I'm retracing on a map my 2016 EU trip. One journey was Eurostar London to Lyon. I asked Eurostar about the route but they declined to answer stating they no longer service that route. The train bypassed Paris but I don't know where North of Paris it branched off - do you? If I remember correctly once leaving Lille there were no stops until Lyon Part-Dieu.
I assume Eurostar used mostly the TGV line once Paris was to the left?

It would have run at a weekend, and it would have used the TGV route. But since you don't say whether it was the winter Alps- ski train or summer Med train I'm not going any further.

Sorry. It was 7 May 2016. I think it then continued south to Marseille. I have Ball's European railway atlas but I can't tell where it branched off the Lille -Paris line. I think it may have been near CDG airport or Euro Disney but I don't remember any interim stop.
