On the radio today they were talking of fares of, IIRC, 59 euros!
At the moment there's a problem in the tunnel 'cos the trains are too short to span the emergency exits to the access tunnel.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Like the idea but will need better onward connection. Still takes 4 trains and about 7 hours to get from Frankfurt to say Kitzbuhel.

If it was direct to Munich via Frankfurt, then it'd be handy.
Frankfurt to Alps is many changes, but if you look really hard you might be able to find one combination that is 1-2 changes from Frankfurt to ski resort. (Frankfurt-Zurich-St.Anton maybe?, or Frankfurt-Munich-Jenbach-Zillertal, or there's the night train from Berlin to ski resorts that goes via frankfurt, but tbh, you may as well fly to Zurich, Innsbruck, Salzburg, Munich anyway).

Oh, regarding connections, I did manage to find 1 train direct from Frankfurt to Alps, but it takes ages.
Frankfurt Hbf, Darmstadt, many stations en route via Munich, Salzburg, Radstadt, Schladming, ... eventually ending up in Graz.
But ICE from Frankfurt-London would be handy for me. Can blag a lift from/to Ebbsfleet (a place that doesn't really exist) and get to the parents place in about 4 hours or so.

This would be a God-send, although slightly too late to provide easy and comfortable access to Frankfurt for when my brother lived out there. altis, are they really saying this would be available for €59? This at a time when my Northern Rail 80-mile fare is about to be subject to a 10% fare increase if the "inflation + 1%" rule is scrapped...making that journey almost £35.
