Eurostar trains top speed?

[scooterscot]

Just looking up a trip to London, only over 2 hours from Munich.

I suspect that's only one leg of the journey.

About time direct trains from LOndon to places other than France. The tunnel is 20 years old this week - but still only runs at half capacity.

A bit of a warning for HS2 there - It might be ready by 2032 but there will be no real benefit until 2062. Can't the government did some more infrastructure projects like road schemes, cycle ways, power stations etc. to get the economy going?

Oh I forgot - all the money has been given to the bankers. Silly me.

I suspect that's only one leg of the journey.

Yes - that's just Brussels to London. It's ten hours from Munich.

Wasn't German railways running trials into St Pancras recently?

I seem to remember that, yes. But not at 300mph

Here you are. It doesn't have anything to say about timescales though.

Connecting Britain by high speed rail to new destinations in Europe

Deutsche Bahn plans to establish a direct services from London to Frankfurt via Brussels and Cologne as well as to Amsterdam via Rotterdam. Using the latest version of its highspeed flagship Intercity Express (ICE), the direct rail service will reduce the travel time from London to Cologne and Amsterdam to less than four hours and to Frankfurt in just over five. Deutsche Bahn will use the newly build ICE 3 (class 407).

Here you are. It doesn't have anything to say about timescales though.

The German flagship will come to a grinding halt when it hits the British/French flagship tunnel.

So what happened to the time difference between Munich and London? I'm guessing these are local times and one of you muppets wrote the code.


Also- you appear to be looking at standard class. AYSYACOTBAC ?
