Auto train (traveling by train with car)

Does anyone have information on traveling by rail with a car (automobile). I would like to travel from Sothern France to Paris. Where can I find the fares and schedule? I am traveling mid-October.

I couldn%26#39;t find it in English, but it looks fairly straightforward for fares and schedules.


If you want pages in English, you might find some travel agents pages - you%26#39;re more likely to find the ones aimed at English-speaking travellers if you %26#39;Google%26#39; for %26#39;motorail%26#39;.

You can%26#39;t book tickets for the auto-train online, you need to phone for these.. Contact SNCF directly, or try www.raileurope.co.uk or .com. You need to book the car travel %26amp; your tickets separately, they can%26#39;t be bought as a package. You can purchase both sets of tickets up to 60 days in advance. In the UK we can purchase tickets for our travel ( but not the car) on the SNCF website, but not sure about the conditions for sending tickets to the US.



Don%26#39;t bother trying motorail, they go from Calais, only the SNCF autotrain uses Paris.
