Agh 😡

@samuele963 sent me the timetables for the inaugural Gorizia 🇮🇹 - Nova Gorica 🇸🇮 trains on 8 Feb

There's no sensible way to get there other than with Interrail, and that's €212 for a 4 day pass (and I need to add reservation fees, and accommodation)

And while I welcome this new #CrossBorderRail service, I can't justify that much for the launch of a train that's going to be 2x a day

In my future life when I am rich* the first thing I will do is buy myself continuous Interrail pass lasting the whole year 🙂

* - not happening

@jon Just buy four 3 months Interrail discount passes every end of November and make a crowdfunding marathon of it. 😅

@wrzlbrnft “I don't know what I am going to use this for, but there will be something, so pleasefund it!" It'll be a winner 🙂

@jon We know what we already got and we (think we) know what's your main intention. 😃

@jon But then you won’t need it any more as you can just have your assistant buy last minute full price first class tickets.

@jon First thing I'm doing is buying my own ICE 3neo, so that all my international journeys can have a top-quality comfortable train on them.

I can dream big, right?

@gravitystorm @jon Instead of a house you could have a train?

@gravitystorm @jon probably cheaper than buying a year’s worth of tickets 🤪😁
