I've stumbled on a couple of things that may be of interest: 1. Nightjet website offers family compartments on Nightjets, but not in Hungarian Euronights Zurich to Vienna, Budapest, Zagreb, or Berlin to Budapest. MAV does, and sometimes at very reasonable prices. 2. MAV is actively promoting its...

I understand if you get on a train at a station that can't sell you the ticket you want, you need to buy it at the first available opportunity, ie on the train, at a station where you change trains if there's enough time, or at the end of the journey. Does this also apply if you wanted to buy a...

Just came across this: https://mobile.twitter.com/JoanneMCrompton/status/1643878780409110533 I know there are always at least two sides to any story. From what I can gather, Joanne is exactly the sort of person the industry should be encouraging. I can't see how this action can protect the...

While nightjets are filling up fast, there's no availability for paris-vienna and v.v for late July and early August 2023. Does anyone know if it's full or booking hasn't opened yet? I know there are lots of engineering works going on around that time

A tangent from the never-ending short straits foot passenger discussion in the international transport section, GetLink's (channel tunnel owners) accounts published today and the newish electrical interconnector seems like a much more profitable business than the transport business. Sharpening...

Ukrainian railways offering tickets via donation to be on the first trains to liberated territories. Probably not much use to UK based people as you only get 12 hours notice of when your train is departing, but nonetheless an interesting idea: https://concert.ua/en/events/kvitki-do-peremogi

Just stumbled on this link to fundazione FS on Twitter: https://www.fondazionefs.it/content/fondazionefs/en/itineraries.html?region=&train-type=&month= May be of interest

I'm thinking of getting a train at about 330AM on a Sunday. Is the side/North entrance open at this time or only the main southern entrance by the tram stop?

As Britain's heritage railways begin packing away all their gear from the Santa Specials and "trains of lights" for another year, and dismantling the tracks from their usual limits of operations to the North Pole, it occurred to me that while I've never been for a walk around outside any of the...

It appears there are no first class fares from Worcester or worcestershire parkway to Birmingham. Very much a first world problem I know, but since all the trains from parkway to Birmingham have first class, presumable someone might want to travel in it. What happens if a std class ticket holder...

Chilcotts auctioneers in Honiton have a rather nice looking white on red double arrows sign with a Honiton sign up for auction, guide price £100-150. When I grow up I'll learn how to add a link.

From December Zurich to Munich services are in the hands of ETR610s. Does anyone know what SBB will be doing with the 1st class panorama coaches that will be freed up?

There used to be an easement permitting Exeter, Newton Abbott etc passengers to stay on to Plymouth and double back (easement 2 lots of zeroes 4?). I can't find it in the current easement list. Does it still exist?

I recently found a link here to a weird West Midlands Railway site that only sold bargain tickets to Birmingham airport. I can't find it anymore even with the help of Google. Was it my first ever Railforums based dream or does it actually exist?
