European Sleeper to extend to Germany and Czech Republic

The European Sleeper train, which launched its Brussels-Amsterdam-Berlin night train in May this year, is extending the service to Germany and the Czech Republic.

Following the launch of the Brussels–Amsterdam–Berlin night train the route is being extended to Dresden and Prague from March 25, 2024.

The new services next year will connect four European capitals.

The train will leave Brussels on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 19.22 making 18 stops, including Amsterdam Schiphol, Amsterdam Centraal, two stations in Berlin, Dresden and Prague.

It arrives in the Czech Republic at 10.56 the following day.

The new service will depart from Prague on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 18.04 and arriving in Brussels the following day at 09.27. There are two fewer stops on this leg of the journey as the train does not stop at Den Haag HS, or Amsterdam Schiphol (there would be no flights during the night).

The train company has also hinted it is expanding its routes further to southern Europe and and possibly to Scandinavia with a message on its website reading: "Barcelona or Stockholm? We are preparing several other new night train routes. Both for the short and the long term. We see many opportunities towards Southern Europe, but like to take you to Scandinavia by train as well.
