    Suspended Thalys trains forced me to cancel my trip. I'm going to lose a lot of money: interrail pass, seat reservations, hotels... Happened to someone else. Can Thalys be held liable? Happy travels and better luck than mine. Thanks

    Strike announced on the 5th September in Hungary by the Union of Hungarian traindrivers. 

    I´ am not working for Eurail or Interrail i just share my knowledge here. Please ask in the Community and not via private message as this is the fastest way to get an answer. I prefer English/German/ Czech for my answers. In case of Reservationquestions please share some details like Route, Date, Trainnumber as otherwise we can just provide general advices or answers

    Deutsche Bahn has big problems with their Systems, and have stopped all trains in northem Germany for the moment. 

    International trains that are affacted

    IC Berlin-Hannover-Amsterdam cancelled on all the route

    IC trains Hamburg-Denmark ends/starts in Padborg (border Germany-Denmark). 

    If possible reroute your plan to not transit in north Germany. This means cities like Hamburg, Hannover or Bremen.

    For real time information check bahn.de/aktuell and DB Navigator App.

    Do you have any questions? Feel free to ask in the community! Known languages: Deutsch, Italiano, English.

    Confirm this as I am right now sitting in an ICE and saw the giant Q s for help in Dusseldorf 20 mins ago. Unclear how long this is to last.

    BElgium had a strike on 5/10 and has announced a national total strike (not just transportation) for 9/11.

    And ITaly also seems to suffer from extended short strikes in various areas for a long time.

    Last news is that since 10.10hr. the cause has been cleared (a disturbance in GSM-fone/network) and that by now trains are rolling again-expect delays and cancellations and other disturbances for a few more hours, if not all day due to complexity of the interworking network
