Eurail Train Timetable
I am planning a trip to Europe. My question is explained below.?
According to the Eurail Timetable for trains that I am using, there are no trains that go from Bern to Florence. I’m really confused, how will I get from Bern to Florence if there are no Eurail trains?
Here is the timetable I used:
http://www.eurail.com/downloads/eurail/eurail-timetable-2010-trains-europe.pdf
I don’t wanna fly or take a bus. Is there a way I can take a train to a station and then get on another train to get to Florence?
There are trains to Florance, it is just that the databases use the Italian spelling of the name rather than the English.
I prefer this planner: http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?newrequest=yes&protocol=http:&
It finds Florance as Firenze, which is the Italian spelling.
Looking at the timetable you linked to also gives the town as Firenze.
Just remember that a timetable like that only gives a selection of trains, a rail planner like the one I link to here gives many more trains.
‘From Bern you travel to Milano, and there you catch the train to Florance/Firenze, sometimes you will have to change more times, but every time I checked the travel went through Milan, local spelling Milano.
An other site that can be very useful is: http://www.seat61.com/
Specially the page on railpasses: http://www.seat61.com/Railpass.htm
By the way, there are no Eurail trains, Eurail is a ticket seller for the different European train companies.and the name of a pass that allows travel several European countries. You can use a lot of trains that are not in the timetable you linked to.
