Angular 2.0.2: ActivatedRoute is empty in a Service

I want to use ActivatedRoute to get route params in a service like I would do in a Component. However, when I inject the ActivatedRoute object in a Service it contains an empty params variable

I've created a plunker that reproduces the behaviour: http://plnkr.co/edit/sckmDYnpIlZUbqqB3gli

Note that the intention is to use the parameter in the service and not in the component, the way the plunker is set up is purely to demonstrate the issue.

Component (test is retrieved):

export class Component implements OnInit {
  result: string;

  constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.route.params.subscribe(params => {
      this.result = params['test'];
    });
  }
}

Service (test is not retrieved):

export class Service {
  result: string;

  constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {
    this.getData();
  }

  getData() {
    this.route.params.subscribe(params => {
      this.result = params['test'];
    });
  }
}

Service here is a singleton that belongs to root injector and is injected with root ActivatedRoute instance.

Outlets get their own injector and own ActivatedRoute instance.

The solution here is to let route components have their own Service instances:

@Component({
  ...
  providers: [Service]
})
export class MainComponent { ... }
