    But did you know that the German minister in charge of the railways, a liberal*, has already questioned the costs of the ticket and announced he’d not participate in any additional funding?

    And the German government in charge of the ticket already voiced their interest in making both tickets compatible so that people can use the traffic in either country with the ticket of the other one

    Could lead to a pseudo-standard that could result in an eu-wide ticket of such type in the long run

        Having public transport available without having to worry about buying a ticket just because of the subscription you already have anyway is far better than interrail

        This ticket is not for long distance travel but for shorter distances - it will be an extension to interrail and not a replacement

            and that’s contradicting my point how?

            In Germany the ticket is only for regional trains - if you want to go from Berlin to Munich you’ll have to pay money to get there in 4 hours or spend the whole day travelling in 12+ hours

            how would that be an alternative to interrail?
