How to travel cheap around Europe via Train?

I’m planning to travel to Switzerland, Austria and Czech Rep this summer via train from UK. One of the cheapest options is to buy the Global Pass, which is only for European residents. However I’m not a European resident, which means that I need to find another cheap options to travel. Can anyone give any suggestions?
plane is cheaper than train in europe !
The global Interrail pass is for European residents. The global Eurail pass is for non-European residents.
So look at Eurail passes, but take into account that Czech Republic and the Eurostar are not part of the Eurail pass.

I personally would fly from the UK to Switzerland and from Prague to the UK. For Czech Republic I would by point-to-point tickets, for Switzerland and Austria I would compare point-to-point with national rail passes.

flying is actually cheaper then traveling by train in europe.
