  1. go to eurotrain.com

    all the schedules are there.

    It really depends on how many days you want your tain ticket for.

    If you get it for 4 day you can travel anywhere in that time.

    Just make sure they only stamp your ticket one time per day.

    have fun...


  2. How much you pay depends on the kind of ticket you buy.

    And if you buy a ticket for the high speed trains, the TGV, it depends on when you buy it and when you want to travel.

    You can find all prices, if in French, on this site:

    http://www.voyages-sncf.com/leisure/fr/l...

    Enter the names into the blue square, hit the red button and wait and see what comes up. It is not too hard to use.

    I entered Calais-Lille for tomorrow, most trains seem to cost 15.70, but some are more expensive, up to 23 Euro, they take between thirty minutes and one hour and twenty minutes.

    So check the times before deciding which train to take.

    For Lille to Paris I get 37.60 to 39.10 Euro, on the TGV.

    I know there is a slow service as well, but you will have to ask about

    that, as I can not get this site to admit it.

    You can find info like that, as well as times for the other trains, on the German planner in English, it does not do prices within France.

    http://www.bahn.de/international/view/en...

    On the second page you can choose 'without ICE' trains, which in France means without TGV trains. Likely a bit cheaper, but not always.

    If you want to travel Calais to Paris on one day, ask for a ticket that goes all the way, likely cheaper.

    Added:

    The trains that take 1.20 hours do stop at most/all stations between Calais and Lille, the 30 minute trains only stop once.

  3. The  euro star cost you around  20 Euro  

  4. I'm seeing 15-17 Euros Calais to Lille,

    32-52 Euros Lille to Paris, by train.

    It may vary a little depending when you want to travel. Go to www.tgv.com. Try to stick to the French site. The British and U.S. sites go to RailEurope, which seems to be adding a significant amount to the fares. Have fun!
