The station closest to my hotel in Brussels is Brussels-North.
I was checking the Eurail Timetable and it says the train from Frankfurt to Brussels goes to Brussels Midi/Zuid (Brussels South).
Does anyone know if the train stops at Brussels North as well?
Thanks

looks to me as if they do on the timetable

I don%26#39;t know what you mean by the eurail timetable - if you think Eurail is a train operator, it isn%26#39;t: it%26#39;s an agency that sells passes and tickets on trains run by different, largely national, railway companies in Europe! However, all the national railway companies%26#39; websites should show all trains in Europe.
You don%26#39;t say exactly which train you are taking, but Thalys definitely terminates at Midi and as far as I know, so does ICE (without stopping at Nord as Midi is the first Brussels station trains from Germany arrive at). To find out for sure, put trip details into
reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en, indicating Frankfurt (Main) and Bruxelles-Nord and you will already see how many changes it gives you, which is usually 2, at Cologne and Bruxelles-Midi. If you click on the arrow to the left of the departure time in question, in the %26quot;products%26quot; column you will see a train number (or 3!): click on the one concerned and it will give you all the stops.
Note that even if your train terminates at Midi, your TICKET covers you to any Brussels mainline station, so you can use it on any local train from Midi to Nord; there must be one of these every 10 minutes or less, the easiest to find are probably the ones going to the airport.
