Braid in trains 
- solidarity with 
railway network and for me thereby counts as railway link for my aim to use as much railway as possible.)(I mean, sure, as an experienced #AzadiBus traveler I could just drive around the lake but I'd love to stick to the ferry since it's integrated into the railway network and for me thereby counts as railway link for my aim to use as much railway as possible.)

After some waiting time due to construction work on the ๐ง๐ฌ๐ท๐ด Friendship Bridge, my #AzadiBus reached ๐ท๐ด #Giurgiu. The railway tracks on the bridge still look as misplaced as always, considering how there's only one #CrossBorderRail train pair per day, the probably even *are* misplaced. #AzadiRail

#AzadiRail day #16, homebound day #6 : From ๐ง๐ฌ #ะ ััะต / #Ruse, a small mini bus ๐ will bring me to ๐ท๐ด #Bucuresti. The bus is packed but the #AzadiBus trip will only take 2 hours.
After that the YHT arrived one hour delayed in ๐น๐ท #Istanbul, I missed my booked bus as well. A quick rebooking and after tasty Pide for dinner, here I am, waiting for my #AzadiBus to ๐น๐ท #Kapikule to leave. So far, everything that could go wrong today went wrong. #AzadiRail

So far, everything that could go wrong today went wrong. #AzadiRailNext train for my #AzadiRail trip : the comfortable class HT80000 Velaro from ๐น๐ท #Ankara to ๐น๐ท #Istanbul.
I got the last available seat in the train, a luxury first class compartment seat, similar to the business class in first generation 
trains.
This YHT comes from ๐น๐ท #Sivas, where I've been at around 2 a.m. in my #GรผneyEkspresi . For the ne?t four hours, this means some relaxing time before boarding my #AzadiBus to ๐น๐ท #Kapikule tonight.
Anyways, Obilet for help : My alternative #AzadiRail plan is now to take some later YHT from ๐น๐ท #Ankara to ๐น๐ท #Istanbul, from there on take one more #AzadiBus to ๐น๐ท #Kapikule and hopefully catch my night train to ๐ง๐ฌ #ะกะพััั / #Sofia there at 2 a.m. ๐๐ซฃ.
What an asshole at the ticket check.
4.45 a.m., #รlih / ๐น๐ท Batman. My #AzadiBus destination for today. Delay of 6 hours. #AzadiRail
