An Advantage Of Eurostar’s New Trains

I’ve stood on the unwelcoming platforms at Stratford International station waiting to catch a fast train to Kent, as Eurostar’s trains thunder by on their way to Europe.

The current Class 373 trains are not the quietest, to say the least.

This morning, Nicola Shaw, the boss of HS1, said on BBC Breakfast, that the new e320 or Class 374 trains are a lot quieter.

So at least twenty years of development has brought another advantage, to those living along the route.

Hopefully, the trains for HS2 will be even quieter.
