🎉 Some important #CrossBorderRail news! 🎉

After thinking about the idea for more than a decade (yeah, this is later than a DB train!) I am finally starting to plan building a railway organisation for lobbying work, and @patrick @partim & @redjives are in from the start. We're sort of soft launching today

@jon @patrick @partim @redjives great idea. Isn’t it better though, that when you start handling money, to sign up locally as an organisation to formalise things with a treasurer, chair and secretary? As a Dutch person I don’t mind where it would be based (Liechtenstein, Estonia, wherever there are trains :) ), it would just give a little bit more sense of trust when I donate.

@Anneke @jon Yes, that is our plan. We’re not quite certain whether Belgium, France, Germany or the Netherlands (amongst other options) are the best for us to incorporate. That is one of the reasons we don’t want any money (yet). But we’ve reached the point where we need more hands to get stuff done. That’s the reason for the soft launch.

@Anneke we’ll setup an organisation indeed. That’s going to happen
