I'd suggest trying again in a few weeks, once the rest of the January-June trains have been announced + loaded into the various booking systems
This is good to know, thanks. Is it really standardized across all countries? Aren't the rail operators different by country? When would things for late summer (Sept.) come online?
Doing a bunch of side research and searching across the web, it seems that quite a number of threads have been born with "I want to go from Budapest to Krakow" and have gone to their graves unresolved. Seems to be one of the intractable problems of mankind.
