Luggage packed, first #CrossBorderRail train caught : I'm leaving for three weeks of train travels today ; connecting the FOSDEM in Belgium via the Baltics, Kamchatka, Kazakhstan and China with the FOSSASIA in Thailand. My first destination will be 🇸🇮 #Ljubljana due to a business trip.

I gladly caught the last  🤝🏽    RB52 / C38 on #Bienwaldbahn since the later ones are canceled.

Outfit : the #CrossBorderRail shirts from @jon !

@Lenaneko I need your cargo train advice : for my model railroad, I want one authentic, French cargo train. I have an Alstom Prima Diesel BB (4)75000 in SNCF Fret livery. I additionally have one 50' 6" "Ukraine Peace" Box Car. Can you propose me how to compose an n-gauge cargo train with a somewhat realistic composition ? Bonus if it every ran on #Bienwaldbahn .

Anyone else invited to suggest carriages as well ! #FollowerPower
