Traveling with lots of luggage at Brussels, Midi Railway Station (ZYR)

I am flying with Air France from Montreal to Brussels and then take the Thalys to Cologne, which is my final destination. Air France booked me on a train from Paris to Brussels, so I will already be at the train station in Brussels. I have three large bags and backpack as carry-on. So, I probably won't be able to carry those bags.

Do they provide luggage carts or something similar at the train station in Brussels? Will Air France forward my luggage to Brussels or will I have to haul it onto the train?

Edit 1: Air France does not forward the luggage to Brussels. It has to be picked up at CDG and then hauled on the train (I am at CDG at the moment, will update)

Edit 2: I successfully switched the trains in Brussels. It was a bit of a headache. Supposedly there are carts available, but I couldn't find any on the platform. All the TGV/Thalys/Eurostar platforms are very close together, so I was able to get to my train with a little help from people.
