Yes.  Also this train goes to Gare de I'Est station in Paris and from there one can go by walking/metro/taxi to many famous places for pitstop; also connector to CDG.   I'm lovin the France legs.

Zack.:
Peach, I think that's just the bottom of the RI; I think they're headed to the Pit Stop.

And is Allie holding a Detour clue or a map when they crash? We do know one team gets lost on the way to the Detour.

caper:
The B is the symbol used for Bordeaux

It is, but also named Notre-Dame just like the more famous one in Paris.

No trains go to CDG from Reims, but the new champagne-Ardennes TGV station is only 5km from Reims, so that is where AR16 teams are very likely to have boarded the TGV direct to CDG. It takes only 30 to 34 minutes because CDG is 16 miles NE of Paris center and Reims is ENE of Paris center
Here is the official current schedule and it is probably quite close to the one in effect in the first week of December:
