Hmmmm... I took the Eurostar from London to Disneyland Paris and didn't get this treatment at all! :D
But I do have to admit, it's a nice train and a very fast trip. It's sold me on using high speed trains to get around Europe on my next trip.

I agree with EpcotFan, Eurostar is pretty amazing. My favorite moment was when I was standing in the Bistro car, ordering something, and the entire world tipped over so all I could see out the window was ground, and out the other side was sky. That was when I knew we were hauling.
And for those wondering, the tunnel is only about 20 minutes of the trip. An absolutely beautiful trip.

I was in London when discussions were still being held to determine if the Chunnel would be built. The evening news was interviewing people on the street to get their opinions. One person interviewed was a priest judging by his clothes. When asked if the Chunnel should be built he emphatically stated no. When asked why, he replied, "The high speed trains will push the smell of garlic through the tunnel."
