bbtrain - Crazy Train Travels

Heute #CrossBorderRail im TGV, von #Brüssel nach #Montpellier.

Die 5 Personen in Zivilkleidung mit den roten Armbinden mit der Aufschrift "Douane", die konspirativ wie Detektive aus einem Kinderfilm durch den Zug schlichen, sahen eher aus wie Raver oder ein Paintball-Team, und nicht wie offizielle Vertreter*innen der Zollbehörde.

You'd think that two reasonably well run countries - Sweden 🇸🇪 and Finland 🇫🇮 - could manage to fix a #CrossBorderRail line in a timely fashion

But no they can't

Wherever I go these sorts of sagas seem universal

A rant about Haparanda 🇸🇪 - Tornio 🇫🇮, and some nice photos:

Cross-border railway problems are annoyingly universal

At the time of writing, my #CrossBorderRail project has taken me to 419 international railway lines since 13 June 2022. One of the very first borders I went to - on 19 June 2022 - was Haparanda 🇸🇪 - Tornio 🇫🇮 (OpenRailwayMap) at the very northern end of the Baltic Sea. Little

Heute #CrossBorderRail von #Aachen nach #Brüssel. Es scheint, als hätte die #DB für den ICE die Bauarbeiten (seit heute morgen 5 Uhr Streckensperrung) auf der Strecke zwischen Stolberg und Aachen Rothe Erde gar nicht eingeplant gehabt. 😬🙄

In for two more days of #CrossBorderRail . I had to plan last minute due to a minor injury, so it ended up being very inefficient. The main problem was that I could not find ANY seat in northbound TGVs a mere two days in advance. Colour me surprised, #SNCF.

So, day one: Burgos-Madrid Chamartin-Madrid Puerta de Atocha-Zaragoza-Avignon TGV. All with Rende.

Day two: Avignon-Paris via Flixbus, then Paris Nord - Bruxelles Midi via Eurostar.

Awful, I know. But I could not bring myself to fly.

And going via Besançon-Viotte - La Chaux-de-Fonds and a bit of Chemins de Fer du Jura 🎉 #CrossBorderRail

So I have a spare Interrail day to use before 10th June

That means #CrossBorderRail day trip Train pour Bonfol! 🇨🇭🇫🇷

Border:
Bonfol 🇨🇭 - Pfetterhouse 🇫🇷

Close enough to link to the classic song, right? 😂

Alsatien local newspaper praising gadgetbahn for a Colmar - Freiburg link rather than a real railway line. Oida, seriously ?
