train stations in Brussels
I am takiong a train from Brussels Midi to London (St. Pancreas) but I have to get to Brussels from Bruges. It seems to me there are three places called Bruxxels Midi. I want to make sure I get to the correct spot. Does anyone know where I should be going

Only one Bruxelles/Brussel Midi/Zuid station nd you can get your train from there to Bruges/Brugge. Maybe the biilingual nature of Brussels is confusing you. You will have plenty of time to find your platform. b-europe.com/EN will have the platform details. |
Agree with hetismij2 that there is only one station, Bruxelles-Midi, but since the city uses both French and Dutch (Vlaams) you will also see signs to Brussel Zuid on the platforms or on some websites, Brussels South. All refer to the same station, just in different languages. There are two other main stations in Brussels, Bruxelles-Central / Brussel-Centraal and Bruxelles-Nord/ Brussel-Noord, but for Eurostar you want Midi, as that is the terminal for that train. The station is the biggest in Brussels and it is the end point for many trains. Your Bruges / Brugge train will go through Bruxelles-Midi or end there and from the arrival platform you can just roll your bags into the Eurostar terminal (usually navigating some stairs or an escalator down to the main concourse). Depending on where you alight your train, going down the stairs may take you into the southern corridor. Just walk to the end of the corridor to access the main concourse, and if you get lost, ask someone.
The Eurostar website uses the name Brussels Midi/Zuid, but it's still the same station: https://www.eurostar.com/us-en/trave.../brussels-midi Another useful website: https://www.seat61.com/stations/brussels-midi.htm Lavandula |
