Default going to London by train

I need to go to London on business, but my son would love to travel by train overnight as he never travelled by train. I am looking into it but it all seems so confusing and I don't want to be stranded somewhere with a small child, so wondered if someone could give us some simple guideline. We would be going from Valencia. Thanks so much.

I think its like this.... Valencia to Barcelona.

Barcelona to Paris then Eurostar...

My Friend went last month from Alicante I will have to check the details.

They really enjoyed the experience - It wasn't cheap though..!

Thank you. It is just the questio of price, otherwise I love trains. And if you travel overnight, no problem. When you think of 2 hrs at the airport, 2 hrs on the exit, hustle, lost luggage...train is great.

Thanks Mitzy, sorry to hear about your lock senario, bit weird, they are all out there !, the vaseline was a good tip though, I guess you could also try silicone spray...but lets hope it don't happen again

Hi
Take a train to Madrid then over night train to Paris the on to London buy Euro star. You can also get an over night train from Barcelona to Paris, which could be better for you to get to
