“It sees the return of the iconic star, inspired by Étoile du Nord, the original train service linking Paris, Brussels and the Netherlands and Eurostar’s very first logo”, says a clearly proud Gwendoline Cazenave. pic.twitter.com/NjV2AkA7IQ

Personally I don’t believe the new Eurostar is an improvement.

In a way, as a European, I can see the connection with train Etoile do Nord (excuse my circumflex omission) but Eurostar is a global train brand and carries many different nationalities.

How many of the latter will realise the significance ?

For the uninitiated it’ll be more of an Easter egg than an echo of Étoile du Nord (which admittedly I’d not heard of until today), but I do like how the spark forms an ‘e’ for Eurostar. Some passengers will notice, some won’t…

Hannah has just posted the BTUK report.

Some have expressed surprise that the liveries of Eurostar and Thalys are kept separate.

Only the new Eurostar brand name is being posted on both.
