Here's today's #CrossBorderRail music track

Funkasin street band
České Budějovice Buskers fest

This is just suitably funny, and you can see the crowd is having a laugh in the video!

However... Ding-ding-dong-dinnnng!

As Praha Hlavní nádraží is right next to where I am staying 😀

Here's where I am going later https://openrailwaymap.org/?style=maxspeed&lat=48.432389796908886&lon=14.522552490234375&zoom=10

Look at the low speeds! But you cannot do much better given how curvy the line is!

And here's today's intro video

I am off to give a speech. More later on the thread!

Agh 😡

Listening to a presentation from the public transport National Access Point of Slovenia here in Prague

https://simo.si is a nice tool, but trains that *start in Slovenia* and cross the border... cannot be found

FFS

#CrossBorderRail

I ask the speaker why I cannot find Spielfeld Strass in his tool (the first station in Austria served by Slovenian trains)

We cannot get the data on that from SŽ Potniški promet he says 😡

It's a state enterprise not giving data to a state National Access Point

This is *maddening*

The contrast between European Cyclists' Federation event in Gdanśk and this event in Praha is so stark

To perhaps a too extreme extent, the ECF people *are* cyclists, and work on cycling - they're users, they're intrinsically motivated

None of these people from ministries or running National Access Points seem intrinsically motivated, there is no spark, no energy at all here
