London to Basel / Bâle by train

There are three options for making a journey by train from London to Basel:

  1. The quickest option is to make only one 'connection' in Paris, but this routing involves having to make a transfer between stations across the city centre.

  2. Taking that journey across Paris from the Gare Du Nord to the Gare De Lyon can be avoided, by taking on train on to Strasbourg from the Gare de l'Est in Paris.
    Though another connection between trains will be required in Strasbourg.

  3. Avoid having to make a transfer between stations in Paris by travelling via Lille and Strasbourg.
