Looking at a ticket that gives me 6 minutes to transfer. Is that doable? We are in good health, but don't want to have to run!
Coming from Strasbourg, going to Baden-Baden.

You'd be better off going through Offenburg instead of Karlsruhe, imo. It's right on the way whereas Karlsruhe is farther up and you have to backtrack. Is there a reason you want to transfer at Karlsruhe?

No reason, it seems to be where the train was taking me! I will re-look at my options. Thanks!

Where are you looking? I agree that via Karlsruhe is a detour, but so is backtracking via Offenburg. There are connections with one change in Appenweier that take you to Baden Baden in about an hour. And there are also direct TGVs, but they are not frequent.

I am using Trainline as well as the DB site. I will check out the Appenweier connection! Part of the problem is that I can see I waited a little too long to book these! Thanks for the help!

No problem with Karlsruhe Hbf re: transferring. I was there this summer and also last summer. The 2nd time this summer I was coming from Saarbrücken. All and all Karlsruhe Hbf is a nice place, spacious, and easy set -up.

I recommend you use the Appenweier route. It's not much of a station, but you'll be taking the RE 2 regional train, and if there's a delay there will be another in an hour. Lately it's a good idea to plan on a delay.
