Hello,
I have a question, regarding the train connection between Brussels and Paris.
DeutscheBahn's rail timetable shows this connection:

Bruxelles-Midi Do, 09.06.11 ab 11:18 TGV 9832 TGV
Lille Europe Do, 09.06.11 an 11:53
Umsteigezeit 9 Min.
Blandain(fr) Do, 09.06.11 ab 12:02 TGV 7246 TGV
Paris Nord Do, 09.06.11 an 13:02

The distance (GoogleMaps) from Lille to Blandain is over 20 km. Is it just a mistake of DB ? Or isn't it possible to take this combination of trains?

This is certainly a mistake in the schedule planner. TGV 7246 stops at Lille Europe at 1202.

yes-flow is right-Blandain is the frontier tariff point-but unused for TGV. Also note that for BOTH TGV-trips you need to have a seat-reservation.

thanks!
I already was about to make the reservation, but if it had been true, it would have been a problem to do the trip^^
