In case anyone else is waiting for the winter schedule to be loaded on the DB Bahn website: dates 12/12/2010 and beyond will be available on 11/2 (per email from their UK Customer Service office)

"It will be interesting to see if the timetables from the non-German railways are accurate first shot." Amazing. That's an English to English translation and I'm not sure I understand it. But I think so. I think it was just 6 month ago that the Italian Rail schedules were not loaded right away, so for a few weeks it looked like there were not any trains from Verona to Venice.

I noticed it up at 4:21 MDT today. Correction: maybe that was 5:21 MDT. My computer's clock was off. It was shortly after midnight, German time.

They are also having a special on train fares that first day or 2. So do check the DB site for more info. I think it is one of those 29 euro to anywhere in Germany thing. (haven't read their entire ad yet)

"... 29 euro to anywhere in Germany thing." That would be a Sparpreis fare.

People worry about non-refundable, train specific fares on German Rail, but they buy that kind of fares on airlines all the time.
