At London Waterloo, the old Eurostar terminal is being rebuilt for use as platforms for South West Trains services instead. We went for a look around as what remained, and a sneak peek at the works taking place to get it ready for the future.

Once the work is complete the platforms shall be used as such:
Platforms 1-6 - Main suburban services (Dorking, Epsom, Chessington, Guildford, Hampton Court)
Platforms 7-19 - Mainline services (Portsmouth, Alton, Weymouth, Exeter)
PLatform 20-24 (The current old international terminal) Services to Reading and Windsor
