Best way to get from Gare Lyon to St.Lazare station

We will arrive in Paris via Geneva on a Sunday at Paris Gare de Lyon station and leave for Bayeux from Paris St.Lazare, what is the easiest way to get to the station. We should have at least two hours between arrival and departure. We will have luggage to transport. Thanks,
Sharon

Metro 14 connects the two stations, but has a bit of walking at the north end. If luggage is that much of an issue, take a taxi for about twenty-five bucks.

If the metro is intimidating because of luggage and you don't want to spring for a taxi, you can take bus #24 directly between Gare de Lyon and Gare Saint-Lazare.

You 'may' want to consider Line 14; because it's so deep, the stations have elevators and escalators 'forced' upon them - YEA! And it's completely automated - no drivers, the doors open and close themselves (DON'T GET CAUGHT IN THE DOORS!), and it's faster (end-to-end time of only about 13 mins) because the stops are very few and far between. A different sort of ride from the rest of the metro. If you can manage your luggage, this would certainly be the fastest and cheapest way to go. If you need to wimp out due to luggage, then take a taxi; check a map for the next-closest taxi stand because sometimes the line for taxis can be extremely looooong.
