Dijon trains
 
Just checking....
Do local trains (from Beaune) arrive and TGV trains depart at same station in Dijon? (Dijon Gare Centre)
Looks like I need to book these separately in order to be put on the TGV for the 2nd leg.

Hi TN,

BahnDe shows the local arriving at and the TGV departing from Dijon Ville for Beaune (chagny)/Paris.

Where are you going on the 2nd leg?

Back to Paris.
Arrive Paris, next day -> Dijon for day/night
Dijon -> Beaune (car drives next 2.5 days)
Return to Paris for 4 days

I thought it would be the same station, so in process of booking our trains early. So far, Paris-Dijon for 17€ each :)

>I thought it would be the same station< it is indeed the same station. You will only have to change platform (A to J). Bon voyage and welcome to Burgundy! (good deal BTW)

Thanks, all! I have the first couple of tickets. I think I've gotta wait a couple days for the last set (for 9/23). It 'declined' my payment and it isn't the bank or card issuer. I think I'm outside the 'window' by a couple days.

Hi TN,

>It 'declined' my payment ......I think I'm outside the 'window' by a couple days.<

Yes, you are. Wait until 00:01 French time on June 23.

Enjoy your visit..
