Awesome I saw the old euro star trains a while back :)

Beautiful the class 373👌💯

Pairing up of 395s was common during the London Olympics and Paralympics in 2012 - being there and getting a free HS1 valid Travelcard was a bonus and a good way of scoring some for haulage!

No matter how many times I watch Eurostars, they still stagger me how freaking fast they are! how comes you sorta disappeared for a while Tornado?

Excellent video as usual. Two comments: Eurostar trains are incredibly long and very dirty. Looks like the rest of the train companies can teach them something. There seems to be never a dull moment at Ashford International. But Manchester Piccadilly is still my favourite location.

They have to be very long: all trains that pass through the Channel Tunnel must be at least 375 metres long. That's because there are cross-passages which link the rail tunnels to the service tunnel at 375-metre spacing. One of the safety requirements is that in the event of a fire or train failure or power surge, all passengers must be able to be evacuated through one of the cross-passages. If the train is at least 375 metres long, it will always be located directly next to one of the cross-passages, no matter where it stops, which is why all trains operating in the tunnel are that long.

Brilliant Commentary! :-) The Eurostars are my favourite. The sounds of the 373s and e320s are electrifying. The 373s are being refurbished and repainted in the Euro Colour Scheme. The Eurostars travel as far as Marseille from St Pancras. They should also go to Barcelona, Milan and Rome.

The speed limit on the HS1 between Ebbsfleet Int'l and the tunnel is indeed 300 km/h (186 mph), but because that section is so short, trains hardly ever make it up to that speed. Usually, in the UK, the trains won't go faster than 270 km/h (168 mph)

Hope HS2 never gets build

Why not? I understand it may be damaging in some places, but the overall improvement to journey times and capacity across the West Coast will be much improved, I travel on the WCML quite frequently and it does often get reduced to standing capacity so it is needed, and there isn't really much else that can improve the WCML to counter it
