I'm wondering about the TrainOSE bus/train combination between Patras and Piraeus that is included with the Eurail Greek Islands 6 Day Pass. Does anyone know if it’s necessary to make a reservation or buy a ticket prior to boarding, or can you simply board by showing your pass? If you have to make a reservation, how do you do so? The TrainOSE website doesn't seem to offer the Eurail/Interrail pass as discount option.

The Greek islands pass is accepted between Patras and Piraeus, in the trains and buses of OSE. No reservation possible as far as I know.

AFAIK there are NO REServ needed-or even possible for these local trains. Double check if that Gr-Isl pass is indeed accepted-sales nrs are so low that its often completely unknown and Greek railways staff is in general not noted for knowledge outside their direct job. Also note this pass is ONLY valid o 1 or 2 ferry-companies and this makes several islands out of reach for it, as to there ply other ferries.
