Eurostar revenues down after Paris terror attacks
First-quarter takings slump by 6% after January attacks, tunnel fire and rise in sterling, but company says trading has rebounded
Eurostar’s revenues fell in the first quarter of 2015 as ticket sales faltered after the Paris terror attacks and disruption from a fire in the Channel tunnel.

With forward bookings up on this time last year, we are gearing up for a busy summer period
