Are trains back in fashion?

With the re-opening of St Pancras station and record numbers choosing to travel by rail – is the train the new plane?

The Queen is to formally open London's St Pancras station following a refurbishment costing 800m.

Work began on transforming the station in 2001 to enable it to accommodate domestic rail services and Eurostar trains to and from France and Belgium.

Demand for rail services has increased by nearly 45 per cent between 1996-97 and 2006-07, according to Network Rail.

Do you have any interesting stories about St Pancras? What are rail facilities like where you live? Would you prefer to travel by rail rather than fly?
