A more intriguing question is when are Eurostar trains going

This *very old news* suggests they do not want to stop there -

"[Rob Holden, chief executive of LCR] said that Eurostar had yet to
make a final decision on where its trains would stop but an
announcement would be made in early summer."
No such announcement ever came, did it?


Nope - in fact, I'm 99% sure that not one Eurostar press release since has
even mentioned Stratford International - which doesn't mean that Greater
Forces Won't Prevail - they just might!
