Peter und der flow will answer more.
BUT-of course they are VERY reliable. BUT; they wont show up in the online travelplanners, as there are too many changes and too many other things-they are SPECIALLY made for InterRail users-like is also clearly stated in the headings-to avoid having to shell out extra for trains with supplements/seatreservations and all other kinds of tricks of state-burocrazy railwaysystems to get even more money out of YOUR pocket. Thats also why it will take loads longer. You CAN find them on travelplanners from countries concerned by putting the stages in. Maybe it may even give you some hint to not do that oso boring like anyone does going only capital to capital and discover maybe some real piece of Europe/the continent.

Hi.
Nltrainer already explained it...
These are special hand made routes for Interrailers for which we spent a lot of time to create them. Often you won't find them in electronic schedule planers (or have to know how to use them), as these are only stupid machines.
If you prefer thrusting stupid machines instead of connections made by hand to help you saving your money, then do it and pay for it. If you travel Paris to Amsterdam for example with the given connection by Thalys train, you pay extra EUR 39. If you use a hand made route by railcc, it is slower (of course as we have to avoid the high-speed-trains) but you save a lot of money - as it is FREE. :)
That's also one reason why we ask the users of railcc to support the project with ticket purchases via the railcc partner links [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux] . railcc helps to save your money, but we also need the support of you, the user to continue all the work we offer for free. Thank you! :)
It is always possible to check schedules at the live schedule planer: [ux]http://plan.rail.cc[/ux]
