Can BritRail Passes be used on the fast trains between Ashford Intl. and London St. Pancras? In the past I have used them when trains were slower into Charing Cross but have heard that using them on the fast trains may be stopped.
>The BritRail ticket or pass is not valid on Eurostar services, special excursions, Tyne and Wear Metro Trains (Newcastle-upon-Tyne area), Glasgow Underground trains, Manchester Metro link, road links between airports and railway stations, Docklands Light Railway, privately owned railways, steam services, London Underground trains and buses, ships, hovercraft, nor any other services not mentioned.<

So it is not a matter of faster trains (with the Eurail passes one sometimes has to pay a supplement for faster trains) so much as passes not being valid on certain routes.
You can't use a pass on Eurostar, the fastest train from Ashford to St P.
As Leics says you cannot use the pass on the Eurostar trains but you can use them on the Southeastern Railway fast trains between Ashford and St Pancras (they are called Javelin Services) but there is a small supplement. Have a look at - http://www.southeasternrailway.co.uk/index.php/highspeed
Just to add that nobody can buy a ticket for Eurostar trains between Ashford and St Pancras, as Eurostar does not carry domestic passengers within the UK.
They never have. It would have been uneconomic even without the competition (a friend who works for Eurostar told me this) and now there is no point, with a fast train every 30 minutes on the Southewastern 'Javelin' service and virtually all Eurostar trains at Ashford withdrawn in favour of stops at Ebbsfleet station near Gravesend.

You certainly must visit the monuments in the center - Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Tower and many others. My best memories are from strolling around the Thames especially during sunset.
Well, my fondest memory won't help you with your travels but might explain why I love this city so much.
One of my earliest memories is from when I was 3 years old. I was staying with my Nanny and Grandad, my Mum's mum and stepfather, in London for several weeks before my family moved to Canada. Everyone else was with my Dad's father in Norfolk. I decided one day to have a tea party, and I can still recall the big box of toys that held the tea set. My Grandad sat and had this little tea party with me, I can remember giving him the tea cup and his pretending to drink it. What a lovely man he was.
So when I think of London, I have these wonderful memories to go with it. Memories of much loved relatives who, unfortunately, are no longer with us.
The Victoria Memorial is a sculpture in London, in front of Buckingham Palace.
It was built by the sculptor Sir Thomas Brock, in 1911. The surround was constructed by the architect Sir Aston Webb, from 2,300 tons of white marble. It is a Grade I listed building.
It has a large statue of Queen Victoria facing north-eastwards towards The Mall. The other sides of the monument feature dark patinated bronze statues of the Angel of Justice (facing north-westwards toward Green Park), the Angel of Truth (facing south-eastwards) and Charity facing Buckingham Palace. On the pinnacle, is Victory with two seated figures. The subsidiary figures generously gifted by the people of New Zealand. The whole sculpture has a nautical theme, much like the rest of the mall (Admiralty Arch etc). This can be seen in the mermaids, mermen and a hippogriff, all of which are suggestive of Britain ruling the waves
In our walk round Marylebone were a few reminders of days gone by.
1, In Stafford Place are some old gas lamps and beside them cones with which the lamp-lighter would extinguish his wick when he finished lighting them.
2. A stone at the site of the former water conduit.
