Or worse, you can still buy the ticket, but it's not valid for any trains actually in service. This stuff is really non-obvious. For example, train operators can license certain Deutsche Bahn trademarks without accepting Deutsche Bahn tickets.
- danhor 3y agoWhere? As far as I know, all the Deutsche Bahn Tickets for regional traffic use the Deutschlandtarif, which is accepted in all "normal" (excluding heritage trains and the likes) regional trains in all of Germany.
- Pamar 3y agoIs the Metronom (Hamburg-Bremen) covered by the 49€ ticket, too?
- MrJohz 3y agoA quick Google seems to suggest that that's the case, and their website is advertising ways to buy the Deutschlandticket pretty clearly.
- fweimer 3y agoThe example I had in mind was for an S-Bahn in Karlsruhe (operated by AVG, using the S-Bahn trademark under license, but otherwise unaffiliated with Deutsche Bahn) which was considered a tram, not a regular regional train while it traveled within city limits. This meant that DB tickets weren't necessarily valid, and AVG claimed as much. I expect AVG recognizes the bw tarif under which DB sells train tickets, so this probably is no longer an issue.
