We would like to use a car service from the Milan train station to and from Como on Oct 18 and 23. What would the cost be?

Why not just catch a local train? Acquista il biglietto con le nostre offerte - Trenitalia, buy at the station on the day.

€4.80, takes 37 minutes, train every hour to Como S Giovanni, or there are more trains to other stations in Como.

Hiring a car and driver or a taxi that distance would be an unnecessary extravagance.

Yes why - you are taking a train from Lyon to Milano Centrale and from the station trains go all the time to Como?

Approx. $140. A waste of money given the great rail service and the fact you already are in the station.

Figured it out. From Lyon arrives Milan at 13:50. Then we get a train to Como at 15:10.
Thanks to all for their input

And hit the cafeteria StCirq recommended highly in Milano Ctrle - 2nd floor well above the hectic frey below! If you buy a regional train ticket to Como which the 15:10 is and 14:10 too then with that you could take any regional train - just put in 14:10 as start of 4-hour validity and you could if on time hop 14:10 and if miss it the 15:10 without formality. Very flexible - you are not as far as I know stuck to 15:10 unless you start 4-hour validity at 15:10- start at 14:10 - well check that out.
