Eurostar to Waterloo - The Last Day 13th November 2007

- During the afternoon we see Eurostars at Beckenham Junction, Kent House and Brixton. The last passenger services to depart Waterloo were the 18.09 Paris and the 18.12 Brussles which was named "Waterloo Sunset" are seen at Vauxhall. The group of men taking photographs at Vauxhall were involved in the construction of Waterloo International. And that was it, the end of a short and interesting railway era. As the last arriving passengers passed through Waterloo, security equipment was being dismantled for reuse at the new Ebbesfleet International. Overnight, operations moved to St Pancras and the first train departed just after 11am. Waterloo International is now mothballed. The Eurostar trains quickly had their third rail equipment removed.
so odd to see a 373 running without overhead wires, thanks for recording this historical video!
We will honestly never see anything like this again. High Speed International trains which should be going 186mph crawling through Victorian lines into London on 3rd rail power. This shouldn’t have happened, but it did.
When EuroStar first started, France was decades ahead of the UK in terms of infrastructure, LGV Nord was built for High Speed. When you emerged out of the tunnel and into England, the railway,trains and stations would make you think you were in the 1960s or 70s.
Here we are now and Class 373s are a rare sight
Some more have come back into service now Eurostar is running more trains
it's an end of 3rd rail era eurostar!
I have travelled on the Eurostar before 14 years ago when I was on a school trip to Disneyland Paris and I remember going to Disneyland after departure from St Pancras during Eurostars second year out of St Pancras
To echo comments that have already been made, this is an excellent video, as are all of yours. Thank you for taking the time to put it together. Even though I live in Texas, I've had the pleasure of being a passenger on Eurostar four times over the years, and have fond memories of each trip. I look forward to experiencing St. Pancras and the new high speed line in the future.
Did you get to go? I’m hoping to do a cross-country trip to Switzerland from St. Pancras next year.
I travelled on a Eurostar in June 1994. My dad told me it was packed to the doors with people heading for Europe. Also in 1999, I remeber racing a Eurostar out of Waterloo on a Southwest Trains class 421. Really Emotional ending to a short era of Britains Railways! 5*****
That was very sad when it was the very last final day. No longer on DC 3rd rail any more, all services are transferred to st Pancras international on the HS1
Finally a video that wasn't made with a potato
Eurostar ist sehr cool. Danke für das Teilen des schönen Zugvideos. Grüße aus Japan.
Today Eurostar’s are now in the new terminus St Pancras
The music was playing on loud speakers. I ran the camera purely to record enough sound then assemble the clips of vision to fit the same length. If you look at my other Eurostar film at Brixton I do the same thing. The music was playing at a market stall then I put clips to it.
A great video Well put together. I was glad I made at least a few trips from Waterloo before the final day came.
Top video. Me the wife and our two boys went out on one of the last and back in on one of the first. Top video. Many thanks...
brilliant video. thnx for posting. great way to remenber them!!!
I have taken the Eurostar to Paris Gare du Nord, from Waterloo International. Early HS1, 3rd rail/overhead cable through Ashford
I once got to go from waterloo, its cool to see the old logo
Oh wow, I just turned 1 on the last day.
It's called "Time To Say Goodbye" by Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli
I was born 2 weeks and 4 days before Eurostar closed at Waterloo and moved from AC 3rd rail to Pantograph on the HS1 and Eurostar opened at St Pancras
It's dc third rail
what a nerd
I was talking about train paths on the commuter lines.
Shame about the Waterloo platforms though....
They got used in the end!
nice video!!
Nice vid mate
Final day of the Eurostar's using DC 3rd rail. St Pancras/Ebbsfleet/Ashford International, using pantograph on Highspeed One
I was born in 14th November 2007 back then after Eurostar left the DC 3rd rail network and Eurostar went to HS1
I was born 10 years earlier than you so I saw the news of the Eurostar’s last departure out of Waterloo before transferred to st Pancras
On se croirait dans les Années 1700-1800 😊
How long did journeys from London St Pancras to Paris Nord take?
waterloo sunset
A new track was specially constructed for the new Kings Cross Eurostar service. In 2007, The Eurostar wasn’t connected to mainline services in Kent anymore, which was causing delays for commuters into London.
I kind of wish they stayed running out of waterloo.
I hate the new trains. Love these old original ones.
great video, 5*
By the way: at 2:38 the door of the rear locomotive stands wide open ...
I can see it I think someone forgot to close the door
kereta api jaman bahela momen ini aku baru tau
Not yet. The station is still reused by SWT for their Class 373's relatives. The 458s
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Why did Eurostar go to to Waterloo rather than Victoria, as every other passenger train on that line did?
I think Waterloo was the only station that had space to build a new terminal. Victoria would have been impossible.
eurostar back to london st pancras.
diésel?
Electric but used a 3rd rail as a power source
It’s stupid they diverted it
It’s stupid that there wasn’t a High speed line from the Channel Tunnel to London from day one in 1994, but it was sad to see the last 373 leaving Waterloo after 13 year’s of running two and from Waterloo
Why? Waterloo is a dump of a station compared to St Pancras, a station much more befitting of an international railway.
I bet Southeastern and South West Trains can run more commuter services now! No more Eurostars clogging up the line....
And what is wrong with the track at Vauxhall - the train bounces!
I think it's because the the bogie frame is in the middle of the saloon coaches, meaning it's not really designed suited for trains like these.
