Last updated

This is an index of all passenger rail services operated in Belgium.

Passenger rail services in Belgium are operated by NMBS/SNCB.

The Belgian rail network is organised into three main domestic passenger train categories on the main lines, these are:

To cater for the large number of commuter workers, especially into Brussels, complementary peak-hours trains run on mornings and late afternoons of working days, they are classified as P trains.

The Brussels S Train service was added in December 2015 and took over a good deal of the L trains. S Trains, and were later also introduced around other key cities like Antwerp, Liège, Gent.

International (high speed) services operate to countries such as the Netherlands, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Austria and UK. These are operated by Eurostar, NS International, Deutsche Bahn, ÖBB Nightjet and SNCF.

Below the train services are arranged by type, and for each type ordered by number. All services are correct to May 2020.

The station opened on 3 July 1854 on the Antwerp–Lage Zwaluwe railway and is the beginning of the Roosendaal–Vlissingen railway. Roosendaal was the first station in North Brabant to be built. Roosendaal is also a border station between the Netherlands and Belgium. Trains in Belgium run on the left side of double-track whereas in the Netherlands right-hand running is the norm.

Passenger trains may be broadly split into long-distance and local trains; the latter having average journey times of under an hour and a range of less than 50 kilometres. Goods trains have their own train types. The names of these train types have changed continually over the course of time.
