Paris closer than ever to Geneva
With the launch of the Haut-Bugey railway line, Paris <> Geneva journey time will be reduced by 20 minutes to reach more or less 3 hours. In addition, departure times will be scheduled for the same minute of each hour (at least one train every hour at the same minute). To fully take advantage of this new route, frequencies will be enhanced up to 9 daily round trips. Discover a new dimension of service Lyriapremière will be an entirely new service available for 1st class passengers travelling between Paris and Switzerland.

Fewer services on the Paris <> Neuchâtel / Bern route Since the high-speed line between Basel and Paris was opened, the TGV Lyria service departing from Bern via Neuchâtel has been subject to fierce competition. One of the daily return services has been particularly affected. With this in mind, Lyria has decided to amend its services; removing one of the two connections .However, there is still one daily round trip linking the federal capital with the city of lights. Following the reorganisation of TGV Lyria Bern-Paris routes, new RegioExpress train links are now available between Bern and Frasne with immediate connections in Frasne with TGV Lyria.
