Afyonkarahisar (1st screenshot) and Kütahya (2nd screenshot), both in Türkiye.

Wonderful, that's indeed the right price, €39 per person each way. Hope it all works out great with the Spanish trains as well. Have a great trip!

You're welcome! Hopefully you'll be able to get it all sorted on Monday.

If the €29 ticket is for you, and you're travelling on a FIP coupon, then you don't need a seperate ticket for it and you should cancel it. You only need a ticket for the Lio train (which is a regional TER train) if you are travelling with the FIP discount card in which case you get a ticket...

I've seen mixed reports about it, maybe it depends on the customer service agent. I'd suggest trying to call SNCF again and if they still won't book it then try calling NS International (+31 30 23 000 23) or CFL (+352 2489 2489). NS charges €7.50 per person but they do state that they do not...

The fares charged are usually the same for FIP card and FIP coupons though.

It is possible to pre-reserve seats by calling RENFE, where you get a booking code with which you can pay for and pick up your tickets at the counter within 72 hours after calling, but at least 24 hours before the train's departure. So I'd recommend calling RENFE about 72 hours before departure...

Viaduct pulls the vehicle data from WikiData which as you say does indeed miss some vehicles you'd expect would already be added and does include some surprisingly niche vehicles. If you ever find yourself having nothing more important to do you can always add the necessary data to WikiData...

Yes you can, they don't need the number but you need to be able to show the card or coupons at the ticket check. I thought the AVE from Lyon ran through to Madrid, but as @rvdborgt pointed out it actually only runs to Barcelona so you'd need to take another train from there to Madrid. Though...

Right... I know the feeling:oops: But I thought no one would be as silly as me!:lol: I'm about to start adding my journeys from before June 2024 when I didn't log every train I took but did log the places I went to and took lots of photos! Though I'd say this map alone is worth it...

I suggest taking a look on this website, which has a lot of information about travelling with FIP and how to obtain reservations: https://www.fipguide.org/en/ You should be able to get reservations for Badajoz - Madrid and the Madrid - Narbonne AVE at the counter in Badajoz, provided the trains...

As far as I'm aware the only remaining loco-hauled passenger train in Serbia (apart from the Optima Express which has no scheduled stops in Serbia) is the Lovcen sleeper train from Belgrade to Bar in Montenegro (which I definitely recommend if only for the scenery in Montenegro, one of Europe's...

The FAQ on the same website also states the following: Daily tickets do not allow you to use local transport except Érd and Csongrád from 1st May, 2024 (although you can use interurban services between stations within any city). Found by selecting Usage, validity and then Where is my Hungary...

The FIP discounted tickets in Spain are usually the same price as those sold to those with coupons, should be about €6,50 for Avant trains. There's no quota for FIP tickets, as long as there are places available FIP tickets are sold.

In my experience this is still the case in some countries in the Balkans. I've personally experienced it the most in Montenegro by far, both on the night train Lovcen from Belgrade to Bar as well as the domestic trains people were smoking continuously. Other than that I've also experienced it in...

I use https://viaduct.world to log my train journeys and it provides me with quite a lot of interesting statistics about stations I've visited, stations I've called at, percentage of stations visited etc. and even a map showing all this. And that's in addition to lots of other cool features.

This is the first time I'm hearing about diesel loco-hauled services other than Firenze - Borgo. Do you have any more information about diesel loco-hauled trains between Ventimiglia-Cuneo-Torino and on Sardinia? Are these also D445 locos? Would be quite interesting to be travelling through...

Perhaps you could phone Eurostar, explain your situation once more and see if they would be willing to rebook you onto the earlier train? Sometimes it's just a matter of who you talk to at the time and it might be worth a shot.

Oh, I didn't know seperate non-EU eGates existed in the first place! I do know that some countries allow other passports than just Schengen passports to use eGates, but thought those eGates were all the same. My experience specifically applies to the manned booths.

Usually people holding EU passports are separated from non-EU and people are often actively directed to the respective lanes. However, the non-EU booths are also able to process EU passports if you do end up in the non-EU lane together. Obviously they won't have to go through the additional EES...
