Lille, Hauts-de-France to Cassel, Hauts-de-France from $8: 4 ways by bus, train, flight or car

• The main operator for the train route from Lille to Cassel is SNCF (Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français). They provide a catering service onboard offering a selection of snacks and beverages in their 'TGV INOUI' trains. However, for routes with lower frequency or regional trains, onboard catering may be limited, so consider bringing your own snacks if you prefer a larger choice.

• On this route, you can choose between First Class and Second Class seating on SNCF trains. First Class offers more spacious seating, power outlets, and quieter carriages. Second Class is still comfortable but with slightly less legroom and fewer amenities. Be sure to book early if you prefer First Class, as it may sell out quickly on busy travel days.

Also, restrooms are available at the station, but showers are not typically offered. For getting to the city center, the best option is to take Bus Line 2 or Bus Line 10, which departs from right outside the station.
