How long is it on the train from Brussles train station ( where Euro star arrives) to Bruges?

I am going to Bruges on Euro star and would like to know how long it takes on the train from Brussles to the centre of Bruges.How long is it on the train from Brussles train station ( where Euro star arrives) to Bruges?It's dead easy to do this connection. The Eurostar arrives in Brussels Midi station. To get to Bruges you can catch any train going westwards towards the coast. Your Eurostar ticket is valid for this journey so just go along to the Information desk (they're easy to spot) and ask for the next train the Bruges. The staff speak English. Or, just consult the overhead info screens and check for departures and platform. The journey takes about an hour but Bruges railway station is not in the town centre so, either catch a bus right outside the station which will drop you off in the centre or take a taxi from the station to your hotel.

A word of warning!! Beware of thieves operating in pairs or small groups on the concourses at Brussels Midi station. They usually are of Asian appearance (Vietnamese, Korean, etc) and are after your bags and suitcases. The either cause an "event" which will distract your from your luggage or one will ask you for information while an accomplice will have it away with your bags. It happened to me and my brother. We gave chase and the thieves gave us our cases back.How long is it on the train from Brussles train station ( where Euro star arrives) to Bruges?about one hourHow long is it on the train from Brussles train station ( where Euro star arrives) to Bruges?The Eurostar arrives at Brussels-Midi Eurostar, then it's a little walk to the part of Brussels-Midi station where the other trains leave from, then it's an hour to Brugge.
