Train Seating?

I%26#39;m trying to book transport between Paris and Caen by train. I haven%26#39;t been able to find a seating chart. Do the trains have 3 seats on each side of the aisle? I can%26#39;t seem to get 3 seat together. The numbers will be 11 middle, 13 middle and 17 middle. It is a short ride of only 1 hour 45 minutes but we would like to sit together. Is there a trick or do you just take what ever shows up?

Thanks

Train does not have 3 seats together but 2 and 2 facing each other in the middle or at the end of the car. It also depends on the train but I have never seen 3 together side by side unless 1 is on the other side of the aisle.

Thanks la photographe. I should have also mentioned that I couldn%26#39;t seem to reserve 2 seats together. I didn%26#39;t think I had ever seen a train with 3 seats abreast, but the numbering was confusing to me. As I said before it is a short distance so we will take our chances with the seating arrangement.

Good luck maryru! I%26#39;m here in Jacksonville, right around the corner from you. We%26#39;ll be back in Paris in May!

No one books seats on trains from Paris to Caen, except on Friday nights or big holiday departures. These trains are frequent, there is plenty of seating space, don%26#39;t bother to book. Just arrive at Saint Lazare 15 mn ahead of scheduled departure and board the train.

Thanks, vickisfloyd , nice to see a local %26quot;face%26quot; around! May is just around the corner, you%26#39;ll be in Paris before you know it. I wish I was going to see more than airports and train stations in Paris.

Hi maryru...You%26#39;ll have a great time in Caen. We%26#39;ve never been, but heard great things. You can come back to Paris...it%26#39;s not going anywhere!
