BEWARE there are major renovation works at Saarbruecken Hauptbahnhof right now. The ticket office has been relocated to the mall across the station forecourt (behind the tram stop, next to McDonalds, 2 mins walk as you leave the station). But there are plenty ticket machines, both the long-dinstance (touchscreen + credit card) and regional (buttons + cash) variety.
