About the brand ❤️
Thalys was a Belgian-based international high-speed rail brand connecting Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Germany. Established in 1995, it developed into one of Europe's leading high-speed services, operating trains at speeds of up to 300 km/h. Its main routes linked Brussels with Paris, Amsterdam and Cologne, while additional services connected other cities in France, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands. Thalys introduced onboard Wi-Fi and multilingual service and carried millions of passengers annually. In October 2023, it merged its operations and identity with Eurostar, ending Thalys as a separate passenger brand.
