Just seen that you can use your Interrail pass on the S Bahn. How do you go about this? Do you just show it at the 'desk'? And there you go free travel?

Cheers!

Hi.
Which S-Bahn you are talking about exactly?
S-Bahn served by DB is valid for Interrailers. Just enter the train and sit down.

there is no desk-for normal people just machines selling tickets, it is just a name for a type of train (frequent, many stops, urban area) and they also have them in Austria and in Swiss.

I was on about the S Bahn in Berlin. Having never been there I don't know how it works - I was presuming it was like the underground in London were you have to have a ticket to get through the barriers? But I guess not at you just hop on the train and a ticket collecter comes through?

There are no barriers for S-Bahn in Berlin.
S-Bahn lines (S1,...) are operated by DB and are included in InterRail.
U-Bahn lines (U1,... = subway) are operated by BVG and are not included in InterRail.
