If you take the high-speed Eurostar from London to Paris or Brussels, from which London terminus will your train depart?
Eurostar is a high-speed railway service connecting London with France and Belgium.
Since 2007, the London terminus has been St Pancras.
St Pancras Station
The other London rail stations mentioned in the question have had a prominent role in providing train services to France, however, they do not currently provide Eurostar services. From November 1994 to November 2007, Waterloo was the London terminus of Eurostar. Many years ago Golden Arrow services to France departed from Victoria. Trains to Dover (connecting to ferry services) are also available from Charing Cross.

Tom Salvador, Please remember that this is an INTERNATIONAL trivia site, and the USA is really only a Small part of the world. This is a great opportunity to learn about our fellow humans, their cultures & histories.

Tom Salvador, educate yourself instead of being ignorant.

tesla WHY do you keep repeating the answers like a parrot?

I wasn’t in the Napoleonic wars but I know who won!

dianemcqiinn, bad for you. You could actually learn something!

Lucky me! Travelled from Paris to Waterloo in 1997 (our French taxi driver reckoned the British never let them forget who won the battle) and from St Pancras to Paris in 2013. Great trip!

You still have to go from Dover to Calais via the Chunnel to get to France.It's the only way to get to mainland Europe via train.

What train does one take to get from New York to Boston? I don't know,and I'm American,but Southern. Train questions would limit correct respondents to locals.

I didn't know it had shifted from Waterloo station.

Karin Johansson, you are 1 of the rudest people on this site. First to complain about too many NORTH American questions and 1st to put Americans down. You are immature,ignorant and rude.

Not being an international traveler, these quizzes show how limited I am.

When I was in England this was not an established service.

I went Paris from Waterloo but emigrated before it changed to St. Pancras. Oh well my bad luck.

First time we did Eurostar, we were in the embarkation area where there was a group of 20 or so men all dressed as Frenchmen with striped shirts, berets, and each had a loaf of french bread under his arm. I took a picture, and was swarmed by security, wanting my camera... I had taken it in a security area...the guys were brits on their way to play soccer against a french team, in some kind of pub league. After looking at my pics, the security folks released me and my camera.
