Today I bought a pair of train tickets from Bruxelles to Bruges online (SNCB web site)and they send them by email but the document-ticket doesn't said the station (only Zone Bruxelles) neither the departure time... is this normal?... I know the station and departure time since I made notations but I was expecting to see that information printed in the ticket... confuse...

Reservations for specific departures aren't possible for inter-city trains in Belgium. You're free to take any train. "Zone Bruxelles" means you can start your jounery at any train station in Brussels. Actually you didn't need to purchase these tickets in advance, it would have been no problem getting them right before your departure at the ticket windows.

So, even when I choose the 17:05 departure I am free to take it later or sooner than that?... sound really good.
I guess that only the DATE and DESTINATION are force... right?

Also, IC trains leave every half hour from the Brussels stations to Bruges. You'll have your choice of both station and train.
