So I wondered... as #LongestTrainEU is now amazingly ahead of schedule, could I get *further* than Genève tonight
How about a, say, 19:00 TGV Strasbourg - Lyon
Ah no
The last train between France's 8th and 2nd cities goes at... 16:15 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Going to Genève makes pretty much no sense, geographically, but the Swiss do actually like running trains. The French, not so much!

@jon This looks like the DB search page?

Here's the #LongestTrainEU music track for København – Hamburg
Found thanks to this post:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQfeggpU3vqAAnd my thread is up to date, just before Kolding
@jon I *love* that VLTJ somehow landed on your list.
I practically grew with that song, but it's also such a remote and obscure train line in Jutland.

@jon I studied in Strasbourg while my family lived near Lyon and did this train journey many times to go home for a holiday, but never bothered with the weekend as there was never a good train to make it work on a Friday night.

@lobingera Yep. Why would I use the SNCF Connect shitshow?

@jon ... in germany we learned, that all solutions outside of DB are better ...

@jon this is why I went via Switzerland on my way back from Barcelona. I cannot get my head round what SNCF call a timetable.

@lobingera @jon at least DB attempt to run trains at useful times. SNCF just deletes them from the schedule at first difficulty. If they even made it onto a schedule.
