Off we go with a special bus (normally used for the Dutch football team) for the year’s first #interrail trip… No train in sight yet though.
After horrendous traffic, still no train in sight. Guess I’ll take this one then - probably the last time (and the first), due to Management. But maybe there’s a train where it’s going.
@patrick I had to look up where it is going – in my mind there really do seem to be only two ferry services between the Netherlands and the UK.
@partim O how I miss Vlissingen-Sheerness. ISTR even another one, but can’t find it anymore.
@patrick @partim Scheveningen <> Great Yarmouth?
@patrick @partim (I wasn’t aware of this one until I went on a #Topotijdreis on, well, https://www.topotijdreis.nl/kaart/1991/@64555,459726,5.58 . The Vlissingen <> Sheerness ferry was my first foray to the UK, back in 198mumble; I’ve taken Rotterdam <> Hull a few times to get to Scotland (yay National Express), Hoek <> Harwich many times both fast and slow, yet to take IJmuiden <> Newcastle.)
