Here is today's version of the train schedule form Caen to Gare St. Lazare: (it's about a 2 hour ride)

Great work! :cmas9 Just outside the fuzzylands, too. The curved roof matches, but I think it's the terminal on the other side of the runway (picture source). As far as the charters go, I agree that it's a bit odd: there should be available clubs and companies closer to Normandy than the ones they chose.

My gahd, they are recreating the jump in Normandy of the 101st Airborne on D-day, June 6, 1944!, Hope none of them get hung up on the church steeple in St. Marie de Igles (Remember Red Buttons in the movie, The Longest Day?)

not sure what the detour is in Paris
** The final three Teams depart Spain and travel to France, knowing that every decision they make is crucial in this final leg of the Race.
**One Team gets left behind when the other two Teams discover and board an earlier train to their next destination.
** Once they arrive, Teams battle it out in a tedious Detour that causes frustration and arguments to ensue.
**Teams must do everything they can in order to maintain their composure and finish the task in order to receive their next clue.
**At the Roadblock, a 12,000 foot skydive causes a rift between team members that must be mended before they can move forward.
**Teams battle it out in the final destination city in an all out effort to reach the Finish Line first and claim the One Million Dollar Prize

This is just a lot of misdirection, a bunch of hooey. No matter what happens in Spain, Normandy, or Paris we KNOW that all three teams are together on June 24 on Delta (Air France) flight 8600 leaving Paris at 8:25AM.
So all that does matter is what happens in New York City. Do they find the News Building on 42nd street without difficulty (Bama has already been seen in the wrong place); and how fast can they get up the Hudson to the final mat and do they have to do something first across the river at West Point. Those are the burning questions, not what happens on June 22/23 in Europe.
