Blog2009 ≫ Can only find first class high speed rail travel from Folkestone to London so far

Expensive!

See the journey planner1, just testing it out with a commuter type service on Monday, I can only find first class tickets available for the new high speed rail link. And even then I can't find a train that gets me there particularly quickly. Can see one train home that will get from London back to Folkestone in an hour, which is good, but only first class tickets available for it. Gives people a chance to get used to how expensive this service is going to be I suppose! Possibly it's just that there are no advanced regular tickets for it, but there's a chance that it's only first class service on this new train. Anyone know for sure? Hmm, there are better places I could be asking this I think.
