Two separate problems caused trouble for the trains around the Lake Geneva region yesterday morning.
A power issue stopped trains from running to Geneva Airport – and then a damaged track in Bursinel in canton Vaud meant trains had to move slowly across the section.
A couple of Geneva bound services had to stop in Lausanne and passengers were forced to change.
Swiss Federal Railways say both problems were fixed by midday and trains started to run normally again.
