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.

So, by your logic, lots of people also avoid going to Paris for the
day because of the location of Gare du Nord?

I suspect that most day trippers would get off the train and look at a
tube map or jump in a taxi to get to what they want to see first. As
KX/StP has more tube connections than Waterloo not only can people
reach more central London destinations in one hop, they should also be
able to find their way back to the station more comfortably.

I wonder just how many E* travellers unfamiliar with London have ended
up on the southbound Bank branch of the Northern line expecting it to
take them to Waterloo...?
