The first class carriage continues to Terespol and is detached in Bohumín, where the through carriages to Przemyśl are attached to IC115 from Prague. And although both trains serve Katowice, they follow different routes between Bohumín and Katowice and only IC115 serves Rybnik. That means there is 1st class on the entire journey but not in the same carriage. You'll need to book separate 1st class reservations Budapest-Bohumín and Bohumín-Rybnik. Works for me on tickets.oebb.at using “Seat reservation only”, for €3 each. Aha - that makes sense. Thank you for your help; I completely overlooked the need to change trains. All booked now.
Out of nowhere, NT 93 (and indeed NT94) seems to have gone on sale for the date I’m looking at. Seems to terminate at start from Boden with a regional train from Narvik and a 25 minute connection. Have booked accordingly.
Yes, I found the same. As far as I can see, they never opened up for dates just before 9th (and train is now not showing in timetable), so I guess for some days it just won’t run at all. As others have said, book for the connecting train and can cancel it later. Trainplanet charges just10sek for this I think - for interrai/eurail reservations. Cheers. Booking the connecting train is a last resort as I’m planning to stay in Tromso the night before, so getting to Narvik for the departure time would involve a bus at 6am, plus there’s the 14 minute connection at Boden. Neither of which are ideal! I wouldn’t trust a 14 minute connection in south east England, let alone in the middle of Sweden onto a sleeper train. I’ll mull it over though if I can’t get any sense from SJ/VY in the coming days.
Like others on this thread, I’m looking to book a reservation on this service (albeit from Narvik to Stockholm) without a lot of success thus far. Does anyone know when reservations for 24 August will likely go on sale? Or is it a case of stalking the sj.se site, as I have been doing for the last few weeks? I don’t know how helpful it is, but in my case the reservations for the direct train opened up just two weeks before departure. This was for next week - they suddenly appeared for 9th June onwards just over a week ago. I grabbed one for the 9th, but the train ended up showing fully booked after just over a day. Ugh. Two weeks’ notice is awful. Thanks for the info though. What’s most odd (I’m sure you’ve experienced this too) is dates the week before and after the date I want to book have been showing as available for ages. I asked SJ and VY on Twitter a few days ago, but haven’t had a response yet. As others have said above, this situation is crackers.

As far as I can see trains are running to Hamburg Hbf on 26th August. Use bahn.de for planning Have looked again and there aren’t any direct Copenhagen - Hamburg trains showing on Bahn.com between 0726 and 1126. Is this correct? Or will the 0926 run? If the 0926 isn’t going to run, I’ll need to change at Fredericia which isn’t a huge problem at all. Are the Fredericia - Hamburg trains subject to compulsory reservations like the Copenhagen - Hamburg services? The Interrail app says it isn’t, but I thought I’d double-check. Thanks.
https://travel.b-europe.com/dsb-rail/en/reservation-only#TravelWish You'll be able to book it here yes but you are too early, wait for a month (available 60 days in advance) Hamburg - Nuremberg (and other trains in Germany) : 3€ per train (free with a 1st class pass) on tickets.oebb.at or 4.50€ per journey (5.90€ 1st class) on bahn.de tickets.oebb.at is great and works in many countries As far as I can see trains are running to Hamburg Hbf on 26th August. Use bahn.de for planning Thanks. That was the link I was using. I’ll hold off for a month or so then.
