Buy your train reservation at a railway station. These are usually available at stations in all countries where a particular train runs through. In many countries, especially in central and eastern Europe you can also buy reservations for trains in other countries. In some countries (for instance in the Netherlands or Spain) you have to pay a service fee at the ticket counter.

Eurocity are classic international express trains, operating on many routes from Austria to neighbouring countries. Depending on the destination the trains can consist of coaches from different national railway companies, all with differences in interior design and comfort. Usually you will find both open-plan and compartment carriages.
