Spring (March 2026) Interrail Global Pass sale - rail ticket across 33 countries

[whole diary]

[grahame]

I am looking forward as the days get warmer and longer to travelling to new places.   Interrail are having a 15% off sale for the rest of this month - https://www.interrail.eu/en/interrail-passes/global-pass - on their global passes allowing anything from 4 days to 3 months of travel across 33 countries - and here are some pictures of mine taken (all bar one) during such a trip











On virtually all local and regional trains across mainland Europe, you can just "toggle" a train and jump on and off trains as you wish. 

Small print

In your home country, you are limited to 2 days - outbound and inbound is the idea.  And on long distance and international trains in some countries reservations are required at extra cost, and limited numbers only may be available.  Local tram underground, metro, tram, bus systems not included nor are private railways or many open access operators. And the price does not include accommodation, food and drink, entrance to museums and sites, phone roaming, shoe leather, souvenirs. or gifts to bring home for loved ones, all of which can add up

I remember reading here in the winter that the printed version of the spring international rail timetable wouldn't be available until March. Does anyone know if it is now available?

Came out late last month - and I have a copy ...

Now, why doesn't that surprise me? 

I have had the pleasure of seeing, and indeed dipping into, grahame's comprehensive library of published railway timetables. He has at least one copy of all of them - since 1804, when Richard Trevithick invented the railways.
