Time for the long trek home!

Guess I’ll be on this bench for the next two hours.
Train from Apeldoorn to Osnabrück is now so delayed I can’t make my alternate train to Hamburg. Found another alternate train to Hamburg which should still let me catch the last direct train to Copenhagen (getting me there at midnight) - but I’m now down to a 30min connection time in Hamburg, so fingers crossed.
If I miss my connection in Hamburg I will be in Copenhagen around 4:30am… and I have work tomorrow at 8:30am.
Crossing fingers!

Time for the long trek home! 5 trains and two border crossings ahead of me.
First train: a Sprinter from Dordrecht (NL) to Den Haag (NL) (on a separate ticket as I had originally planned to stay in Den Haag), then onto Hengelo (NL), Osnabrück (DE), Hamburg (DE) and finally Copenhagen (DK).
Feel free to mute me for the next 24h if you’re not interested in my #CrossBorderRail journey
I will start a new sub-thread under this post for each train change
This? This is a Danish train. Going to Copenhagen.
I made it! Barely, but I made it!
ETA Copenhagen: 00:00. Should have been 21:39, but at least it isn’t 04:30 🥲
Now I can finally settle in for a 5hr train ride without tight connections or worrying if I will manage to get home tonight

I seem to have packed my tablet stand into my backpack… but I managed to improvise something even more sturdy

Ok… the Danish IC3 trains have been in service for 35 years now.
I estimate that around 50% of passengers still don’t know how to open the internal doors 🫠
(For those not local to Denmark: it requires a horizontal hand wave side to side across the door; usually best done between 50 and 100cm from the sensor, but most of them can handle closer too

@MThaastrup @nichni Jo men der er vist stadig kun en knap på den ene side. Og de fleste der kender knappen ved ikke at den skal trykkes på to gange for ikke at forblive åben
