英吉利海峽隧道是英國與歐洲大陸之間唯一的鐵路連接。它與法國的 LGV Nord 和英國的 High Speed 1 一起。隧道工程於 1988 年開始，英國君主伊莉莎白二世和法國總統弗朗索瓦·密特朗於 1994 年 5 月 6 日正式開通了這條 50.5 公里（31.4 英里）的隧道。它由 Getlink 擁有，該公司向歐洲之星收取使用費。出於安全原因，歐洲之星列車在英吉利海峽隧道內的運行速度降低至 160 公里/小時（100 英里/小時）。自歐洲之星服務推出以來，英吉利海峽隧道內發生的火災造成了嚴重的中斷和取消，例如 1996 年[55]和 2008 年[56]。

該服務由歐洲之星集團運營，該集團由歐洲之星（運營通過英吉利海峽隧道開往英國的列車）和大力士（在西歐運營）合併而成。該營運商正在探索未來的網路擴展，目標是到 2030 年將乘客數量增加一倍。
The Channel Tunnel is the only rail connection between Great Britain and the European mainland. It joins LGV Nord in France with High Speed 1 in Britain. Tunnelling began in 1988, and the 50.5 km (31.4-mile) tunnel was officially opened by British sovereign, Elizabeth II, and the French President, François Mitterrand, on 6 May 1994.[3] It is owned by Getlink, which charges a toll to Eurostar for its use.[52] Within the Channel Tunnel, Eurostar trains operate at a reduced speed of 160 km/h (100 mph) for safety reasons.[53][54] Since the launch of Eurostar services, severe disruptions and cancellations have been caused by fires breaking out within the Channel Tunnel, such as in 1996[55] and 2008.[56]

The service is operated by the Eurostar Group which was formed from the merger of Eurostar, which operated trains through the Channel Tunnel to the United Kingdom, and Thalys which operated in Western Europe. The operator is exploring future network expansions and aims to double passenger numbers by 2030.[1]
