Trips to Disneyland Paris is getting a huge upgrade. Eurostar has announced €2 billion investment in up to 50 new double-decker trains built by Alstom Group. The new fleet will be called "Eurostar Celestia". Eurostar has confirmed an order for 30 trains, with an option for a further 20. Eurostar says Eurostar Celestia will have a bespoke design to capture the unique, premium experience Eurostar customers expect.
Seat capacity will increase by up to 20%. Which will result in about 1,080 seats per service. The first trains of this new fleet are expected to arrive in January 2031, with six trains being operational starting in May 2031.
The new trains will operate alongside Eurostar's current fleet of 17 e320s, bringing the total fleet to 67 trains. The new fleet will create around 350 more highly skilled jobs at the Temple Mills depot in London.
