Thalys and Eurostar always need a reservation you won´t be able to enter without or have to pay high penalties :/

SNCF is just the national rail carrier we need to know which Train category (TGV,IC,TER) or even better the Routes you are asking for :) For example Amsterdam - Brussels you can avoid thalys by reservation free Intercity or Brussels - Cologne you can avoid Thalys by reservation optional ICE :)

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

When it stands that you need a reservation, than you’re NOT allowed to hop on a train without it. 

Which train do you want to take?
