Anyone have any experience of travelling to Europe by train?

We saved heaps of money on the trains once. Things may have changed but in 86 the first class seats pulled out into massive beds we bought an open Eurorail first class ticket for $700 Australian. So we travelled all over from Portugal, barcellona, to Salzburg to Northern to southern Holland with every stop you can imagine and everyhere in between. monarco paris rome pizza florence germany belgium; lots of the time on night trains in first class so we didnt have to worry about being robbed in cattle class and didnt have any hotel fees at all, and we would wake up in a new place all the time.
