As I now reread this thread-and did hardly see any total counts, to this question not responded to: One of these new ´systems=1 single line (and I was on it when operating) is closed as too few pax; VELEZ Malaga, on the south coast east of Malaga-but they now seem quite committed to re-opening...

Simply buying the ticket is a matter of seconds-maybe 1 minute. The faff-British will know that far better as me, is thus getting off the boat and in what is now foreign=non-Schengen territory for you. Normal Espanol shops as supermarkets etc are mostly closed sundays. Some small kiosks or the...

DB-or more likely the comp they hire to serve these things, has this yr indeed slowly started-mostly in the main big cities, to replace the dozens yrs old system with these new things. Germany is still and remains a rare country that does love real cash (the major reason often given is to...

Assuming this wont be the only trip you will do by publ trsp: present complete program for best advice Generally this 1 month DE-ticket @ NOW 49€-58 from 1/1 is best value, but DO carefully read and adhere to the plenty advice-also several posts on this forum, as its in principle a running...

Sorry, dk this. Generally these type of Qs when even this forum cannot provide answer, try tripadvisor-the world wide general touristy info-forum. Usually one gets answers there from people who understand the always the same queries and can answer from own experience. Even IF it includes local...

In Austria every ´Land´=province has its own like Verbund-style (PTE if you´re old enough in GB) integrated fare system. Means that indeed this ticket is valid in all of Tirol-and that also includes 2 lines going via Italy to Ost-Tirol (there is also a much faster express bus linking) and via...

Frankly, sorry to say so, but the view from the continent=the other side of the North-Sea from your island since it left EU is that controls to enter there are much as you describe. PLUS that one needs a real passport-book, the trusty ID will not work anymore-probably as its unknown over there...

Much more as usual, as holding after a 2-month InterRail global from the 25% off black frd sale a DE-ticket for 5 months and doing weekly trips from NL to there=2/week, but of course often on same lines. Must really delve into my notes-which I cannot as for the mo in tropical TH/Bkk, but should...

Minor update: the plans are to re-start this service as per new timetable in dec. Its certainly not ´could´ but ´shall´

Very sad indeed. Plus that this NSad will get its extended fast trains to Beograd planned from late this month or early dec-so it must be some prestige project. Frankly I think most construction from the truely communist times are wacky there

1. there may be no seats free left ALL the way. Wich means you can find empties, but may have to change seats somewhere. Its all very clearly (if it all works-but this usually does-unlike the timekeeping or other aspects) shown on the small displays 2.BahnBONus seats: in theory reserved for...

And-of course depending on route wanted, these trains often reverse in some head-on stations like FRAnkfurt or STUttgart. Given the actual state of cancels and delays this seems to me just a very minor detail that DB will not take as 1st to get rectified

Would also rec Kehl=just across the Rhine brdige, small size town in Germany/Baden-Wŕttemberg-both the Stras tram+ hourly-and often horribly overcrowded small train, even faster as that Illich. I often stay in Hotel BB-check their own site, they are both big in DE and FR-in Kehl a fairly new one...

And as for UIC being the general accepted cooperation: just read in the german DSO forum that VR=Finnish (state) railways are planning to step out of it. Details as such to be confirmed.

Or one more time again-for the usual routes that the tipical (1st time) tourists take: seat61.com For regional SNCF: most regions also provide a map of their part of the big national system online-but DO check timings, as some lines may be very, very infrequent indeed For exploring what you...

1.Utrecht also has a tramline, toward the UNI-centre (where I studied when it was just started construction-some 50 yrs ago) 2.Senior discount as such ONLY applies to bustrammetro, NOT for trains. IF you plan to use those in the AMS area a lot more, one of the various passes-some also include...

In the countries-or even continents that are noted/known for their few&far trainservices: in Africa, South America, both having now cities grown outsized big (f.e. also Brasilia as new capital of Brasilia) and of course USA, Mexico. Germany has several more what they call ´Grossstaedte´= having...

The longer part of this is Milano-Bologna, where the old or new lines are mostly side by side and its flat & uninteresting. Blg-Fir. has the oldest and later old line-one can still travel via the very old line, with several changes and if having lots of time-it will not connect smoothly. The...

Again this also raises thr question as to what is ´TRAM (strassenbahn here in /de/)´ and/or ´light-rail/metro/interurban/whatever. Germany has a few of those interurban lines, like Albtal from Karlsruhe and the 2 around Mannheim/Ludwigshafen that have only a very limited, mostly hourly service...

As for what to use in Paris on RATP-or more: will all depend on how often, how far. The Navigo will want you to get a customercard with foto made-and hence takes time&effort (but valid for 5 yrs). The ´iconic´ or labelled as such cardbd-with magn stripe- single use metro tickets, in the also...
