- Der European Rail Timetable (auch bekannt als rail bible, zu deutsch Eisenbahnbibel) ist ein Kursbuch, das alle wichtigen nationalen und internationalen Eisenbahnverbindungen innerhalb von Europa darstellt. Ursprünglich als Cook’s Continental Time Tables bezeichnet, wurde er erstmals 1873 von Thomas Cook and Son veröffentlicht. Nach der Übernahme durch die Thomas Cook Group wurde der Fahrplan durchgehend (mit Ausnahme Periode 1938–1946 wegen des Zweiten Weltkriegs) bis August 2013 vertrieben, anschließend aber mitsamt allen anderen Druckpublikation der Thomas Cook Group abgesetzt. Seit März 2014 wird der Fahrplan von einer privaten European Rail Timetable Ltd und den letzten Thomas-Cook-Fahrplanredakteuren wieder publiziert. (de)
- The European Rail Timetable, more commonly known by its former names, the Thomas Cook European Timetable, the Thomas Cook Continental Timetable or simply Cook's Timetable, is an international timetable of selected passenger rail schedules for every country in Europe, along with a small amount of such content from areas outside Europe. It also includes regularly scheduled passenger shipping services and a few Coach services on routes where rail services are not operated. Except during World War II and a six-month period in 2013–14, it has been in continuous publication since 1873. Until 2013 it was published by Thomas Cook Publishing, in the United Kingdom, and since 1883 has been issued monthly. The longstanding inclusion of "Continental" in the title reflected the fact that coverage was, for many years, mostly limited to continental Europe. Information on rail services in Great Britain was limited to only about 30 pages (out of about 400-plus pages) until 1954 and then omitted entirely until 1970. June 2011 marked the 1500th edition. Although minor changes to the publication's title have been made over the years, every version included "Continental", rather than "European", from 1873 through 1987 — except for a brief period (1977–1980) when the coverage was expanded to worldwide and the name became the Thomas Cook International Timetable. From 1981, most non-European content was moved into a new publication named the Thomas Cook Overseas Timetable. "Rail" was added to the title only relatively recently, in 2005, making it the Thomas Cook European Rail Timetable, but its coverage continued to include some non-rail content, such as passenger shipping and ferry timetables. The Timetable has been recommended by several editors of travel guide books for Europe, one of whom described it as "the most revered and accurate railway reference in existence". In 2013, Thomas Cook discontinued publication of the Timetable, in accordance with a decision to close the company's publishing business altogether, and the final Thomas Cook edition was published in August 2013, ending a 140-year run. However, within a few months a new company was formed to take over publication of the Timetable, having secured permission and legal rights from Thomas Cook Group to do so. The new, independent company was named European Rail Timetable Limited. The first issue compiled by the new company was published in March 2014, with the publication title now being European Rail Timetable, no longer including "Thomas Cook" in the name. In 2016, digital editions were introduced, and the number of printed editions per year was reduced from 12 to 6, but with digital issues thereafter being published monthly. In September 2019, Thomas Cook collapsed. The Timetable was unaffected as they no longer published it. (en)
