I think that's the case for anyone who takes a subway or commuter train regularly. That's how you know who the locals are -- they know where to stand on the platform.

Someone's published a guide to London tube stations to show you exactly which carriage you need to be in, in order to be nearest the best platform exit for your onward journey. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if some enterprising Parisian anorak has done the same for the Métro.

I think there's an app for that for telephones.

Hi
We will be travelling via Eurostar to gard du nord and need to continue on to gare du Lyon for TGV connection. There will be 4 of us travelling with probably 2 cases. Do you think we would be better to use RER or taxi?

If you are not loaded down with baggage (2 cases for 4 people or 2 cases each?), the RER D will only take about 7 minutes. If you are not pressed for time bus 65 will also take you to Gare de Lyon with lots to see along the way.

Man in Seat 61 video of travelling from Gare du Nord to Gare de Lyon on RER "D"-- Looks pretty ridiculously easy.

The Seat 61 site should always be examined before taking a train anywhere in Europe. The man in seat 61 is one of the greatest travel resources in Europe, particularly after the passing of the international treasure Ben Haines.

There is a post on Trip advisor advising that there is a second taxi rank at Gare Du Nord To the east of the station is this correct

The secondary taxi station is in front of the suburban section of the station (glass front) but there is room for only about 5 taxis.
