HS2 tunnel fire: Workers shelter in digger near Maple Cross
BBC says the fire involved ' a vehicle used to ferry staff in and out of the Chiltern Tunnel near Maple Cross in Hertfordshire'. Three workers took shelter in the safety shelter of the TBM. Fire did not damage the TBM.
Official HS2 site has no mentioned of the fire, strange enough no information...

As illustrative as ever, the tabloid The Sun publishes the video of the inferno in the HS2 tunnel.
