#CrossBorderRail #LongestTrainEU Record Attempt Train 4 of 18R 741515:40 Umeå Östra - Sundsvall C 18:39Norrtåg

@sebwilken @jon I think the train is rather comfy and great departure time but it would provide so much more value (to me anyway) if it extended to Copenhagen. Slightly longer sleep, and one less connection in the usually crowded morning Ötåg.

The personnel turned up. So we’re running again. +20 #LongestTrainEU
@jon At least the Talgo exists… it’s been cancelled every time I tried to take it.
Anyway, you’re in Germany now. It should be smooth sailing from here…
…Oh wait…

@smveerman DSB can't even run a toilet.

@Pepijn @smveerman @jon That the toilets are out of order in old trainsets like IC3 and ER4 is perhaps what you could expect (Happens more often than not these days). But in a new train...
Anyway - Talgos with one or two locomotives: It depends. I see both versions when I encounter a Talgo. But DSB are low on Vectrons

Hey look, it's one of my favourite bridges!

@jacobchristensen @Pepijn @jon the toilets probably need a software update, just like a software update solved almost all interior door problems in NS’ ICNG (the future DSB IC5 is from the same product line) 🥲

@jon The final frontier: Crossing Germany by train and in time. Good luck!

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!
