Welcome to the #LongestTrainEU #CrossBorderRail record breaking thread!

This video explains what is going on: https://peertube.netzbegruenung.de/w/492iv19KegdFh6hW4TNDj7
At about 1100 CEST I will likely know what will happen - if train 7184 leaves Luleå headed to Haparanda, as that turns around here and should be the 13:47 departure (train 7185) to Boden
@jon https://norrtag.se/trafiklaget/#/today lists Buddbyn as the location, which is indeed the other branch.
It also lists all today's trains from Haparanda as cancelled

@gufo Right, exactly. That's what is so hard to estimate. If someone could specify more precisely WHERE the problem is that would help a lot!
@jon 1409.se does give a more precise location: Gransjö - Sandträsk. Not that it’s very helpful on its own, unfortunately, as I don’t know where the electrical circuits begin and end. And I’m pretty sure that’s not supposed to be public, either.

No
Train cancelled
It has all broken in Haparanda
@jon Darn!

@jon Hope you get to continue on rails! Crossing fingers, holding thumbs, etc

@jon Did you see that 7184 and 7185 are now reported as cancelled on the Norttåg website?

@jon It’s not looking good - this is in the news now. Translation in alt text.

@partim yes. Trying to re-plan *again*

@jon People all over Europe watching...

@stefanlindbohm @jon Since this is a train journey record, I assume a replacement bus will fail the attempt, is this right ?
-
@jon FWIW I have an Android app on my phone named GPS Status (ad supported) that displays what satellites are in view. Right now right here, 71 satellites with 45 fixes. Up in Alaska last year, getting far fewer
@bellinghman @jon In addition to GPS and Galileo it does GLONASS & BeiDou?
-
@partim yes. Trying to re-plan *again*
@jon I think you need to assume the next train out will be the 07:40 departure tomorrow.
Norrtåg now confirms the overhead wire is torn down between Boden and the junction to Haparandabanan. Trafikverket estimates traffic resumes ”night to Wednesday”.
Shift everything 24 hours might be best if possible? If you’ll stick to the rules of no replacement bus.

@partim yes. Trying to re-plan *again*

So I could...
Change my rules, take a rail replacement bus Haparanda - Boden, anyway miss my connection in Boden, and re-plan and be on schedule by Hamburg - with some buffer
Wait for the next train, and massively re-plan, and rely on a 11 minute connection Snälltåget to Nightjet in Hamburg...
@jon I didn’t read your rules in details but I’d go for the replacement bus. You booked a train, it’s replaced by a bus then you take the bus. That’s what regular train passengers would do.

@stefanlindbohm @jon @partim Does the rule apply if the sign says "Tchoo Tchoo I'm a Train", refusing the vehicle gender identification ?
(I hope y'all know the picture I'm referring to)
🫂 Jon, I hope you'll manage to find some alternate solution to get to destination.
-
@partim yes. Trying to re-plan *again*
@jon Hope you find a decent route.
If you end up with a new uMap, let me know. We can add the current plan as a new track on the map while keeping the old.

@jon Oh gosh.. and Sweden doesn't strike me as the country who neglects railway infrastructure, there's so much more to possibly happen but I didn't expect the first hiccup that early into the adventure! This is interesting and thrilling
big hug!
