Were you perhaps the chap at the front by the First Class, with the orange jacket, who also took shots down the inside of the train? No, not me. |

2018, Roland Perry remarked: Thanks for all the railway pictures... Someone else was on the train whose only picture was of a cupcake... Ah, but mine was the first picture posted, and the first mention of cupcakes Here's a bit more cupcake stuff; originally intended to be filming the entry into the tunnels, the chap had just begun walking down the aisle handing out cupcakes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kswOMOpSG68 -- Roland Perry |

Here's the departure board at Cambridge, for the first southbound
service, with novel (for passengers, anyway) station descriptions for St Pancras and London Bridge. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DXCJ1lUW0AAUQk9.jpg -- Roland Perry |

I didn't bump into him either. I suppose there more on the very first (southbound) service through the new Canal Tunnels; it certainly looked that way from the video you linked. I was surprised how empty the first northbound service was, at least at my end of the train; perhaps it was busier near the front? |

Yes, the front coach was busy, with many photographers. -- Roland Perry |
