Dear Community 

I’m attempting to book seats on the IC 306 Hamburg to Malmo (Stockholm) 9:51-15:35 on Tuesday 26 May. Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to find a site or app where I can reserve seats. I’ve tried Eurail/Interail, DB, Snalltaget, DSB, ÖBB, etc. without success.
Can anyone enlighten me on how I can make a reservation as it says seat reservations are required.

Thanks in anticipation 

Steve Passey

It’s operated by Snälltåget, and should be able to book it on their website. There’a a box to tick to say you’re travelling with a pass, and you have to enter your pass number. It’s quite an expensive reservation IIRC. It’ll be cheaper to reserve an ECE to Copenhagen, then take the Öresund train across to Malmö

Thanks ralderton. I’ve tried Snalltaget. Unfortunately, it lets me get all the way to payment but then won’t confirm it.

It's run by Snälltåget. I can get to the payment page on their website, to enter my credit card details. Where do you get stuck? Could you post a screenshot?

I don't think you can buy it anywhere else except Snälltåget. Maybe you can get through to their customer services?

Otherwise, can you get the 0853 to Copenhagen instead? That’ll should be possible for €3 through ÖBB, and arrives an hour earlier with the change in Copenhagen.

Many thanks people. I’ve booked the earlier train to Copenhagen, then another to Malmo.
