Default Eurostar to quit Waterloo

There is a world outside of London where people live and commute. You seem

looking at arrivals in the northern termini on a weekday morning would
suggest otherwise.



You have missed the point. That is, the customer profile of Eurostar
passengers from the UK would indicate that there is an exceptionally
high proportion whose journeys originate in the SWT corridor.

To be absolutely fair, could that not be because Eurostar, so far, has
been more convenient for those whose journeys so originate, and with the
move to St P that demographic might change?
