First London to France Eurostar debut was in 1994 and the very first London terminus station was at Waterloo (originally called Waterloo international at the time until 2007 thus moving to St Pancras in which named St Pancras International from 2007). Plus Eurostar operated a third rail where no overhead wires were available in the South Western Mainline. It did switch to pantograph when approaching and joining the HS1 line where overhead wire were available
If you start viewing the video from the thumbnail on your homescreen the subtitles say that music is playing when the first train leaves the station which is funny and weird
Great video Kieran. It's a great Station with good views on the France side. I love the 373s and seeing them fly through is a great sight 😊⛅🌳🍃🚄
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed and yes I agree.
Wonderful film Kieran, thumbs up as always, don't know when Eurostar began, but they used Waterloo
Thank you Thomas! Yes you're correct.
Great video
Thank you! 😀

Correct indeed! I remember watching older footage of the 373s (E300s) operating past Vauxhall on the third rail.
@@KTVTransport I even remember going on one out of Waterloo to Paris, again back in 2005!
Great vid next do new cross
The Eurostar services first commenced in 1994 and they used London Waterloo.
Correct!
Eurostar commenced operations on 14th November 1994 from London Waterloo (Platforms 20-24)
Awesome Footage Bud :) I believe Eurostar services started in 1994 and their terminus point at the time was London Waterloo.

Keiran, 395002 'Sebastian Coe' is the name of the train
Any Eurostars passing through at Ebbsfleet International but like Bruxelles (Belgium) stops here but what is going on here Keiran
Brilliant video here! I think you should go to Banbury in the CML, just a suggestion
Thank you! I shall look at that one.
