that out

Actually it wasn't that busy in traffic terms just that something had held up the earlier trains , when it moved again everything from a to g all boarded at the same time.
We were f so not a lot later than we should have been

It goes to show the drop off in traffic through the Tunnel. Trains A to G traffic all on one train.

I wonder if the earlier trains were cancelled because the low volume made it uneconomical to run them?

Since we went over on day 3 or the new tunnel world, we have been held up on both sides quite a few times, in the tunnel twice.

Last year on the bikes we were delayed in Calais an hour and even once on one of the down ramps to a train when Kent Police needed an empty carriage to transport a prisoner bacl to UK...

We have been going on it for over 12 years two or three times a year apart from the last two and it is the first time we have ever had a delay , as others have said usually earlier.
They seem to be doing a lot of building work there now, the part that used to be motorhome parking is all barriered off for some reason.

Never been delayed at Dover. The trick is not to go at peak holiday time!

Or Fridays...BUSBY.

Hi GAVLAD

I just bought a Eura Mobil 770 (2005) with this [ solenoid +9 volt emergency battery ] type of lock.
Have similar problem. Decided to take off the inside panel but can not find any screws hole or indents to
identify the panel mounting points. You posted in 31 July 2014 about it. Did you find out how these panels come off ?

I assume he means this one, although I don’t see how it relates to his query

Hartal door

Hi, I've read that some motorhomes boast having a Hartal door. Apart from quoting the manufacturer's name, what's so good about a Hartal door? Is it security or thermal properties which is worth boasting? (Door in question is on a Burstner) From the uninitiated, I thank ye Gav
