Virgin has unveiled a first look at its planned cross-Channel trains, with striking black and red designs and ambitions to take on Eurostar from 2030.
The company intends to run 20 daily return services between London, Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam, adding almost 7.5 million seats a year to the route. It has signed a deal with French rail giant Alstom for 12 new high-speed trains, with promises of a more distinctly Virgin experience on board.
