This station has proved to be something of a white elephant so far, not least because its trains go no further than Faversham, Margate and Dover. No Eurostar trains to and from the Continent stop here. The original intention was that it would serve as a London railhead for Eurostar trains linking other parts of the country with Continental destinations, thereby enabling them to avoid St Pancras.
