All this talk about a direct London-Barcelona train, but I am wondering why there’s no Amsterdam-Barcelona (easier to set up given no border/customs control with Schengen)! Should be feasible in 10hrs as a direct connection! I‘d definitely do it - would be one heck of a journey and train ride! Could even be 9.5-9hrs if less stops are planned.
Imagine it 🚄
Amsterdam - Brussels - Aeroport Paris CDG - Lyon Saint-Exupéry - Montpellier-Sud-de-France - Perpignan - Barcelona

@julienmarchal @jon not only your dream. European Sleeper, a startup that operates a night train from Brussels to Prague is planning the connection. Might even start in 2026!

@cejjacobs @julienmarchal Sorry for the rather blunt previous post, but I don't trust that European Sleeper to BCN will happen. The headaches to make it happen are too numerous.
