The railway from Paris to Lille is an important French 251-kilometre long railway line, that connects Paris to the northern French city Lille. Branch lines offer connections to Belgium and Great Britain. As one of the first railway lines in France, it was opened on 20 June 1846.[2] The opening of the LGV Nord high speed line from Paris to Lille in 1993 has decreased its importance for passenger traffic.
