Hello

I’m super frustrated with the planning process for my trip to Scotland :-/

Among other frustrating things about interrail, there is no map available, neither on the website nor on the app (I know there is a map of your trips but only after booking your trip - so not helpful at all). The map on the interrail-website is a road map only, which is a bad joke :-/

I tried open railway map, which is helpful if you have a computer or notebook, but it is hard to see where stations are (or not).

I also tried the printed/pdf map but again this is not detailed enough

Any help for a good map to use would be highly appreciated.

Here are some maps of rail routes in Scotland: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/plan-your-journey/our-routes

And rest of the UK: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations_destinations/rail-maps.aspx


Guess your best bet is indeed go for a combo of OpenRailway map and local rail maps.

Some options:

@Steve Weber Actually, the Swiss Railways nail it again: 😎

The online map I just sent is very detailed, and encompasses almost all of Europe.

Although the features only work in Switzerland but all other passenger rail maps seem to be correct.
