@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyAnd lastly the bathroom. You need to use your room keycard to open it. I didn't try the shower, bring your own towel if you plan to take one. Only small hand towels & shower carpet were provided.
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyA little overview of the amenities provided on this train. I love the graphic design! A classic breakfast with sweet or salty option in included, as well as a pair of sleepers and a soap.
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyGood morning! 👋
I woke up around Bad Schandau, where we were waiting for a while before crossing the border. The staff was clueless about it, and I also found it curious given the many tracks there. In the end we caught about 1h20 of delay, but the views […]
@burger-jaap.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyThis is a massive weakening of the 2030 and 2035 targets at a time when it should be crystal clear to anyone that the future is electric. France and Germany will need to find enough Member States for the weakening, in Parliament they’ll find the EPP, ECR etc. on their side in their quest to […]

@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@tml Maybe that explains why the Nightjet website only sold entire compartments and I had to use the CD website to find this cheaper option. Not only a matter of currency exchange and reseller's margin.
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@tml To be fair, I'm more familiar with couchettes, where (at least with Nightjet) the two options are women-only and mixed-gender.
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyHowever, the staff complained that we booked 2 beds as a mixed couple in a men compartment. Indeed there was no mixed gender option. 🤔 He let us in but said the 3rd man might complain and force us to seat instead if we want to travel together. And that we should have booked a whole double […]
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyTrying the #CdNight tonight 🚂✨
This train between Zurich and Prague is only 2 sleeping cars + 2 seating cars, no couchette option. Very pleasant interior & amenities, and no loud noise like in the Nightjet (see previous thread […]
@stefanlindbohm.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyThese visualisations of a day of trains in various countries have been going for a while, but I just saw one of Switzerland pop up on my feed.
And it got me thinking, since Switzerland has a Taktfahrplan… why not beatmatch the music to the Takt?
Please […]

@brenttoderian.bsky.socialReposted by @cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy“Results show that approximately 414 million metric tons of carbon emission could be reduced if everyone in the world cycled 1.6km every day like the Danes…This climate benefit could be increased to 686 million metric tons if the Dutch cycling pattern was followed with daily cycling of 2.6km.”

@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyHello @opentransport 👋 #OpenTransport2026
@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyCurieux choix. Même le maire LR du 8è est contre. 🤔 Espérons en tous cas que la ville aura bien son mot à dire en termes d'infrastructures vélos! @parisenselle @altis

@cycling-on-rails.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyIf you don't want these kind of pricing practices to come to railways in Europe, it's time to join the @erpu.
Not that I've seen any instance of this (nor proposal) for European trains, but better be prepared!
