The eurostar is a fast 2.5 hour train from London to Paris, but it costs at least $94. one way. You can look for a cheap flight with ryanair or easyjet to France or Italy, and buy a
3 country selectpass on eurail.com or
raileurope.com for the trains in Fr,Sp,It.
If under 26 you can get youth pass and if traveling with a friend it's even cheaper with saver passes.

Depending on where you're actually from, i'm guessing UK - there are certain deals for students, railcards etc.. Look into them.
Book your seats at least a couple of days ahead, unless you feel like standing for five hours.
umm.. have fun.
Lucky bastards. =P
