I normally use
National Rail Enquiries for planning rail journies in the UK, but today's Guardian Online suggested
Deutsche Bahn's site. So, I went there, plugged in for a jouney from Biggleswade to Lecce (a town in southern Italy) and got the result (transferred via Notepad) below. Impressive, eh. OK they've left
train as the German
Zug, but otherwise . . .
