Default Eurostar to quit Waterloo

There is nothing wrong with that suggestion. But when there isn't a business
case for two terminals then one will have to close. Closing StP isn't an
option (it would make the CTRL phase 2 rather pointless) so Waterloo has to.

Granted - but I think you'll find that the whole point of the argument
is that there *is* a business case for two terminals. This is what we
are disagreeing with - the necessity of closing Waterloo International.
We reckon that there would be sufficient passenger numbers to make
retaining it worthwhile, AS WELL AS the new terminus at St Pancras.
