Eurostar orders first double-decker trains to run through Channel Tunnel | BBC News


Eurostar has revealed plans to run double-decker trains through the Channel Tunnel for the first time.

The cross-channel rail operator has confirmed it will order up to 50 trains from manufacturer Alstom, eventually increasing the size of its fleet by nearly a third.

The expansion plans would include investing heavily in a crucial London depot, it said.

But questions remain over whether the facility has enough space for both Eurostar and potential rival operators to use it.
