Travel Europe by rail
The EUROPE has over 212 000 km of railways with extensive international passenger services. There are over 6 000 km of high-speed lines in several countries with trains reaching speeds of up to 350 km/h and the network is being extended.
International rail passenger services are becoming more competitive. Since the beginning of 2010 any licensed, certified rail company established in the europe union is now able to offer international services with the right to pick up and set down passengers at any station along the international route.
Rail passengers’ rights have been reinforced and improved with better information and rights in the event of delay, missed connections and cancellations. The disabled and elderly are now entitled to free assistance at stations and on trains provided advance notice of special requirements is given.
