Ugh. Why is there no sensible route between Brussels and Paris that doesn't involve a Thalys...
@wmd one of the journey planners gave me that with 4 stops. Including Gent and Kortrijk to do Brussels to Paris...
@quixoticgeek yeah, I did that one once. Then tgv to paris. If you have the time it works.
@quixoticgeek via lille? Not sure if it still falls under sensible. :)
