"Eurostar, Germany's Deutsche Bahn and France's SNCF as well as the Dutch, Austrian, Swiss and Belgian rail operators have signed up to the scheme."
Noticable what major western european rail system doesn't get mentioned though. Hopefully ATOC will sign up in the future to allow through ticketing from all parts of the UK to lots of European destinations.
