Hi everyone, on the Eurail map in front of me, I see coloured lines. There is a red line from Toulouse in France, via Latour de Carol, Puigcerdá to Barcelona.
In other words, according to this map, I can go that route with Eurail.
However, when I enter this in the planner, there is no option such as this.
How does this work?

You don't find any trains because Renfe (Spanish railways) don't share their complete timetables, so Latour-de-Carol to Barcelona (and many other suburban lines) is missing. You can find them here though:

Latour-de-Carol (French) is the same as La Tor de Querol (Catalan).

The regional trains on the Spanish side do not appear on most planners as the company cannot be bothered to send the data to the European database basically.

The route across the Pyrénées is really beautiful. Sadly connections at the border are far from optimized. You may have to wait 1h-1h30 in the middle of nowhere. It's a fun adventure nonetheless! :)
Okay, but the train that is available, is it included in the Eurail pass?
Yes, sure, it's operated by Renfe, so it's included. No reservations needed or possible.

Yes, both the French and Spanish trains via that route are included. You will have to add the Spanish train manually to your pass. You can look up the times on the websites mentioned above.
