A World War II bomb unearthed overnight on March 7, 2025, brought France’s busiest train hub, Paris Gare du Nord, to a standstill.

During maintenance in Saint-Denis, a World War II bomb was found 2.5 kilometers from the Paris Gare du Nord station. The Gare du Nord Bomb on the tracks halted all traffic, SNCF confirmed. With 700,000 daily passengers, the station’s Eurostar, regional, and suburban lines are down for the count.

“Traffic’s heavily disrupted all day,” Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot told Sud Radio, urging travelers to skip Gare du Nord and delay trips. The relic, dubbed a WWII holdover by RER B’s X post, sparked a police operation to defuse it, hoping for afternoon resumption. Eurostar warned, “Change your journey services are off.” The Friday timing, a weekend travel peak, amps up the chaos at the north Paris terminal.

It’s not the first wartime snag. In 2019, a bomb stalled Saint-Lazare’s western links. “Unexploded shells pop up often,” said Chloe Ternand, a traveler from Lorient. The Gare du Nord Bomb, a historical blast, snarls a hub serving international and local commuters alike. Will trains roll by nightfall? Paris waits. The Gare du Nord Bomb WWII relic, full shutdown jams 700K travelers.
