@jonworth.euDamn I am tired of people laughing about Deutsche Bahn.
Travel in many other places in Europe and you will discover Germany is trying to do many things right with its railways. A quick blog post / rant from me:

#CrossBorderRail
@jonworth.euToday’s #CrossBorderRail: Kędzierzyn-Koźle - Leipzig - Frankfurt - Bruxelles. Just been subjected to an illegal non #Schengen compliant control entering 🇩🇪
In Bruxelles I’m going to #ConnectingEuropeDays, a big @ec.europa.eu event about transport
How many other attendees were subjected to the same?
@sebastian.mastodon.cc.ap.brid.gySo it is possible to get from #Berlin to #Copenhagen on time ... On a #czech train - České dráhy
@vermeer.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyIn Poznan I at least found some deli for some refreshments before I went into the 9h31 IC to Berlin. Weirdly enough this #CrossBorderRail had worse AirCon than my IC to Poznan. I escaped to the @diningcar and went for some Pierogi - they were delicious! Also the […]
@vermeer.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyOkay here goes my little #SeagullWarPierogiPretzel #CrossBorderRail thread. I started yesterday in very rainy Riga with a 13h Bus trip with the 17h30 Warsaw bus. Luxexpress Buses are indeed very nice, but I made the mistake to forget my neckpillow. You can […]
@smveerman.zug.network.ap.brid.gyA ship collided with the railway bridge between Weener and Leer yesterday. After inspection it seems to only have caused minor damage. #CrossBorderRail
@jonworth.euToday has been an amazing #CrossBorderRail day
Not sure Uzhhorod 🇺🇦 - Maťovské Vojkovce 🇸🇰 is good for passenger trains (it’s freight only)
But I had a fun day working that out, cycling in eastern Slovakia. Tyre punctures couldn’t deter me! 😀

@alberto-cottica.mastodon.green.ap.brid.gyI just applied for membership with @erpu . Way to go, @jon and everyone else!
@pglux.bsky.socialSure 😃.
When were you last in Ravières ? 3 weeks ago?
Do you feel more tired than at the end of some long #CrossBorderRail with some long 🚲rides?
@jonworth.euThe film of #LongestTrainEU is now on Youtube!

@lewd.zug.network.ap.brid.gyThe moment when you show 7 different tickets to the confused :db: Regio conductor in the SÜWEX 😅 !

@lewd.zug.network.ap.brid.gyWe have been :lux_rgtr: RGTRed 😵💫.
@wrzlbrnft.bsky.social#SBB beschliesst den Kauf von 21 Hochgeschwindigkeitszügen mit Optionen auf 20 weitere Fahrzeuge. Die Ausschreibung soll im Frühjahr 2027 erfolgen. Die bisher geplante Strategie, Fahrzeuge zu leasen statt zu kaufen, wird hingegen nicht weiterverfolgt.
@martinjordan.com17 hours after leaving Berlin, I’ve reached my destination, Edinburgh Waverley.
My biological clock is already 1 hour later.
So I’m just gonna crash.
Choosing #CrossBorderRail over an aeroplane reduced my CO2 emissions by about 3/4.
@martinjordan.comSwiftly over to King’s Cross station for the last regular train up to Edinburgh.
I missed my original LNER connection and had to purchase a new LUMO train ticket for another £35.
The last leg of the #CrossBorderRail journey tonight takes a bit over 4 hours to Waverley station.
