Rather than start a new thread I thought I would just add to this one as it already seems to have a lot of useful information.

Me and my wife are going to be taking the train from Frankfurt airport to the Zurich airport (we are arriving in FRA via air and are staying near the ZRH airport). We will be taking an ICE train from FRA to Manheim HBF then ICE train from Manheim HBF to Zurich HB and a IC train from Zurich HB to Zurich Flughafen. We plan on purchasing the Sparpreis 50D rate in first class.

1. Is there someplace on the english section of the site to give me the fare rules for this fare? I am curious if we can change the ticke should our flight arrive early etc or if we are stuck taking those specific train times....also worried about a delayed arrival and possibility of losing the value of the tickets. I see a Sparpreis 25D as well and assume it has less restrictions but cant figure out how to tell.

2. What is the luggage situation on those trains? We will not have a lot, two laptop bags and one medium sized wheeled luggage bag.

Thanks to anyone that has any info.
