rail pass is still a great bargain ByVlNCEEGAN Travel Columnist Thomson News Service The familial now 30 years old is back for in a slightly expanded version at a slightly expanded The socalled pass actually a prepaid multinational ticket good for unlimited use during a specified period costs only about two per cent more than it did a Thats because its basic price is stated in US funds and our curren cy has risen considerably against the Yankee dollar The basic US price for is about seven per cent higher than last years For Hungary has joined the network of European nations railways honoring the Its the first eastern or Communistbloc country to join the list which includes Austria Belgium Denmark Finland France Greece Ireland Italy Luxembourg the Netherlands Norway- Portugal Spain Sweden Switzerland and West Germany Another change for passholders Is the elimination of all special sur charges for fast trains And the Express TEE all- firstclass service has been replac ed by the network of two- class trains WHAT IT COSTS Here are current Canadian prices of EuraJIpasses which are subject to change to reflect shifts in foreignexchange rates The basic for adults is for the 15day validi ty for 21 days for one month for two months and for three months The Eurail Saverpass good for 15 days and for a minimum of three people travelling together costs per person from April 1 to Sept The Eurail which can be used for any nine days of one day at a time within a 21day period costs Statistics indicate that the typical holder uses a 21day pass on only seven days An overnight trip commenc ing between 7 pm and midnight counts as only one validation date for Flexipass holders the Eurail for peo ple up to and including 25 years of age costs for one month and for two months It is valid only in second class on the trains while those passes described above are good for firstclass travel IN A PINCH It is no longer impossible for a North American to buy a Eurailpass in Europe itself as it once was But a surcharge is- levied on the purchase price and that price must be paid in local currency As well the purchasers passport must confirm that the holder entered Europe within the previous six months Before buying a Eurailpass con sider the alternatives carefully If your rail travel is to be confined to a single European country it would be better to choose the pass applicable to that countrys railway system alone If you wont be travelling exten sively ask yourself whether it might be cheaper to make a one time payment perhaps with a youth or senior discount than to buy an unlimitedtravel pass MISSING LINKS There are two noteworthy gaps in the Eurail network One is the British Rail system On a couple of occasions in the past inconclusive negotiations have been held with a view to br inging the UK into the system It seems likely that Bri tain may decide to join soon after the Channel Tunnel is completed in 1993 if the current target date is mot The other gap is Yugoslavia an omission that means that Eurailpass holders cannot travel overland to Greece from Austria Hungary or northeastern Italy Yugoslavias railways are not con sidered to be up to the general European level of efficiency The is good however for transAdriatic crossings between Brindisi Italy and Patras Greece near Delphi although there is a surcharge of about during the summer high season Strictly speaking Eurailpass holders arent required to make advance seat reservations but spokesman AJ Lazarus suggests that travellers upon arriving at a destination ought to make a reser vation for their departure or if not on arrival then no less than hours before their intended depar ture time This advice is par ticularly important for those travelling in June July and August Booking fee is about 2 ORIENT EXPRESS Even within Europe there are certain rail services that dont par ticipate in the Eurail system such as some private rail lines in Switzerland The most notable exception of all is the Venice Simplon Orient- Express a Londonbased company that operates a highstyle high- priced service between London and Venice with intermediate stops in Paris Zurich and Inn sbruck Occasionally the route is varied with Vienna temporarily replacing Venice as the eastern destination As well the company runs several day trips from Lon don to historic or scenic points of interest in England The presentday Orient Express service was launched in 1982 after the company sought out and painstakingly restored old but handsome sleepers Pullmans and restaurant cars Emphasis is on plush beautiful interiors elegant service and haute cuisine passengers are expected to wear formal attire to the dining car in the evening Prices are unashamedly astronomical the oneway journey from London to Venice costing US or about 50 per cent more than the most expensive three- month Eurailpass although the Orient Express fare does include meals In an interview during his recent visit to Canada chief executive John J conceded that there is almost no repeat business on the Orient Express Its a inaIifetime experience he said reserved by most travellers for such special occasions as honey moons and significant anniver- BRITISH The train carries a maximum of 166 passengers typically with per cent of them British and per cent North American Some per cent take the entire 32hour 1700km trip between London and Venice travelling by air in the other direction The other per cent come aboard certain sectors such as London- Folkestone on the English Chan nel or ParisZurich It would be difficult to justify the Orient Express fares on any pure ly economical basis but Britain according to Dutchborn Montrealeducated is a nation of train buffs Literary buffs must be a factor too so often has the Orient Ex press been used as a setting for stories of adventure and crime
