The parts people get wrong. Each one links to where we checked it.

  • Hours

    Antwerp-Central's own line list gives three separate IC numbers on this corridor (02, 04, 28), with IC 28 a weekdays-only Antwerp-Sint-Niklaas-Ghent shuttle pattern layered on top of the two longer-distance lines that also cover the same stretch.

  • Easy to get wrong

    IC 02 and IC 04 both continue past Ghent toward the coast or the French border (Ostend/Bruges versus Kortrijk/Lille), so a traveller only going as far as Ghent boards whichever comes first rather than hunting for a Ghent-terminating service.
