@jon #Gemini have been in the UK press this week promoting a Stratford-Ebbsfleet-Europe competitor to #Eurostar again. Difficult to see how they can finish/reverse/start at #Stratford without major track works, running empty into #StPancras and back out, or resignalling the Camden Road ramp to enable HS1-only stock on it. Then there's the problem of fitting border posts into Stratford's constrained pre-Brexit station space.

#CrossChannelRail : Day 2, #Lille - #London - #York - #Harrogate

Thanks to #eurostar delay, no waiting in #KingsCross. Could check platform from #nationalRail live board, had QR code ready, the only thing was to jump above Mr FirstOut who had built a wall of suitcases at carriage door - then remember, twice to the right in #StPancras.

#LNER #London #Edinburgh :
💺 have reservation at front of train, I stopped midway.
🔌 that's alternating current 😵‍💫

⏲️ 20 min delay "due to operational issues" in #Rotterdam

I have a 30-min connection between #StPancras and #KingsCross, could still work… Staff announced delay and went thru carriage, I could get a Railteam delay certificate (not sure it's valid for my #LNER train, but worked last time)

I'm on my way to Brussels for FOSDEM at the weekend.

Last night’s hotel room in London has to be the smallest I’ve ever stayed in. That said, it wasn’t pricey, and it was conveniently close to St Pancras for catching the Eurostar to Brussels this morning.

Speaking of which, the Eurostar waiting area at St Pancras was surprisingly quiet when I arrived at 7:45.
