Before you land

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

  • Hours

    Basel-Paris is the fastest of the TGV Lyria corridors, using the LGV Rhin-Rhône and LGV Sud-Est high-speed lines for a direct journey of roughly three hours.

  • Easy to get wrong

    Basel has three main stations (SBB, Basel Badischer Bahnhof for German services, and Basel SNCF for some French ones); the direct TGV Lyria to Paris uses Basel SBB, not the separate SNCF-operated station building next to it.
