Well, you learned something then! It is useful, as some Americans will look at you oddly in the US when you ask where "left-luggage" is. I think they call it parcel check at NY Penn station... Anyway where did he mention trains? He didn't. It's a safe assumption. No assumption is safe on RTE when daft questions are being asked. I assumed troll. If I bother to answer a question on RTE, I'm not really doing it for the person asking the question. (Though Bruce K is not an unknown poster here, and not a troll IME.) I'm doing it for a wider readership, though ultimately myself- IOW, what would I do to find out if a French station had left luggage... -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "The fact is that when I compose I never think of and never have thought of meeting the listener." -George Perle |

Just to back you up ever so slightly on this, despite having lived in all manner of countries (except for the US), I was as clueless as you were about the original enquiry. pg http://frogblog-thaidings.blogspot.com/ |

Very common today....! Nevertheless, if there's a left service at all it's likely to be found at the railstation. |
