Seven return trains between London and Paris will be cancelled, and five between London and Brussels, the spokeswoman said Wednesday. Cancellations will affect trains scheduled early in the morning and late in the evening, the company said.

Wintery conditions have caused widespread transport disruption in Europe, with Britain heavily hit.
