How can two persons having Eurail and Interrail passes book same train and stay together?

Consider two persons: a EU citizen and an Indian coming in EU for visiting a couple of countries.

According to this page (and if I'm not missing anything), the EU citizen would have to get an Interrail pass, while the Indian person would get an Eurail pass.

An Interrail Pass can only be used by European citizens and official residents. Non-European citizens can use a Eurail Pass instead, available from Eurail.com. If you aren't a European citizen, but you can prove that you live in Europe, you can use an Interrail Pass.

Now, let's assume those two friends want to go from Paris to Berlin by train. How can they get seats in the train to stay together?

Are Eurorail and Interrail the same?

Eurail and InterRail are both rail passes, and while they are similar there is one critical difference - who can buy them. Eurail Passes are only for non-European citizens or residents. InterRail Passes are only for European citizens or residents.

Is Interrail better than Eurail?

The Eurail offers a lot more options: you can still buy a one-country pass (though InterRail is cheaper), but you can also get two-country and regional passes. So, if you want to travel in two or three countries, the Eurail might be a better option.

Can I give my Interrail pass to someone else?

You can indeed purchase the Pass for someone else. Just make sure to fill out the personal information (such as passport number) of your brother when you make the order.

Can you book train seats together?

Search for your tickets and see if there is a 'Next to...' seating preference available. If this option is available, then you can enter the assigned seat and carriage numbers of the existing reservation in your cart. If there are any nearby seats available then hopefully everyone can sit together or nearby at least.
