So myself and three other friends are starting our trip in Europe in Brussels on next week and we are wondering if we can make all our train reservations from there. We plan on taking night and high speed trains in France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Netherlands.

A friend of ours is going to be joining us in Italy and continuing with use for the remainder of the journey. Can we go ahead and make her reservations as well when we arrive? Do we need her rail pass or any information relating to it? Do we need her passport number or anything? Obviously we will have to pay for her when we book our reservations?

Hi.
You should get all reservations at Bruxelles-Midi. As much as I know there is a service fee (payable once for all reservations you do).
It is usually no problem to get the reservations for your friend who joins in Italy already in Bruxelles - and of course you have to pay for it.
We have even one railcc working at Bruxelles station if I am right, I will send you his username by mail. :)
Have fun on your trip, Peter :)

Hi guys.
If you have Eurrail or interrail pass, no fee is to be paid in Brussels. Reservations for highspeed and night trains are required as you probably know. Except for Switserland, we can make all reservations needed. Feel free to send me your itinerary, I'll check the possibility for Switserland at our special products department.
Any station is Brussels can make these tickets.

Let me know if you want TGV reservations in France, I will check if eurrail reservations are still available, because these trains are very busy!

if eurrail reservations are not available anymore, you will have to pay full price for that particular train, or find another train, or another route.
