I want to book 2 reserved seats on the 11:50 am trainOR 1661 on 9 October from Bucharest to Iasi in Romania. I have been unable to book these seats on either the app or the DB website. I must travel on this day to meet up with a tour group. I am currently in Poland and cannot visit a Romanian train station.

can anyone out there offer me advice please?

Reservations are only available at a Romanian ticket office, not online. You can book at any CFR ticket office anywhere in Romania. Since Romanians book quite late, it's usually not a problem to get a seat a short time in advance. You can see on the CFR website how many seats are still available, currently 26 in 1st and 208 in 2nd class.

These can’t be booked online anywhere, unfortunately. Your only option is to do it when you arrive in Romania.
