Bayeux to Market Harborough help?

Hi- Looking for recommendations on best way to book trip for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) from Bayeux, France to Market Harborough, UK (1hr north of london) in mid June. We have 1st class Eurail passes (mobile). I think I have some parts figured out but could use input on a few things.Per Google maps, we can take get there in 3 main steps (all in one day):1- 930 am TER train from Bayeux, France to Gare St Lazare in Paris (1200) , then transfer to RER E- go one stop to get to Gare du Nord to pickup the Eurostar to London St Pancras 2- 1512 pm Eurostar to London St Pancras3- EMR train from London St Pancras to Market Harborough, UKHere are my questions:I know our Eurail pass will get us through legs 1+2 of the trip. Is it valid on EMR trains in UK (leg 3) since the 3 legs will be within a single day of travel? I searched and couldnt get a definitive answer. If pass is valid on leg 3 of trip to Market Harborough, would you recommend a reservation for that one hour ride since our Eu

Best station in Belgium or Germany near the Dutch border to start a journey?

So here is the problem. I am planning to get an Interrail ticket for 2 months in a row. I want to make multiple trips starting from my home country, the Netherlands. The ticket only got 2 inbound/outbound journeys. So that is only for one trip. For the other trips I would have to get a train ticket to a first station across the border, I learned today. For me it is also an option to drive to a station close to the border in Belgium (or Germany), park my car there, to start a journey at that station. That is often cheaper than getting a ticket for the first station abroad. For example, I start my journey in Essen (Belgium). The first station in Belgium on the Roosendaal to Antwerp line. It is a 125 km return drive for me, so roughly 20 euro in costs with the car. With public transport it would be 35 euro return.This is the starting point of my journey in the Netherlands, by car or public transport. My question for the community: does someone have experience with the same "problem”? If y

inbound on night train

Hi I just used my inbound for the night train but the inbound is connected to the day before and now I can’t use the ticket anymore today even though I crossed the border past midnight. Is there a possibility that I can use the ticket still today in my country of residence?

I bought 2nd class reservations on Italian trains through interrail site and I received 1st class reservations that i cannot use.

A month ago, I bought 2nd class reservations on Italian trains through interrail site and I received 1st class reservations that i cannot use.I emailed support back then and added a message to a pre-existing thread on the same problem.  Since then I created a new topic on the problem and emailed support twice. I can see the issue in the knowledge base still open.My issue has progressed from a problem to be fixed, to an urgent request, and then to a request for a refund.After 1 month i have not had any reply from the interrail team.  what else can i do?

Broken phone, need to switch device urgently

Unfortunately my phone does not recharge anymore, in the middle of an interrail trip. I need my pass unblocked so I can switch device, it is kind of urgent as I plan to take another train trip tomorrow around 3pm, so I am in a hurry to get it fixed. I did sent a message to eurail on Facebook, but how do I make sure to get a fast reply?

Activation of two passes at the same time

Hello, I want to travel three months and come back to my home country (Germany) during the first one. That’s why I bought one pass with 4 travel days within one month and another one with 15 travel days within 2 months. Two of the 4 days from the first pass I want to use to get off my home country and to come back. Means there is one left. As I can’t use this one to start from my homecountry again, I want to know, if I can use for the second time to leave my homecountry the second pass I bought (14 travel days within two months) to get to France and if it is possible to afterwards (but within the 30 days) use the first pass again in France (not homecountry) so the 4th travel day wouldn’t be wastetd. This means for a couple of days two passes would be activated for the same time and person.Is this possible? Thanks for your answer.

Reservation time does not match the train times on the website

Hello,I booked a reservation from London to Paris via Lille. According to my reservation the train leaves at 11.04 but when i look for the train on the website I cannot find it to add to my trip. I now understand that the app is offline so times may not match but I thought the website would be correct - also does it matter if the time in my trips is different from the reservation.Sorry if this is a bit basic but I am a newby.

Making seat resevations in advance for Spain

Is there any other way to make a seat reservation in Spain (Madrid - Barcelona) other than in person at a station in Madrid? We are travelling in August but are based in the US. I'm concerned that we won't have seats if we wait until we arrive in August to make reservations.
