Virgin launches new cross-Channel train
Virgin Trains has unveiled a mock-up of its future cross-Channel train, with plans to launch services from London to Europe in 2030, competing with Eurostar for the first time since the Channel tunnel opened. The company has ordered 12 trains from Alstom and aims to enhance passenger experience by drawing inspiration from its airline, cruise, and hotel brands, including onboard social spaces and upscale dining. Track access in the UK is secured until at least 2040, and Virgin intends to connect its rail and airline networks, potentially transferring passengers from France.
