Eurostar set for competition as Virgin Trains granted Temple Mills rail depot access rights

Although Eurostar owns the depot, under UK and EU-derived rail legislation, key railway infrastructure must be made available on a fair and non-discriminatory basis. This includes maintenance depots if they are considered essential facilities.
