A Eurostar train travelling between London and the coast passes by a stretch of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link under construction on the outskirts of Ashford, Kent. * When the first stage of the CTRL is completed - scheduled for October 2003 - the trains running on the new track will shave 15 minutes off the journey time: when the second stage which will enable trains to run to and from St Pancras is finished by the end of 2006, trains will take just 35 minutes to complete the 68 mile journey to the coast. As well as shortening the journey, the project, estimated at 5.2 billion pounds will double the capacity. New international stations will be built at Stratford in east London and Ebbsfleet in north Kent, and the new railway will also serve the existing Ashford International station. 02/09/01 New high-speed track designed to cut Eurostar journey times from London to the Channel Tunnel will be built by a joint venture led by engineering group Alstom, it has emerged. The project forms the second phase of the new Channel Tunnel Rail Link route, which will see Eurostar services running from London's St Pancras to the Tunnel from 2007. 28/07/03 The UK rail speed record is set to be smashed this week when a Channel Tunnel Eurostar train travels at 205mph. The existing record is 162.2mph by British Rail's ill-fated tilting Advanced Passenger Train in December 1979. On Wednesday July 30, a Eurostar train will try to pass this speed on the first section of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link which opens to passenger services in September. 30/07/2003: The UK rail speed record is set to be smashed this week when a Channel Tunnel Eurostar train travels at 205mph.
