How long before departure should you be at the train station?

Times vary from airport to airport, from air carrier to air carrier and even from day to day. A general guideline is 1 1/2 hours before departure for US domestic travel when checking bags. 2 hours before departure for International departures. For major holiday travel, add another 30 minutes, just to be sure. If you have no bags to check-in, most carriers now have some form of online check-in or airport based kiosk (self service) check-in that might allow you shave some time off your check-in.

How is the Eiffel Tower maintained?

SETE - Société d'Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel. This is a limited public-private company which holds the franchise until 2015. The City of Paris owns 59.9 percent, and various finance houses the rest (except for 0.01 percent belonging to the Paris Tourism and Congress Office). Separate companies run the souvenir stalls, the restaurants and biffets, the telescopes, the ATMs and the guided tours. Profits are about 4 million euros a year (less tax), resulting from a revenue of 66 million, of which 24 go to personnel, 9 to the City of Paris in royalties, 14 to paying of debts. These are th#e figures I can find; the rest, presumably, goes on maintenance and refitting, of which there is a lot.
