Question

Is it possible to get a eurostar train from London ,St Pancras to Cologne, Germany?

Answer 1

No, not yet. You need to get a Eurostar to Brussels and then change onto a regular train or a Thalys for Cologne. Some time in the future they will serve Cologne directly.

Should take under 5 hours. Note that Thalys trains are "extra fare" and a regular ticket is insufficient - you need to specifically book Thalys.

Answer 2

Not directly. change to Thalys service in Brussels. That's another high speed line. You can get through tickets though. Certainly easier and probably faster than flying between city centres

Answer 3

At present Eurostar only run to Brussels and Paris where you have to change for other European destinations. There is some talk of having a service to Frankfurt, but whether this will ever happen, we shall have to wait and see.
