Where to buy tickets

The only company operating long-distance trains to Nuremberg is Deutsche Bahn DB.

They always cooperate with local carriers when travelling abroad. So in practice, for example, when you travel by train to Prague, you will take the same train, which you can find on the German DB and Czech ČD websites.

Similarly, when travelling to Austria, you will always find tickets for a specific connection on the ÖBB and German DB websites.

It is always worth comparing ticket prices on the websites of both carriers. Each of them may have different prices and different special offers, even though in reality you will always travel on the same train.
