Welcome to the #LongestTrainEU #CrossBorderRail record breaking thread!

@jon Good luck Jon! I’ll be watching. I apologise in advance from Sweden. Make a blood sacrifice to SJ when you can.

[eq@mas.to]

@toxy @jon Good luck and yes, apologies for the Swedish railway is probably in place. I'll be waving when you pass Umeå

[samcage@rail.chat]

@jon Sod's law dictates that when you pass through Copenhagen, I'll be in France. We will eventually coincide! And good luck - great project.

[jon@gruene.social]

@eq @toxy I have enough buffers planned in for the Swedish legs. I think

[jon@gruene.social]

Off on time from Kemijärvi, after having presented a small plaque to the city administration.

And I have a timer running the whole trip as well - from the moment the door closed at Kemijärvi to the moment it opens in Lagos!

[adipoeserpursch@troet.cafe]

@jon Good luck!

@jon Ah is this EEST? Thus 18:00 CET?

[eq@mas.to]

@jon I was sitting for 6 hours at a station but that was 10 years ago. My train neighbour was in a 12 hour stop a couple of months earlier. But I'm sure the railroads are much better now!

[jon@gruene.social]

@giggls Indeed. Start is 19:00 EEST.

[ilmari@social.treehouse.systems]

@jon Good luck! I just noticed that the live map resets the zoom every time the location updates, which is quite annoying.

[jon@gruene.social]

@ilmari Even if you have auto zoom off? (click the magnifying glass icon to turn it off)

[pikka@nerdculture.de]

@jon Viel Glück und gute Reise!

[gregoa_@chaos.social]

@ilmari looks like you can disable "auto zoom" in hamburger menu -> options. or with the button on the right near the bottom.
@jon

[ilmari@social.treehouse.systems]

@jon ah, that works. I didn't think to dig into two levels of mystery meat navigation.

[jon@gruene.social]

@ilmari it’s not a perfect system I admit. But it’s the best I could cobble together.

[rollotreadway@beige.party]

@jon Good luck! Hope none of the trains fail too badly.

[dec_hl@mastodon.social]

@jon just seeing the green stripes on the train makes me wanna go back to FI.

may your trip through DE be quick (and your reservations available, the toilets working, the train in time or running at all or not returning before the destination or all the other atrocities Deutsche Bahn has in store)...

[dzjr74@mastodon.nl]

@jon

Wishing you a very pleasant trip; I am following your adventures along the way closely.

[piiiepsbrummm@chaos.social]

@jon Best wishes for the project from Germany!

[dagger@chaos.social]

@jon Looks like a nice adventure.
Wishing you a very pleasant trip!
