Hi,
im wondering if you guys and girls can help me out.

I plan on traveling Europe this time next year.
Now i Know being from Australia I can't get a InterRail pass etc and i should get a eurorail ticket, but there's no handy forum there so i hope you don't mind me posting here.

but i was just wondering will it be worth getting a Eurorail Global pass.?

my current plan of travel is
AMSTERDAM—BELGIUM (Brussels) – Colonge (fly to) LONDON--PARIS-- LYON—SWITZERLAND—MUNICH(maybe)—AUSTRIA—CZECH REPUBLIC --BERLIN

Now all these countries are all ridiculously close to each other so i would imagine that the tickets would not cost too much.
But the problem is because Im planning in advance the train sites wont display information on tickets that far in advance.

So im wondering, from peoples personal experience, would it be worth getting a Eurorail Global Pass for 10 days travel in 2 months? I should be able to fit it in because i know the London--Paris ride would not be included in the 10 days of travel.
OR
Should i just get separate fares?

If this doesn't belong here, sorry in advance :P

Hi ...
Not a specialist fo Eurail, I recommend you to buy an Eurail pass ... as you will be definitely cheaper traveling these distances on a pass. Single tickets from city to city are only cheap if you order them early (it is possible up to 3 months in advance). You are then fixed on dates and times and if you miss a train: bad luck - you will then need a regular ticket.
