[edit] Eurostar

Calais-Fréthun is the first point of arrival on the continental side of the Eurostar route, passengers can alight here to connect onto the SNCF or TGV Nord services. Since summer 2006 it is possible to use Eurostar for domestic journeys between Paris Gare du Nord and Calais Frethun, but passengers are subject to the same immigration checks as if they were using Eurostar for an international journey.

[edit] TGV

The TGV also stops here for national and regional journeys.

It is on the following routes:

Lille-Paris via Calais, Boulogne and Amiens
Lille-Boulogne via Hazebrouck and Calais
