It is now more than 15 years in Belgium that the last night train left the station of Brussels never to return. This mode of transport, used by many generations in the twentieth century and synonymous with great trips and holidays, has found a renewed interest among the population in Europe. Countries like Austria have already revived this activity and others like Scandinavia and France are discussing the subject. As for the Belgium state owned railway company SNCB, it has no intention, either soon or in the distant future, of resubmitting this service. This lack of ambition and vision is desolate, especially in a society in transition seeking new alternatives to transportation. Consequently, we ask the government to play its role as the main shareholder of SNCB and to ask it to seriously study the possibility of reopening night intercity lines, as was the case in the past.

Grenar ideas!
We need to be able to travel in Europe without taking flights.
Therefore we also must have night trains to reach our destinations.
Reinstating the inter-city night trains is an essential part of reconnecting the European cities through the railway system. A sustainable European transport and travel industry is dependent on a functioning and accessible railway system.
We need more nighttrains to connect Europe.
All railways should have night trains for longer distances to make it convenient to travel in a climate smart way.
More night trains in Europe!!
More night trains, please!
For the Environment !
Go, go , go!
It would be fantastic to be avle to take a nighttrain from Copenhagen to Brussels.
