Running Eurostar to Watford Junction and Reading (given that every
Eurostar has to be dividable to run through the tunnel, you could even
split the one train to the two destinations)


Eurostars are dividable, but I don't think they have a driving cab at
the "inner" ends. As I understand it, in the event of a problem the idea
is that everyone gets moved into the unaffected half which heads for the
end it's facing, leaving the other half behind.
