All About Train Travel

Seating Options

  • Are there bathrooms on the train?

    Bathrooms are easily accessible on all trains and are frequently marked with the letters WC (Water Closet). Usually found at the front or back of each train car, they include a sink, toilet and locking door.

  • Can I request a forward facing seat?

    No, but this due to practical reasons. Since most trains generally pull into a station in one direction and pull out in another, seat positions frequently change.  If you’d like to change your seat, ask the conductor who can help you to find a new seat.

  • Are there electrical outlets on the train?

    Availability of electrical outlets on the trains varies widely by country and train type.

     

    Please note that when outlets are available, they are in European format.
