The train does seem a fair bit faster on the French side of the Channel Tunnel. It’s certainly a bumpy ride, on the other side. Kent must be a lot flatter.
Otherwise the experience is something of a let down as there is no fanfare, the train is ever so ordinary (with a totally rubbish buffet car) and Waterloo a terrible dump.
I don’t know why, but I somehow expected the Chunnel to feel special.
