This is the nastiest train so far on #LongestTrainEU

It's fast (180km/h on the new line south of Umeå built for 250km/h) and seats comfy, but the doors are not pressure resistant and suspension has this sort of sideways rocking motion that makes me a bit queasy

Why is this only called #dotwatching in #bicycle races?
This week I dotwatch Ocean race Atlantic and #LongestTrainEU
https://www.theoceanrace.com/en/atlantic/2026/tracker
https://longestjourneylive.crossborderrail.eu/

It worked! They switched train units in Boden, so I don’t even have to leave the train I was on. #LongestTrainEU continues towards Umeå! 🥳

Suspense! #LongestTrainEU #CrossBorderRail

The train to Haparanda is scheduled to leave Luleå in 30 minutes, to Haparanda.

Will it go? 🤔

All being well I should *finally* get away from Haparanda tomorrow morning at 07:40 CEST!

Danke für den Beitrag! Hoffentlich geht es morgen weiter! 😂 #LongestTrainEU

Day #2 of @jon's #longestTrainEU, and already some challenges and rescheduling.
