Electric. High speed trains are always electric, and the only trains allowed through the Channel Tunnel are electric.

Eurostar is the brand name of the company running high speed trains London-Paris and London-Lille-Brussels through the Channel Tunnel.

Eurostar uses the stations: St. Pancras (London), Gare du Nord (Paris), Bruxelles Midi (Brussels) and Lille Europe.

Currently these are the only passenger trains operating through the tunnel.

The Eurostar takes 2 hours 15 minutes between London and Paris.
