Here’s today’s #CrossBorderRail summary video. I don’t think I can draw deeper conclusions from today yet. But it was a good day. And now I’m knackered. peertube.netzbegruenung.de/w/keDExR7uqFm58ocRrQkJtZ
Hey #BahnBubble - I'm considering a trip from Saarbrücken Hbf to Metz and then onwards. DBNav is suggesting a 14:16 RE18 with a 7 minute transfer at Forbach. How realistic is that?

Today has been manic
The special trains Dillingen 🇩🇪 - Bouzonville 🇫🇷 for the Good Friday market in Bouzonville were all packed, the capacity inadequate. The market was packed too
I'm still not sure the line works for everyday #CrossBorderRail traffic, but everyone was having a blast

Today has been manic. Will post more later. For now a few more pics. #CrossBorderRail
Om sommeren var det forbindelse inn i Sverige, for da gikk det nattog mellom Storlien og Stockholm, og det kjørte så raskt at det tok igjen morgentoget et eller annet sted langt inne i Sverige. Og enda bedre, om sommeren hadde dette togparet en gjennomgående sovevogn mellom Trondheim og Stockholm to dager i uka.

Ende der Strecke in Bad Radkersburg
Karte der Bahnhöfe Radkersburg und Gornja Radgona
Am Bahnhof endet die Strecke auch. Vor langer Zeit war sie mal Grenzüberschreitend. Ich wäre gerne mit dem Rad nach Gornja Radgona rübergefahren und hätte den Zug von dort weiter genommen, aber in Slowenien fährt leider gar nichts.

Ticket check in the #CrossBorderRail TGV to Saarbrücken, friendly SNCF train manager.
"How" - he asks me in French - "did you even get this Interrail reservation? Many passengers on this train have the wrong reservation"
For some reason today I have a SNCF one I booked with Rail Europe […]
@interrailinfosvenska there are 2 Frecciarossa a day not included in Interrail. So 5 a day. No regional trains. Due to the voltage change you’d have to extend a Torino-Bardonecchia regional to Modane. Eminently doable, but given there’s no political will it’s not done. Welcome to […]
And then get to Gare de l’Est and train departure is delayed. But rather than explain that or apologise for that, they’re busy making announcements about lost luggage. Priorities, eh! #CrossBorderRail
Why are there no regional trains between Modane (FR) and Susa (IT)? There are only 3 high speed trains per day in each directions.
is it just SNCF's usual "Do Not Want!"?
A Swedish travel magazine just claimed there are "countless" direct trains (in […]
