Which trains can be night trains? And how do night trains work?

Thanks so much!! I am going with my two younger brothers and have never been to Europe (just asia and india)SPAIN AND FRANCE. Eurorail Trains? Night Trains?
you do realize that "Eurorail" refers to a TICKET, not to the train company...right? That your Eurail pass gets you onto most of the trains throughout Europe, and that every country has their own train service...right? SNCF...RENFE...ETC.



If you want to know the scheduling optinos, and what cars are on each train, try checking the Raileurope site...You'll need to choose an actual DESTINATION in the Basque country...I would suggest Donostia, Bilbao, Pamplona, something like that. The overnight trains generally require you to buy a berth, and I don't think they allow you to take a room private, without paying for all the beds in them...



Other than that...looks like a nice itinerary...In Madrid...be sure to go to La Mallorquina in Puerta del Sol for sweets, in Sevilla, La Campana (North end of c/Sierpes...have a Trufa for me...and a cup of caf茅 con leche...Yummmm!) Almost any place is good for tapas. Don't eat in the Plaza Mayor in Madrid, unless you realize you are paying a premium for the atmosphere...not tremendously cheap. In Barcelona...eat tons of seafood!



And check online for when the museums have free entry...The Prado is free on Saturday PM and Sunday. You麓ll stand in line.



carry water bottles.



*edit* Why are you asking other askers about night trains and saying that you have no information, when you have two perfectly competent answers right here, that have been here since long before that person posted her question?



Night trains must be paid for...there aren't all that many of them in such a small area, because most of the runs are less than eight hours.



Go to the direct websites of the train companies, or, as I suggested, earlier, go to the raileurope site.SPAIN AND FRANCE. Eurorail Trains? Night Trains?
Well, Tren hotels as they call them work on the assumption that you are travelling long distances, such as Paris - Madrid, not stopping every few hundred kilometres to see the country..

I'm uncertain what you mean by the Basque country as that is in France and Spain.

Why not split your journey and stay in hotels on your proposed route and travel on the normal train, it would make sense.
