Overview
- SNCF said normal circulation was expected with the first trains Monday after overnight repairs by about fifty technical staff.
- Four near‑simultaneous fires were recorded between 8:00 and 9:00 on Sunday at Cadaujac, Villenave‑d’Ornon and Ayguemorte‑les‑Graves, damaging signaling and power cables.
- Prosecutor Renaud Gaudeul launched an investigation for degradations by fire in organized group, with the gendarmerie research section assigned, noting the voluntary nature is largely favored.
- The damage forced cancellations and diversions via Dax and Tarbes, producing major delays for TGV, Intercités and TER services, with some journeys reported 7 to 12 hours late.
- SNCF offered free refunds or exchanges; separate cable thefts between Dijon and Dole led to TER stoppages and police apprehensions, and localized delays persisted Monday near Toulouse due to a level‑crossing fault.
