That would be nice were it not for the fact that there is no such
thing as a "eurorail". There used to be a Europass, but its' gone now.
There are Eurailpasses, of course.

I don't think I'd want to buy a pass from an outfit that didn't know
that.

I guess the travel agency (one of many in North America who specialise in
European Rail passes) literally grabbed the domain name as it was
available and sounded reasonably appropriate. For all we know it could be
a one man band agency operating from home. As you say the name doesn't
inspire much confidence...
