Dans quelques stations du RER comme Châtelet Les Halles et Gare de Lyon, ces panneaux vont vous diriger à un quai avec deux voie sur chaque coté. Ce n’est pas toujours evident quel coté est le bon coté pour le train que nous voulons prendre donc c’est une bonne idée de regarder les panneaux qui notent quel stations sont desservis comme ci-dessous:

Chaque station desservi au long de la ligne sera marqué sur le panneau. Si vous ne trouvez pas le station “Marne La Vallée” marqué sur le panneau, vous êtes au mauvais coté (ou voie).

Les stations sur le panneau qui sont allumés avec un carré jaune seront desservis par le prochain train. Si Marne La Vallée n’est pas allumé, attendez pour le train en suite.

Après vous êtes monté sur le train à DisneyLand Paris, il faut que vous gardez votre titre de transport jusqu’à la sortie du gare à Marne La Vallée.

• Elsewhere: www.tgv-europe.com

The great thing about finding train schedules using Gares-en-Mouvement is that it covers all of France from big cities like Paris, Lyon, Marseille, to the small villages like Beaune, and Chartres all on one website. Furthermore, it covers all the different types of trains you can take in France. There’s no need to switch  websites to find schedules for each different train subsidiary of SNCF: Transilien, Ter, TGV, idTGV, Corail Téoz, Corail Lunéa, etc.

However, I would not recommend using Gares-en-Mouvement for train itineraries within a single city such as on the Paris Metro & RER, as the results can be incredibly wrong with itineraries taking days. For train timetable searches within a city, use that city’s public transportation website instead, for example: RATP.fr for Paris, www.tcl.fr for Lyon, www.rtm.fr for Marseille, etc.

How to Search for Train Schedules/Timetables

Start by choosing a station or Gare as your departure city or point.

Then click on the link “Recherche d’horaires” (”Search Schedules”) on the left column of links.

You’ll be presented with a search page with departure point pre-filled and the date of travel set to today.

Enter a city after the “à“.  You should see a list of stations appear below the text box after typing in the city name.  Select your destination station from this list.  Then set your travel date and time of departure.  Finally, click Recherche (”Search”). (If you’re unsure of which destination station you should choose, enter just the city destination and the search tool will automatically select the largest station for the city).

A maximum of 3 train itineraries will be returned with the option of seeing details about each itinerary.

The results are ordered chronologically with the number of connections required (”changements”), and total travel time (”durée”).

Clicking the blue magnifying glass button beside an itinerary will show details of that trip basically each train or connection required.

Each connection will be shown with the type of train or other form of transport (as not all connections are by train, some are by foot or bus):

• BAN - Banlieue (”Suburban”) train either RER or Transilien train,
• Ter - Ter/Transilien commuter train,
• TGV - “Train à Grande Vitesse” / High-speed trains,
• “Autre mode de transport” - Walking (to make transfers between trains)
• CAR - Autocar (”bus”)

You can search different starting stations by simply changing the text within the text box beside “Voyage de” (”Trip from”). As you type the name of a city, the site will offer you suggestions of stations which show up automatically below the text box.  This helps prevent spelling mistakes and gives you choices of which stations you can select. For example, typing in “Paris” in the first text box will return a multitude of results whereupon you can use your keyboard’s down arrow to move down the list and press Enter to select the station you wish to depart from.

Buying Train Tickets

Remember that Gares-en-Mouvement is for finding train schedules, not buying train tickets.  For buying train tickets in France, here are the official resellers for your country:

• United Kingdom: www.raileurope.co.uk
• France: www.voyages-sncf.com
• United States: www.raileurope.com
• Canada: www.raileurope.ca
• Elsewhere: www.tgv-europe.com

When purchasing tickets, these sites will ask you where you want your tickets delivered.  If your country is different than the region the website is covering, you’ll be redirected to the official reseller for your country of residence and you’ll have to start the ticket search process again.

We’ll learn how to read an RER timetable through an example trip: Paris to Euro Disney by RER A Train.

Things you’ll need to know before you start:

1. Your Destination RER train station (Marne La Vallée-Chessy)
2. Your Departure RER train station (example: Gare de Lyon)
3. The terminus (last) station along the RER train line, in the direction you’re traveling.

To see all RER train lines use an RER train map. To get detailed information on a single RER line, view its corresponding RER line map, which can help you find a departure station in Paris (Zone 1), the destination station, and the line branch/direction you need.  RER Schedules can be found on the RER Schedules category page.

Step 1 - Find Destination Station: On the left hand side of schedule / timetable will be stations along the RER train line. Start by finding the station that you wish to arrive at, your destination station. In this example, we want to go to Marne la Vallee, the station for Euro Disney along the RER A train line.

Step 2 - Find Desired Time of Arrival: On the row for your destination station, trace your finger along the row until you find the time you want to arrive at. Subsequent pages will have later times, so flip through the schedule book to find later arrival times.  If the time you’re looking for isn’t shown on the current page, view subsequent pages, keeping your focus on the row of your destination station, in this example, it’s Marne la Vallee, which is easy since it’s the last row/station along the RER A line.  Once you’ve found the time you wish to arrive at we can now find when the train leaves and from which stations.  Note that all times are listed in 24 hour clock. Thus 1731 would be 5:31pm in the afternoon.  Morning times are shown without a leading zero, so 6:55am would be shown as 655.

Step 3 - Find Departure Station & Time: Having found your desired arrival time, we can now check when the train departs and from which Paris stations.  Each column on a RER timetable represents a train running along the line, albeit at different times.  Moving to the right across columns shows trains that depart later in the day.  Not all trains stop at all stations along the line, thus you’ll see large gaps in the schedule, which indicates a branch or stations of the RER line that is skipped by the train.

From your chosen arrival time, trace your finger up the column till it crosses the station row that you want to depart from.  Paris stations are near the middle of the sheet. The major RER A stations in central Paris are: Charles de Gaulle-Etoile, Auber, Chatelet Les Halles, Gare de Lyon, and Nation. Here we move up the column till we reach a 6:54am departure which coincides with station Gare de Lyon.  Thus we can take an RER A train, in direction Marne La Vallée, leaving from Gare de Lyon at 6:54am, arriving at 7:30am at station Marne La Vallée-Chessy, the closest station to Euro Disney.

The RER C train is complicated with its 8 different terminus stations (used to denote direction of travel).

RER C Schedule - Paris to Versailles (PDF) - If you’re going from central Paris to Chateau Versailles, this is your schedule.  This RER C route travels past several central Paris stations (Gare d’Austerlitz, St Michel Notre Dame, Musée d’Orsay, Invalides, Pont de l’Alma,  Champ de Mars/Tour Eiffel) on its way to Versailles Rive Gauche station in Versailles, the closest train station to Chateau Versailles. RER C trains making this route will be labeled with direction: “Versailles - Rive Gauche“. Be careful not to confuse this RER C train direction with “Versailles Chantiers - St Quentin en Yvelines”, which does not stop at Versailles - Rive Gauche station.  The difference is that Versailles Chantiers station is about 15 minutes walk to the Chateau as opposed to 5 minutes for Versailles Rive Gauche.

RER C Schedule - Paris to Orly Airport (ORY) and Massy TGV Station (PDF) - This schedule stars from Eiffel Tower / Champs de Mars RER C station and travels clockwise through southern Paris, stopping at St Michel, Gare d’Austerlitz before making its way to Aeroport d’Orly shuttle bus station (Pont de Rungis) and ends at Massy TGV train station. Note that the RER C does not stop directly at Orly Airport but stops at Pont de Rungis where you must transfer to a RATP bus to complete the journey to Orly Airport terminals West and South. RER C trains making this route will be labeled with direction: “Pont de Rungis - Aeroport d’Orly” or “Massy Palaiseau“.

(Schedules courtesy of Transilien)

For travelers to and from Orly Airport, here are the first and last trains from Gare d’Austerlitz and Pont de Rungis station (where a bus completes the journey to the airport):
