paulmcb Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 evening, Just booking my train tickets from Amsterdam to Düsseldorf...Not really wanting to be committed to the train times incase flights are delayed..Does anyone know if there is a massive price difference from paying on the train/at the counter to paying for them online ? Googled trip advisor etc but no answers.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock strap Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I've just tried to get Bremen to Dortmund on Saturday about 1100 hours and back on Tuesday mid-day ish for 2 and got a quote of €380 in total ! That canna be right surely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I just checked, you should be able to get it for about €70 each. Also FYI: If you book it about 2 months ago, it should be €19 each way each. The €19 fares are still available but you'll have to travel at pretty awful times (5.40am or 8.40pm (for €29)).

BrianR1964 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I arrive in schiphol on the Saturday 6am flight out Of Glasgow. A couple of weeks ago I booked the 14.36 ICE train from the Dam to Dusseldorf. Cost 50 euros first class. Prior to that it was 28 Euros For standard fare but that suddenly disappeared and first class Was cheaper. Thought that price was ok. Includes Lounge access which means can get a couple of Free shots before journey. I'm sure I can find something To kill a few hours in Amsterdam before train !
