Hi! I am traveling from Lourdes to Toulouse where I will, hopefully, make a connection to Cannes. I have about 7-10 minutes to make the connection. Is the Toulouse train station easy to navigate? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Yes, if you%26#39;ve been there before! ;)
I arrived at Toulouse Matabiau around 11:30pm after taking the wrong train from Avignon and managed to find my next train. If I can do it, you can, too. The SNCF staff (dressed in blue) are very helpful. Feel free to ask them for assistance.
Don%26#39;t make it a habit, though. Next time, buy tickets with more generous transfer time (20 mins miniumum).

When you arrive at Toulouse either ask a member of staff for the correct platform for your next train as suggested or look up at the TV screens marked %26#39;correspondances%26#39; (connections) which lists the next few trains and the platforms they will leave from.
I agree that a 7 - 10 minute connection is a bit tight, as even the slightest delay will have you nervously looking at your watch and stating to twitch!
I was OK as my most recent journeys ended and started at Toulouse. My train from Nantes was about 8 minutes behind time on arrival at Toulouse, not bad after a 6 1/2 hour journey.
