I wouldn't count on it. A useful website for finding out station
facilities in France is http://www.gares-en-mouvement.com/ but it
doesn't include Sens, as far as I can tell. I've been at a few smaller
train stations recently in France which didn't have the service. I don't
think the sncf website is particularly helpful for finding out this
information- and they have an odd sense of humour in displaying a place
on their front page (at the moment) which isn't accessible by train...

for those travelling by car on the auto route?

Well, I would have easily guessed what left-luggage is supposed to be.

The first time I heard the term (left-luggage) some years back I
thought it was probably referring to a place where lost luggage was
collected, like the places where airlines take lost bags,

Isn't it? That's certainly the meaning I've always assumed!

Left is the past tense of leave. It's a place to leave your luggage.

Well, yes. But that can be done intentionally and unintentionally.
For instance, someone may be upset and say something like: "Aargh! I
left my luggage in that taxi!", pointing at a cab's red lights one
hunderd meters away.

This person may call the taxi company's back office in the evening and
ask if his bags have been dropped at 'left luggage' by the driver.
[Assuming that 'left luggage' is interpreted as 'lost-and-found'.]

Left is the past tense of leave. It's a place to leave your luggage.

If you say so - I inferred "left" to mean "left inadvertently" (i.e.
"lost") ;-)

"Martin":
So explain what "check" [has] to do with left luggage, hats and rain.

In North America the act of leaving something and being given a ticket
to reclaim it is called checking it, and the ticket is a check (often
qualified by the type of object -- baggage check, hat check, coat check,
laundry check). When traveling by air (and sometimes also by train)
you may have "checked baggage" and "carry-on baggage".

If you go to a baseball game and it's canceled due to weather, you
turn in your ticket stub for compensation in the form of admission
to a future game. (Or so I hear; I'm not a baseball fan.) In this
role the stub is like a baggage check because you exchange it for an
item of value, and is called a raincheck.

(A further use of "raincheck" is as a metaphor in social situations:
it refers to an agreement to do something on a later date than was
first suggested. "Yes, I'd like to see that movie with you, but I'm
busy tomorrow; can I take a raincheck?")

....which fits very well with the North-American expression "I don't
know exactly, but my ballpark guess would be..."

[referring to spectators, who couldn't really tell whether a runner was
out or not, but at the same time boo the umpire because the call went
against their own guess, which is usually in favor of the team they're
rooting for]

Somebody before GWB made things much worse?

I'm more inclined to credit GBS! ;-) (It was some literary
heavy-weight, but I don't remember who.)
