My fiance and I would like to take the overnight train (private car for just the two of us) from Paris to Venice. Which train should we take?

"Private car"? Or private compartment?
As far as I can see, there is only one night train clear through from Paris to Venice, EN 221. It has private sleeping compartments.

The Artesia "Stendhal" train from Paris to Venice has private 2-person compartments.

The fares are on the website. There are advance purchase discounts, but it looks like for tickets you have to go through an agency (lie RailEeurope) or through SNCF.

Artesia Stendhal or EN 221. Same train.

Yes, it is the same train.
I just thought they might like a link to the Artesia website to find a little more information about it.
EN 221 doesn't give them much to go on.

He asked, "Which train..". I just wanted him to know he didn't have a choice. There's only one.
But, that is a helpful website.
