Hey. Need a bit of help.

Could someone tell me if it's possible to still board the CNL train even if we don't have a reservation for seat or couchette because I think that the train is pretty much full.

Trying to get from Dresden to Offenburg on the evening of the 25th of April.

Hi,

the mentioned train (CNL 458 on 25th April) seems to be fully booked. You could enter the train, but it is most likely that the conductor makes you leave the train as soon as they control tickets - there is no entitlement of carriage if you dont have a reservation in addition to your ticket.

You could use this alternative connection, no reservation required:

Dresden 1954 - 2105 Leipzig
Leipzig 2114 - 0104 Frankfurt
Frankfurt 0222 - 0421 Offenburg

Or go via Berlin:

Dresden 2054 - 2322 Berlin Ostbahnhof
:arr: go to Berlin Hauptbahnhof with frequent S-Bahn/RE services
Berlin Hauptbahnhof 0030 - 0642 Frankfurt
Frankfurt 0650 - 0827 Offenburg
