France: Trains Do Run on Christmas Day, Right?
I have been in France at Christmas several times but not for a few years. Trains were running fairly decent schedules (my home away from home in France is smack on a mainline to Paris.
But as i am currently booking a plane ticket to arrive at CDG Airport on Christmas Day i thought i would double-check with the experts who can verify that i can indeed get a train from CDG into Paris (RER) and then a train from Austerlitz to Les Aubrais-Orleans
I tried checking the bahn.de schedule and it seems nothing has been loaded for winter schedules, as is oft IME the way it is
I can be assured of public transports running somewhat regularly, right
thanks

thanks both for taking time to respond
Ah yeh the U.K. even on Dec 26 many trains don't run! Actually the no-running on Christmas Day is a fairly recent thing in Britain i read - only from around 1970 did they decide not to run - and Dec 26th is a busy shopping day and few trains - tubes yes but not many mainline trains.
