The business premier class coach of Eurostar’s new Siemens e320 train is seen at St Pancras station in central London, yesterday. Eurostar, the company that runs passenger trains through the Channel tunnel between London and Paris, said it would buy seven additional e320 trains from Siemens for about $473m. The company placed an order for 10 in 2010, the first of which is due to enter commercial service next year, enabling the company to add new routes.
