The best way is using the Intercity Train to Amsterdam which departs hourly at minute 20 or 22 and takes 37 minutes to Antwerpen with one intermediate stop at Mechelen. Other intercity trains take about 43 minutes to include three stops in between. Interregio trains take 45 to 50 minutes and have 6 or 7 intermediate stops. A total of 5 trains are departing hourly from Brussel Centraal Station to Antwerpen. The regular ticket is €6.60.
