Evolun and Ferrovie dello Stato have launched a new alliance to launch a new train service connecting London with Paris via the Channel Tunnel.
The project will have an investment of around 1.1bn euros (£935m) and aims to provide a modern alternative for the nearly 20m passengers who travel every year.
Ferrovie dello Stato is Italy’s leading railway group and already operates high-speed trains through its subsidiaries.
A number of other operators, such as Virgin, are already looking to launch an alternative service to Eurostar.
