Nachtzug Buchungsgeräusche 🚂💤

#nachtzug #euronight #máv

Leaving the hustle and bustle of a city. Boarding a train from their downtown railway station at dusk, and immersing into the cosy atmosphere of a sleeping car cabin: one of the many things that make night train travel incomparable to other means of transport, in my opinion at least. #ÖBB #Nightjet #EuroNight #465/40465 leaving #Zurich🇨🇭HB is my home for the night.
Today’s post is a “would have” one. Today, 15 April 2026, would have been the first day of operation of the #Basel🇨🇭#Malmö 🇸🇪 #EuroNight #472, stopping, en route, at various stations in #Germany 🇩🇪 and #Denmark 🇩🇰, and operated by #BTE #BahnTouristikExpress.
Lacking government funding, the operation of this train was eventually cancelled. (And, a few weeks ago, I got a refund for the ticket I bought.)
A shoutout to all who really tried hard to get this train running!

My Europe trip is real; I just booked my first internal-to-the-trip ticket! (Couchette for the win!)

Now to figure out what to do at 5a in Innsbruck...

(May to June research trip, with funding in hand, it's lovely to plan instead of just dream!)

All aboard the SJ #EuroNight from Berlin to Stockholm, which departed its first station 40 minutes late.
Annoying to sit on a cold Hbf platform for in total an hour, but unlikely actually to affect arrival in Stockholm.
More unfortunate was the emergency brake activation that stopped the train within a minute of it rolling out. Soon under way again, though.

#PKP #EuroNight from #Przemysl and #Warszawa entering #München Ost this morning on another platform than the one it was supposed to be on.

Slog mig ner på SJ-loungen i Gbg just som dagens EuroNight mot Berlin backade in på sin perrong. Tyska nattågsvagnar - inte en helt vanlig syn på västkusten. #tågtut #EuroNight
#Milano 🇮🇹 Centrale, one December morning in 2007: #Trenhotel #Talgo #Euronight “Salvador Dalí”, from #Barcelona 🇪🇸, has just arrived, hauled by a #Trenitalia #FS Class E.656 #Caimano electric. The train is visible on the left. On the adjacent track, we see the nose of a Class E.444R #Tartaruga.
