German insurer Allianz is understood to be planning a £2bn bid to buy the high-speed rail link between London’s St Pancras station and the Channel Tunnel from the UK government, which owns it through London & Continental Railways.
The UK Government is selling off the 68-mile link as part of several privatisations to help cut the budget deficit.
How would the loss of UK ownership over the Eurostar track, the only high speed rail link in th UK, affect Eurostar Deals?
