The parts people get wrong. Each one links to where we checked it.
Hours
Gent-Sint-Pieters' own line list gives five separate IC numbers reaching Brussels directly (IC 01, 03, 12, 20, 23A), among the densest domestic corridors in the file - a missed departure on one line is rarely more than a few minutes from the next on a different one.

Easy to get wrong
Ghent has two main stations, Gent-Sint-Pieters (the large through station these IC lines use) and the smaller Gent-Dampoort - booking to 'Ghent' without checking which one a specific line calls at can leave a traveller at the wrong side of the city centre.
