Eurostar

All stations connect to other rail services

Eurostar is an international high-speed rail service in Western Europe, connecting Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom through the Channel Tunnel.

The service is operated by the Eurostar Group which was formed from the merger of Eurostar, which operated trains through the Channel Tunnel to the United Kingdom, and Thalys which operated entirely within continental Europe.

Eurostar has transported over 400 million passengers since services began in 1994, including a record 20million passengers in 2025. The operator is exploring future network expansions and aims to double passenger numbers between 2022 and 2030.

Since 1998, Eurostar has won multiple World Travel Awards, including the World's Leading Passenger Rail Operator on 15 consecutive occasions, alongside awards recognising its environmental and sustainability practices from organisations including Network Rail, the Sunday Times, PETA, and the Chartered Institution of Railway Operators.
