Any models of high speed trains out there?

On the lookout for modern high speed trains, bullet trains, TGV, ICE and in particular Eurostar which I've never seen a model of.

Anyone know of these floating around on the net?

The only paper train I've seen is this electric loco at the Canon site. Not EXACTLY what you want maybe? but worth a peek I thought GG1-type Electric Locomotive - Vehicles - Paper CraftCanon CREATIVE PARK

Robin,

I think the following site will appeal to you and those are seeking TGV style trains

This place has a bunch of links to train models.

Hamanaga Train Links

Some look like those high speed trains.

There are a lot of links at that site on some of the other pages. The lined out links are dead links. Check out the Links tab at the top of the Paper Modelers Forum. The section called Links Directory has a link to the Hamanaga page that directs you to various categories. Each page loads up a bunch of thumbnails, so it might take a while for everything to show. The Trains page is just one of many.

Thread necromancy here. Since November 14th is the anniversary of the first public run of the Eurostar, and since there is a post asking the same question, I'm giving this a bump.

In all this time, is there still no Eurostar model?
