- Filed under: travel train europe
- Date: Mar 17,2009
Eurostar, the high speed passenger train will soon be making history as the High Speed 1 project nears it’s completion. From November 14th 2007, Eurostar will move home from London Waterloo to London St. Pancras and will open a new station at Ebbsfleet, Kent. In addition to Eurostar’s new homes we will also be using the high speed line to connect with the channel tunnel and Europe at speeds of 186MPH, the fastest train service in the UK. Welcome to High Speed Europe!

With the ferry to england, that is simply the best way to cross the channel. Departure from Belgium or France. Book never to eurotunnel. Take the ferry and enjoy a mini cruse experience with a nice view. For over 150 years of ferry experience, which can count. Eurotunnel, you will lose. Enter campaign against eurotunnel. With his all in 2009 against euro tunnel. Ferry friends
ps. the ferry is much cheaper

That’s wrong. The Eurostar is able to get power from the 3rd 750V-Rail – it has nothing to do with preventing derailment.

In mainland Europe …
In mainland Europe the speed of these trains is 300 km/h. The ridiculous ’299 km/h’ which
often crops up in publications is the result of a conversion from km/h to mph and then back. If one goes on converting and back converting the Eurostar eventually grinds to a halt.

Yeah, I love Eurostar and I love this music! I am very glad we have access to Eurostar in this era and at a usually good price, too!

what are you talking about, the third rail is for derailment purposes not for power supply. High speed trails get power from overhead electric supply.
