<When you get it wrong, it devalues all the other advice you give.>

can't understand that either but would throw the baby out with the bathwater. I have been professionally writing about European trains - or did, now redundant and retired - for 40 years - my 'grave error' here was assuming there would be trains from London to Lille between 6:19am and a few hours later and there were not - that's it - the rest, boing via Lille as an option, I firmly stand by.
