Discount tickets on sale for Deutsche Bahn's 175th anniversary
German national rail provider Deutsche Bahn on Monday kicked off celebrations for the 175th anniversary of the country's first railroad with special offers for discount tickets.
The first offer is a €35 one-way, second-class ticket valid for two people anywhere within the country. Passengers can use the ticket, called the Jubiläums-Ticket, between June 1 to June 30.
Single passengers will also be allowed to travel alone with the offer, which the company said would be available until supplies sold out.
A second offer called the Jubiläums-Pass 175 Stunden, or “Anniversary 175-hour pass,” will also be for sale as of Monday. The ticket is valid for seven days and seven hours for Germany’s entire rail network. Prices range from €175 for regular passengers, while those under the age of 27 pay €145.
A third offer called simply the Jubiläums-Pass, or “Anniversary pass,” is valid for an entire month of trips for €299, or €246 for those under 27.
Both passes can also be used on night trains with additional fees and are valid between June 13 and August 31, in addition to December 7 – the day the first Adler locomotive travelled between Nuremberg and Fürth.
Pass holders will also have free entry into the Deutsche Bahn museum in Nuremberg.
