Eurostar is embarking on ambitious plans to expand its services, introducing direct train routes from London St Pancras to Germany and Switzerland in the early 2030s. The initiative represents a significant investment of approximately £1.7 billion for a fleet of 50 new trains. Although travel times to Frankfurt and Geneva will be around five to five and a half hours, the feasibility of intermediate stops remains undecided. CEO Gwendoline Cazenave noted a rising trend of travelers choosing sustainable train travel over flying, aiming to cater to leisure and business demands in major financial cities.
