Eurostar passengers making the 306-mile journey between London and Paris will soon have their journey time cut by 15 minutes, after the company unveiled a fleet of new high-speed trains. The trains will go into service at the end of 2015.
The launch comes on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the
start of Eurostar services in November 1994, when the journey time was just
under 3 hours. There were just two trains a day when the service started.
Today, there are between 15-17 daily services to Paris.
The e320s, created by Italian design house Pininfarina, will
be equipped with free WiFi throughout
and customers will have more space per seat, each equipped with power points
and a USB socket.
The number of passengers travelling on Eurostar's trains
topped 10 million for the first time last year, giving it around an 80% share
of the travel market between London and Paris, and London and Brussels.
In another direction, May 2015 will see the start of a new
year-round Eurostar service to Provence, stopping at Lyon, Avignon and
Marseille. That will be followed at the end of 2016 by the launch of a route to
Amsterdam with stops in Antwerp, Rotterdam and Amsterdam's Schiphol airport
along the way.
