Hello,
How long does it take to go by train from Geneva to Zurich?
And will I need to buy a ticket in advance, or can I just arrive at the main Geneva railway station and buy a ticket shortly before the train departs?
Thanks
You can find times, details and fares for Swiss trains in English here:
http://www.sbb.ch/en/
Journey time is around 2h 45m. One-way standard fare e.g 88 euro (depends to some extent on departure).
It is not essential to buy tickets online in advance but you may be able to get supersaver discount tickets if you do so (tied to particular departure times).

What?! That's more than it cost to go from Paris to Geneva on the TGV!!!!
but thanks =)
Sorry....it's 80 euro. I misread the site. :-)
But there are supersaver offers, as I said, so do check for your date/departure times.
prices on SBB are in CHF, not EUR.
so 80.00CHF are 54.50EUR
You may be able to buy a supersaver tickets instead of a standard one
in this case 64.00CHF=43.60
if you are eligible for Travelcard 1/2 all prices are half.
different kind of train, travel time it's between 2h40m and 3h
O duh! Sorry...really did misread the site.
At least I was right about the supersavers.....
Sent you a message! Please check your mailbox here. Good luck for your trip.
My dilemma during all my studies at the Geneva's University...
Heureux l'étudiant qui, comme la rivière, peut suivre son cours sans quitter son lit.
Let's try in english:
Happy the student who like the river wants to complete his course without leaving his bed.
Does it make sense also in English???
Visit CERN.
European Organization for Nuclear Research.
CERN is the world's largest particle physics centre. Founded in 1954, the laboratory was one of Europe's first joint ventures, and has become a shining example of international collaboration. From the original 12 signatories of the CERN convention, membership has grown to the present 20 Member States.
WHERE THE WEB WAS BORN:
In late 1990, Tim Berners-Lee, a CERN computer scientist invented the World Wide Web (that you are currently using). The 'Web' as it is affectionately called, was originally conceived and developed for the large high-energy physics collaborations which have a demand for instantaneous information sharing between physicists working in different universities and institutes all over the world. Now it has millions of academic and commercial users.
Tim together with Robert Cailliau wrote the first WWW client (a browser-editor running under NeXTStep) and the first WWW server along with most of the communications software, defining URLs, HTTP and HTML. In December 1993 WWW received the IMA award and in 1995 Tim and Robert shared the Association for Computing (ACM) Software System Award for developing the World-Wide Web with M.Andreesen and E.Bina of NCSA.

Carouge, once a seperate city is now a part of Geneva's urban area. Charming streets lined with three-story buildings house boutiques where one can find the latest in creative fashion, jewelery, furniture, and decorations. Zabo Chapeaux is a must for those searching for hats with imagination and quality. 31, rue St.-Joseph, Carouge tel:(022)301 7576
After having had a dinner or a drink at the nearby Hora Fugit, enter the most hip club of Geneva, the Platinum.
Known from Eastern-European and Middle-Eastern crowds, this club is probably the most exclusive in Geneva, even if it's open for everybody.
The atmosphere is really hip but sometimes a little too harsh, as it is often the case when too much money and alcohol mix. Dress classy. Security is not easy at all.
