While were on the subject of trains...fare increases!

Posted by Nick B. on 2008-12-14 08:14:27

DB raised their prices today (more or less an annual occurance), so, for example, Erlangen - Bamberg costs 6.90 € instead of 6.60 € (without Bahncard or other discounts), for a 4.5% increase. The average fare increase nation wide is 3.9% according to DB. Schedules have also been updated, so if you've saved your own personal schedules for, say, Würzburg - Bamberg, check them again. And when you do, note that DB have (US: "has") changed the website YET AGAIN, though apparently only superficially; the same dumb things requiring extra multiple click(s) are still there.
