There have been talks for years about regional Eurostar services but the polticians constantly fail to push the situation, why should they when they are keeping the people of South East England happy, the rest of the country can go whistle as is the case with most of this countries decision making in Westminster
Apparently a junction has been built at St Pancras to join the rest of the country up but no immediate plans to use it. If anyone is planning a Eurostar trip later in the year be aware that St Pancras will be the new station instead of Waterloo.
