DSB’s Talgo coach sets for the EuroCity between Copenhagen - Hamburg are now approved! Select departures will use the new sets this autumn, and it seems regular service with the 8 delivered sets will run from the timetable change this year 🙌

@stefanlindbohm DSB nailing it as usual on English translations for international passengers! /s
In all seriousness, that's great news for #CrossBorderRail with bicycles, incidentally I just published today a page for Denmark explaining how the direct Conpehagen-Hamburg trains currently don't take bicycles* and what to do instead: https://cycling-on-rails.com/train-bicycle-guide/denmark/#germany
*Even packed as luggage with the wheels removed. I tried and got rejected by DB staff in Hamburg.
@stefanlindbohm And there will also be a few direct Copenhagen-Hamburg-Berlin-Prague trains by ČD from next spring, using the modern ComfortJet also featured in my fresh update of today: https://cycling-on-rails.com/train-bicycle-guide/czechia/#comfortjet
All in all great progress upcoming for #CrossBorderRail #CyclingOnRails!
