Eurostar naming remembers Fromelles
A Eurostar train has been named Remembering Fromelles at St Pancras International station.
After the naming, carried out by HRH The Duke of Kent, the Eurostar carried over 400 invited guests, many related to those who died in the Battle of Fromelles, to Lille. From there guests made the short journey to the village of Fromelles where, later the same day, the first war cemetery in 50 years was officially dedicated by the Commenwealth War Graves Commission.
