To better understand the differences between the West and the Middle - in this case Mittel Europe - take the train from the UK to Prague via Berlin. Spend a few days in Berlin, then get back on the train and look out the windows, and make sure you get a seat on what will be the left side of the train, the east side. The last 2+ hours go through the Elbe Valley all the way to Prague. Nice. A special with Deutsche Bahn is a return ticket from London to Berlin with the Eurostar and DB Nachtzug (the night train). It starts at about EUR 200. A return ticket from Berlin to Prague is about EUR 80 more.
