Enjoy Europe by Train By William Dunn Soft Cover 1974 255 pages
Delight and adventure await the traveler who shuns guided tours to explore Europe by rail. William J. Dunn, a peripatetic reporter and dedicated globe-trotter, reveals the pleasures of European trains which are sometimes obscured by the seemingly forbidding world of foreign travel.
Here is a book for the first-timer who wants a convenient, carefree method for the Grand Tour of the Continent and British Isles; here, too, is a book for the veteran traveler who is looking for new experiences in little-known hamlets and villages.
The reader views the whole world of Naglemacher, the entrepreneur behind Wagon-Lits. Couchettes, T-E-E's, Eurailpasses, bahnhofs shed their mystery, but gain allure. With an expert behind the scenes, the advantages of train travel become clear and almost irresistible.
The author guides the novice through the maze of different accommodations; he describes the most advantageous routes; he gives the first-timer hints on food, timetables, reservations, and many of the details (such as baggage checking and tips for porters).
Here is the general-background information on sleeping and dining, on the helpfulness of the terminals, on the major international trains and on trains over water. A country-by-country discussion includes specific information on the trains and terminals of the major cities, on the best ways to get to and from such cities as Munich and Amsterdam, or Paris and Rome. He discusses the individual characteristics of each country's services, and the available secondary lines for the adventurous.
