As far as I can tell, it would be physically possible to introduce to South East train high speed train service from Ashford International to Charing Cross via HS1. The 395s would use HS1 to Southfleet / Fawkham Junction. Journey time from Ashford to Charing Cross would be 50 mins.
You'd have a faster service from Ashford to London Bridge, Waterloo and Charing Cross stations. But there would be nowhere useful to stop between Ashford and London Bridge.
Surely this kind of service is worth a shot, even if only once a day in each direction for commuter traffic. And no £££ supplements, please !
