At least Eurostar will get less people using the service. No matter
what you say, for day trippers from the continent, St.Pancras may as
well be on the backside of the moon.

I'm prepared to be proved wrong, but would expect that for a very high
proportion of Eurostar passengers the change in terminal won't make
enough difference to precipitate choosing a different transport mode
in place of Eurostar. Most would use Eurostar from any location
that's in zone 1, and has bus and tube connections. I shall miss the
approach through Vauxhall alongside the river, and the international
station at Waterloo, but will continue to use Eurostar nevertheless.
