Cheap Rail Fare:

Cheap Rail Fare Another rail bargain is the low-fare "Joyous Sunday" excursions to important tourist cities and resorts; and for the thrift excursions by rail and car from Namur to six Ardennes chateaux, you will recall the discussion under 7 in the Special Interests section.

In the Ardennes region the famous Chateau d'Ardennes, once among the leading castle-hotels of Europe, is at present pathetically closed and unused, but perhaps some good angel will soon revive it There are fairly good small hotels throughout the whole area. Economy Touring and Lodging While touring in Belgium is not obviously cheap rail fare, it may be very cheap rail fare indeed for hardy and thrift-minded travelers. In rail travel there is a real bargain, one to make your budget stare at the figures in doubt of its vision. For the entire network of State Railways, and it is a very intricate network, you may buy an abonnement, which may be translated as "subscription."


Economy Touring and Lodging Railway bargains are generous in Sweden and a basic bargain to keep in mind is that the greater the length of your journey the less it costs per kilometer (or per mile). Even short hauls are by no means costly, but long ones are definitely cheap rail fare. On the State-owned lines you may travel 1000 kilometers (600 miles) for a fare that is less than half the per-kilometer cost of a 100-kilometer ride.
