And #LongestTrainEU is in Politiken today politiken.dk/rejser/togre... Just a few hours after running around Kbh H with their photographer 😄

And I am on a Siemens built ICE4 (enough of the rattling and broken toilet Talgo shit, and the shaky Alstom shit) and it is perfect. Quiet, smooth, comfortable. This is how this trip *should* be! #LongestTrainEU

Having fun filming #LongestTrainEU with @jonworth.eu

So @ourmaninberlin.bsky.social (the cameraman following me) and I were still smiling at Padborg! Thanks my friend Pepijn for the pic! #LongestTrainEU

A lot of people following #LongestTrainEU or #CrossBorderRail might also enjoy #TravellingTurtle's similar but different journey from one end of #Shengen to the other by surface public transport. His videos are really good.

Hamburg, only +7 amazingly. So the next leg of #LongestTrainEU will go to MANNHEIM on ICE 771

This means destination GENÈVE tonight is still possible for now! 🎉

I have had some luck, finally, on #LongestTrainEU
- bomb 💣 yesterday in Hamburg, now cleared
- some accident at Norrköping in the night, but my train was through there before it happened
- I am on the 08:22 Kbh - Hamburg, and the one behind is cancelled (thanks @kristianaas.bsky.social for the info)

Next leg of #LongestTrainEU is on

Don’t ask about the data. I need coffee first!

This morning #LongestTrainEU #CrossBorderRail is looking tricky

Crawling out of Helsingborg, +10…

From passengers swearing at me in French via tight connections, meeting rail firm CEOs, cab rides & an unfounded fear of bomb defusing problems tomorrow, it’s been quite a day for #LongestTrainEU #CrossBorderRail !

Here’s today’s summary
