i'll try to figure it out from the website too, but maybe some people here know by heart.

For 39c3 i need to get from my hometown to hamburg (and at a later day, the reverse).

Checking https://www.b-europe.com i see different options for different prices. this indicates to me that if i buy tickets for one trip, i can't simply switch trains (eg because of delay, me not getting to the station in time...). the total price to and from hamburg will be over €200.

But this interrail pass exists: https://www.interrail.eu/en/interrail-passes/global-pass#4-days

so conclusions and questions;
- it costs €212, less than if i'd buy the tickets separate.
- do i need reservations, or can i just take the train when it fits me best at the time?
- it's for every train, so does that mean if i miss a train, i can simply hop onto a next option, even if it's a different train?
- I see that for travel inside the country, "You can use your Interrail Global Pass for one outbound and one inbound journey to/from your country of residence (this means you can travel to the exit or entry station, port, or airport)". Do I understand correctly then that i can hop onto the train in my home town, take the "normal" (ie national) train to brussels, and then hop onto the international train, all with the same pass?

this really seems like a very good deal wth o.o
