[edit] Channel Tunnel Terminal

I have changed the box for next station to "Channel Ferries". Previously the box stated that the next station was "Calais Ville via Channel Tunnel". However, the English side of the Channel Tunnel is at Cheriton, to the north of Folkestone. This can be verified by going to the Ordnance Survey Site's Quick Map facility and searching for Folkestone: the tunnel can be seen diving into the ground at one end of track loops at the top of the map. The tunnel does not begin in Folkestone. Actually the French terminal is at Sangatte so it doesn't go into Calais either. Britmax 22:19, 17 March 2007 (UTC)


However, if the VSOE puts its passengers on a coach and takes them to the Tunnel terminal it does. Or can be said to. Whatever. The moral is either read the article properly or don't edit at this time at night!! Britmax 22:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
