Direct or connecting, how far the route really runs, and what happens when a connection is missed.

How far it really runs
The route covers 102 km against 89 km in a straight line, a detour of 15 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
First and last departure
The first service of the day leaves Liège at 06:01 and the last at 18:47, across 28 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.

Which month is cheapest for Liège to Brussels?

Journey times, fares and fare conditions differ between them, and the operator table on this page compares all of them on speed, flexibility and what is provided on board.

Where these numbers come from

Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.
