How to check whether I need reservations?
To check if a train requires reservations, we recommend the following steps:
- Go to http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?ld=212.27&newrequest=yes
- Fill in your departure station and destination
- In the screen which shows the connections, click on 'details for all'
- You can now see the details of the trains. If a train requires a reservation, this is listed as 'compulsory reservation' in the train details. There is also a small red icon with an 'R'.
