Sorry; the BBC news reported this evening the HS2 line would run from Euston.

Sorry - my answer was ambiguous.

HS2 won't only stop at Euston; it will also link directly to HS2

THE proposed high-speed rail link that would take passengers from Birmingham to London in under an hour lacks a clear reason for its final destination being Euston, according to senior MPs.

I'm confused.

Connection to other lines
High Speed 1
The government command paper stated:
... the new British high speed rail network should be connected to the wider European high speed rail network via High Speed One and the Channel Tunnel, subject to cost and value for money. This could be achieved through either or both of a dedicated rapid transport system linking Euston and St Pancras and a direct rail link to High Speed One.[45]
The engineering study conducted by Arup for HS2 Ltd costed a "classic speed" GC loading gauge direct rail link at £458m (single track) or £812m (double track). The connection would be from Old Oak Common to the High Speed 1 St Pancras portal, via tunnel and the North London Line. A double-track high-speed connection would cost £3.6bn.[46]
The High Speed 2 report recommended that, if a direct rail link is built, it should be the classic-speed, double-track option.[47]
In December 2010 it was announced that a connection will be made with High Speed 1 as part of the first phase of construction using a tunnel between Old Oak Common and Chalk Farm on the North London Line, and then using existing lines to connect north of St Pancras.[28][29] The proposed connection would be built to GC loading gauge and would not be suitable for high-speed running.[48]

BUGGER! ... and sorry. I seem to have fundamentally messed up my Qi

HS2 won't only stop at Euston; it will also link directly to HS1

I just hope they build really long platforms at all the stations.
That's the problem with the current network: We can't just make the trains longer.

Plenty of countries have double deck trains with rolling stock occupying much the same space as single deck trains. Why we don’t use those is beyond me.

The problems are we have a smaller loading gauge than most of Europe - a legacy of inventing railways, sadly - and it took longer to disgorge passengers from the double-decker stock. I was suprised to learn they lasted into the 1970s, though.

Now, for a completely new build, there's no reason why a larger loading gauge can't be adopted and double-decker trains introduced. We all know, though, that won't happen.
