Today I saw a train I've never seen before at Luxembourg central train station. It seemed very old, with "Rheingold" written on it.
Searching online, I cannot find anything about it still running today. The route it used to operate does not pass through Luxembourg.
It seemed to be the main stop on it's way to Köln.
Does anyone know more about it? ( @jon maybe? )

Seeing some extra spicy #USPol takes on my timeline right now suggesting certain actions that "someone" should take and y'all I 100000% get it but *especially* today you NEED to watch this:

The Luxembourgish government is about to destroy a historic monument! (please boost 
)
"Wandmillen" (translating to windmills) is a historic monument located in Val Fleuri, Belair. It is currently in a bad state as it has been ignored for a while.
Luxembourg's main hospital "CHL" has been undergoing heavy construction works for some years now. Recently, articles were published that this historic site is "in the way" of the new construction works, and it would "Block the fastest route for ambulances".
It is painfully obvious that the plan was always to destroy part of Luxembourg's history, the entire area is under construction and they could easily choose to preserve this site if they gave a sh*t.
L'essentiel's latest article concludes with "Sa conservation sur place est cepandant exclue." (en: Conservation is therefore out of the question.)
I am trying to find people that like me, want to put a stop to this destruction. please boost this post to and get in contact with me if you want to help.

Please, everyone who wants to check if we have reached the threshhold of 1 million signatures (Update: we have :) on the "ban conversion therapy" initiative, use this link:
https://eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/api/report/progression
It's ugly, but it gives you the number you are looking for without putting extra load on the servers by avoiding all the pretty UI etc from being downloaded. Leave the full page to those who want to sign! Deal? :)
EU citizens, if you want in while you can, there's a EU citizen's petition for the EU to ban "conversion therapy" (this is as ominous as it sounds) of LGBTQs, with 7 days left to sign.
It will not make the threshold, but might be able to rack up a few more country thresholds— I'm happy to note Spain just hit it. Belgium and The Netherlands are the next best bets as they're over 65%; If you know queer-friendly folks in those countries, maybe a good time to forward this:

They kindly host our gitlab for 6 months now, and provide important services for more than 150 other free and open source software communities such as @alpinelinux, @chimera , @debian, @fdroidorg, @gentoo, @gnome, @LineageOS, #ReplicantOS, @torproject. Now their future is in jeopardy 😢
We usually don't ask this, but please boost for reach, this is important infrastructure for so many FLOSS projects! 
@jon they're discussing a new cross-border rail line between Luxembourg and Saarbrucken. The CFL is currently running regular busses between the two cities.
(my apologies if you already saw this)
In light of a recent motion of the Dutch parliament, keeping with the trend of internet centralisation and considering the general state of the world, we are bringing the full DNS chain to a doormat close to you.
