Silver Arrow (rail-air service)

The Silver Arrow (Flèche d’Argent) was an intermodal passenger transport service linking Victoria station in London with Gare du Nord in Paris, via Gatwick Airport  and  Le Touquet Airport, northern France. In operation between 1956 and the opening of the Channel Tunnel, it used a combination of rail and air transport, and, for some of its existence, also buses.
