I am quite looking forward to making this journey once Eurostar move
it will make a change from the mad dash Euston to Waterloo and return
I have to make in either direction.

On the other hand, those of us that live only 20 minutes from Waterloo
may decide that it will be quicker to fly to Paris from Heathrow than
treck across London to St Pancras.

OK, I know you can't please everyone ... but I thought it was a pity
that the original idea of continuing to run some Eurostar services from
Waterloo was abandoned.

It may be just me, but I always had a chuckle at the thought of French
people arriving in London on the Eurostar alighting at a station called
Waterloo! St.Pancras just doesn't have the same ring to it.

I was campaigning for the Eurostar to run into Charing Cross, which of
course would be renamed Trafalgar Square Station - purely to reduce the
confusion to tourists, of course
