Heli crash on rail lines in France?

Morning good people

I was watching the evening news a couple of days ago, and this chap from Eurostar rail said that the trains were delayed due to a "helicopter crashing on the lines in France". I haven't heard any moore and figured I would find something on PPrune. Any news on this?

No, he said that there were train delays because of the wrong type of helo on the lines....

GMTV stated that delays were due to a helicopter hitting powerlines in France.............

And then later due to salt spray on the conductor lines... complete with picture of men washing the lines down with a waterjet.
