European Sleeper will introduce a new overnight passenger service linking Paris, Brussels and Berlin from March 26, marking a significant expansion of its international night train network. The new train will operate on three nights per week, complementing the company’s existing Brussels–Berlin service, which runs on alternate days. Together, the two services will create a six-nights-per-week overnight connection between Brussels and Berlin, substantially improving frequency and flexibility for travellers.
On departure days, the new service will leave Paris on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 17:45, offering an early-evening departure suitable for both leisure and business passengers. The train will call at Brussels at 21:45, providing convenient interchange opportunities with other Belgian and international services, before continuing overnight through Germany. Arrival in Berlin is scheduled for 09:59 the following morning, allowing passengers to reach the German capital at the start of the day.
In the southbound direction, the return working will depart Berlin on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 18:31. After an overnight journey, the train is due to arrive in Brussels at 07:06, with onward arrival in Paris at 10:00. These timings are designed to allow overnight travel between all three cities while making efficient use of rolling stock.
The introduction of the Paris–Brussels–Berlin service strengthens European Sleeper’s position in the growing market for international overnight rail travel and provides a direct night-time link between France and Germany.
