Why are there no times shown on my ticket?

If your ticket doesn't display specific departure times, it's typically an "open" ticket, meaning it's valid for travel on any regular train operating between the two stations listed on the ticket. However, please note that these tickets cannot be used on trains that require mandatory seat reservations.

To ensure you're on the right track, carefully examine your ticket to see if it lacks a train number specifying a particular train you must board.
