I am trying to buy tickets from Zurich to Amsterdam on the 19/04 Nightjet on OBB’s website, but I am getting an error:

currently not available: Due to construction work or missing timetable information, it is currently not possible to book a reservation for this train. It is not yet possible to predict when the information will be available. Please check regularly to see whether your connection can already be reserved.”

Will there be any work on the rails on that day?

Dates before the 15th are available, from 16th to 18th are sold out, but on the 19th it simply says “not available” instead of sold out.  I am wondering if it is safer to wait until that date becomes available or to try and work around it, buying an earlier date instead

I found this information on sbb.ch:

Interrupted train service on the Freiburg(Breisgau) Hbf - Offenburg line between Freiburg(Breisgau) Hbf and Denzlingen.
This is due to construction work.
The restriction lasts from 18.04.2025, 21:00 until 28.04.2025, 02:00.
You have to expect cancellations, changed timetables and different connections.
Passengers travelling between Freiburg(Breisgau) Hbf and Offenburg please use the replacement bus service (EV).
We recommend you to check your timetable online shortly before travelling.
The online timetable will be updated.

I forgot something. The Nightjet will probably be rerouted via Schaffhausen, but, as indicated, the new timetable is currently not available.
