When you travel with buses, trains or plains often or from time to time, it is important that you know the schedule. The Internet is one of the possibilities to find it. When you have a timetable, you will likely not miss any train, bus or plane ride in your life ever. So, always be a wise passenger and plan your journey in advance. Tips for planning a train journey:

* you could check for the train schedule at the websites of the train companies.

* you could check for the local train schedule at the local websites. Different local administration and transportation websites are catering train travel information.

* there are websites which display the train timetable for one particular country.

For example, in Germany it is Deutsche

* EuRail - you can get train travel information all over Europe through this website. It includes links to the websites with train schedules in different countries in Europe, such as Germany and Austria. The website also offers a train map.

If you plan a bus journey or a plane flight, you could also find out easily lots of websites with the necessary information. Each bus and plain company world wide provides detailed information about the transport on the Internet.
