New sleeper service will run from Paris to Berlin next year

European Sleeper will operate the new service from March 2026, replacing the Nightjet train that is being axed next month

The resurgence of sleeper trains on the continent hit a kink in the tracks in September, when the Austrian state operator ÖBB announced that it would be axing its two Nightjet services – Paris to Vienna and Paris to Berlin – from 14 December. ÖBB cited the French government's ending of subsidies, dealing a blow to the night-train renaissance.

However, there is light at the end of the tunnel. European Sleeper has told the Guardian that it will be taking over the route from Paris to Berlin, with the first train to run on 26 March 2026. The train will operate three times a week with departures likely to be from Paris Gare du Nord on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings and the return service from Berlin Hauptbahnhof and Ostbahnhof on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The current Nightjet service departs Paris Gare de l'Est just after 7pm and winds east via Strasbourg, Frankfurt, Erfurt and Halle before arriving in Berlin around 8.30am. European Sleeper intends to make the journey via Brussels, with precise route details and timings currently being confirmed with infrastructure managers in France, Belgium and Germany.

From her small-town beginnings to touring with Katy Perry and working as a sought-after session singer in L.A., then moving to Nashville to record her debut Christian album, Love Running Wild, in 2019, Tasha’s story is as vibrant and strong as she is.

'Train Dreams' review: A powerful, spare look at a vanishing way of life

"Train Dreams" is a beautiful look at a bygone era that, at the same time, has a startling immediacy. That immediacy, our critic writes, is more than a matter of careful observation. In its widest sense, the movie is asking what makes life worth living.

Mamdani is favored to win New York's mayoral race. The hard part comes next.

Zohran Mamdani, who heads into Election Day with a commanding lead, could be the first New York mayor in more than half a century who didn't win an outright majority. And New York is a place where it's difficult to implement big changes.
