My trip to Paris/Normandy is coming up in October. I have gleaned quite a few ideas from this forum, such as Loco2.com for train tickets, as well as a few other sites that have train info. I think getting to Rouen from Paris Saint Lazare won't be a problem, but I'm trying to look at trains from Rouen to CDG (where I will overnight at a hotel for an early flight the next day). Even Loco2.com and trainline are only showing me 4 to 5 hour routes. It doesn't seem like it should take that long. I have been searching for dates in August/September, as the October schedules aren't available. Does anyone have any suggestions for a route from Rouen back to CDG?

Taking the train all the way is very round-a-bout with a couple of changes which is why it takes 5 hrs. There isn't any direct train from Rouen to CDG so the quickest way is to get a train to Paris and then take the RER (or a taxi) to the airport.

By all train it is train to St Lazare, walk underground to Hausmann-St Lazare, RER E to Magenta, then underground walk to Nord, then RER B to CDG. Its about 1 hour from getting off the train at St Lazare to CDG.

So I will get a ticket from Rouen to St Lazare, then go to Gare du Nord and take the RER B to CDG. Thanks so very much.
