train 9862 (Lyon to Paris) - does it have duplex cars?

Posted by on

I am booking 4 2nd class seats on the Lyon to Paris train (#9862) for July 12.

Does train #9862 have duplex cars?

From what I've read, there are 1st and 2nd class seats on both upper & lower levels of a duplex car. How do I choose a 2nd class seat on the upper level?

When I go through the booking sequence (dry run, not actually booked), it asks me for my preference ("club seats for four"), but it doesn't offer me a choice of upper or lower level. It said I would get seats 646, 647, 651, 650, which appears to be a "club 4" arrangement, according to some seat charts I found, but there's no indication whether the chart is for upper or lower.

Thanks

You can't choose seats in second class, only in first class. Second class seats are assigned by the computer. I usually travel in 1st but I believe in second you can check mark a preference for a 4-seat arrangement, especially if all tickets are on the same purchase.
