I was looking to see if any 373s have had their full midlife refurbishments. Does anyone know if they have apparently they're to get a new livery, interior etc.
Thanks:)

I'm not sure to be honest. No-one has mentioned anything about it starting and the first one will probably take a while - up to a year? :)

How am I being rude? When youre coming back to me with blatent ignorance making assumptions that its got nothing to do with snow proofing, when it has.... Then you give me the whole underlined and bold with the 'uh oh hes getting angry' face.

If you wanted to address me personally, a PM would do.
New livery is also coming with a new name for the 373 unit. I do have pictures somewhere.

According to an article from May 2012, "The refurbishment of Eurostar's existing fleet will begin in September this year, and there will be a progressive roll out of the new-look trains from early 2013".

But will not be running 320kmh as infrastructure hasnt been certified for that running speed.
Its similar to the 374 yes.

If you aren't going to show the pictures then please don't say you have them. There's nothing more annoying than someone claiming they have something then not showing it (if you don't want to/can't, then please, don't mention it!). I normally wouldnt say anything but this seems to be happening a fair amount lately.

As for the refurb, it'll be odd seeing a 373 in a different livery considering how long they've been in the existing one!
