Some €9 billion were pumped into the Belgian National Railways - SNCB/NMBS (tel: (02) 528 2828; website: www.b-rail.be), in a 10-year modernisation completed in 2005. The service is fast and very efficient. There are three major railway stations in Brussels - Bruxelles-Central, located in the heart of the city, Bruxelles-Nord, to the north of the main ring road, and Bruxelles-Midi, to the south. They share a rail enquiries line (tel: (02) 555 2555). All three stations have bars, refreshments and disabled access, while Bruxelles-Midi and Bruxelles-Nord both have car parks.
Rail services: Most domestic trains stop at all three stations.
