Although to be fair this Spanish Youtuber went all the way from Portugal to Singapore by train, and started in the wrong place 😀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=kB0C...

Background and explanation why if it is Singapore it is Cascais not Lagos jonworth.eu/the-longest-...

"Awesome journey - but I think Narvik to Lagos will be a longer journey than the one shown"

Well you did not think or research very much did you! And do you really think I went to all that effort and had not checked that? 😄

FINALLY we have the right version of the Kemijärvi 🇫🇮 - Lagos 🇵🇹 #LongestTrainEU film up on Youtube! 😀

Watch me battle my way past cancellations, delays, and have good luck at Badajoz 🇪🇸

The record is: 125 hours, 31 mins

Who wants to have a go at doing it faster? 🤔

That @fintelmann.bsky.social from @eurcorrespond.bsky.social is here at #EUinfluencer is interesting. Their piece about my #LongestTrainEU received more follow up than any other media about this project https://europeancorrespondent.com/en/r/from-finland-to-portugal-by-train-in-just-125-hours

From Finland to Portugal by train in just 125 hours.

Last week, Jon Worth, a railway activist who advocates for better cross-border train travel across Europe, completed the longest train journey in the EU – from Kemijär…

Friday last week, on #LongestTrainEU

Tired, 5am start in Genève, I disembark a TER train at Lyon Part Dieu and change onto a TGV to Valence TGV, and change there onto another TGV to Perpignan

On that latter one I realise I left the bag behind somewhere. But where?

Hey @jonworth.eu - I guess the delays in Finland / Sweden could have been even worse than what you experienced…

If you want to follow the whole #LongestTrainEU thread and journey, @jonworth.eu has put it all together here (the BlueSky thread broke but can be found by searching that hashtag).

This is a #LongestTrainEU thread of the thread 😄

Apparently trying to work out what happened, when, in the huge thread is a mess

So this should help!

Search the tag #LongestTrainEU - then you find it all! The thread carried on

As I’ve been asked about it a few times, YES there will be a video on YouTube about #LongestTrainEU

@ourmaninberlin.bsky.social was filming the whole thing

But getting the huge files to the channel’s editor has been tricky while travelling

All being well it’ll be out Friday

No rest here. Off goes @ourmaninberlin.bsky.social to Faro, and I’m changing in Tunes and trying to get to Pocinho today. The 24h delay to #LongestTrainEU makes my #CrossBorderRail the next few days quite complicated!

Der Laie wundert sich, der Profi nickt wissend.

Der Rekordversuch auf der längsten Zugstrecke Europas ist vorbei. Probleme machte nicht etwa die Deutsche Bahn, sondern Schweden, Spanien und Portugal.
