Traveling the Eurail Express

By Jay Brunhouse

This well-written and easy-to-use guidebook will help readers buy a ticket and take the ride aboard any one of Europe's passenger trains. From London's "the Route of the Flying Scotsman" to France's high-tech TGV Genevois, this massive guide brings to life the thrill of traveling European trains.
Traveling the Eurail Express is a thorough guide to smart traveling. It provides tips on arranging your itinerary, paying for transportation, using European subways or rapid-transit connections, and choosing what to do upon arriving at one's destination.
Through this guide, traveling on the trains of Europe turns into a cross-country sightseeing adventure. Go train-spotting with Britain's young crowd, ride Marie Antoinette's wedding route through Hell's Valley in Germany, or take the InterCity train in Benelux through the site of the Battle of the Bulge on the back rails of the Ardennes forest.
It is all here in this complete guide through Europe via the railroad. Europe's trains are presented as "tour guides" to scenic routes with views of rivers, lakes, and the Alps. These trains go above and beyond the call of duty by not only providing transportation, but also creating memories.
