Artesia Day and Night Trains

Two of Europe’s most popular countries are brought together in style by the Artesia, a high speed train that tops out at a stunning 180 mph as it traverses the countryside between Milan and Paris.

Stops include Paris, Lyon, Milan, and Turin, all delivered fast as lighting thanks to modern rail technology. Travelers on the Lyon to Milan route can relax in the bar car and enjoy snack service, while those on the longer journey to Paris from Milan can experience a sit-down meal.

From Lyon, the Artesia is a 377-seat coach with two phone booths, a bar car, and optional first-class seating. From Paris, the train grows to 480 seats and adds a restaurant car. Both trains offer reclining seats, sections with four face-to-face seats, and a nursery. With optional face-to-face seating configurations and special sections for families with young children, Artesia is an ideal high speed solution for your customers traveling between France and Italy.

OR sleep soundly on the smooth tracks between France and Italy on the quick, comfortable Artesia Night trains.

Designed for quiet comfort, the Artesia Night featues both couchettes and full beds for good night's sleep. The night speeds by while passengers dine and relax aboard Artesia's top-of-the-line trains.

A soft pillow, a warm blanket, a good book, gentle lighting, and the night sky speeding past at top speed... After a long day working or playing on steady ground, you'll settle in to a train ride others only dream about. Start your nighttime journey in Paris, Milan, Nice, Marseille, or a host of other exciting spots, order dinner or a light snack, and as the sun sets, snuggle in and let tracks and technology escort you to your destination.
