If you don’t book your bike space online prior to departure, you’ll need to pay an additional fee of €5.10.

Pets and pet carriers must not occupy seats, otherwise a full-priced ticket will be charged. Registered guide and assistance dogs are excluded from this regulation. |
What special assistance is available? | Westbahn trains have step-free access. If you travel with a wheelchair or a stroller, we recommend using coach 400 in the middle of the train.
