@kobold Right, I know. I am German
@jon damn it, sorry I forgot.

It seems all passengers in your Copenhagen - Hamburg train will be locomotive drivers.. Must be something new DSB bought..
Have a good night!
@Pepijn self-checkout for train travel?
-
Also it’s quite funny: had I escaped Haparanda yesterday, I’d have got caught by the line closure due to the bomb in Hamburg today
As it is the bomb *might* be clear by tomorrow lunchtime?

BTW how much did all of this cost?

@jon thanks for this very thorough page, as I was curious about the price of this trip with and without interrail.
Interrail is not always the best value, especially when you are travelling as a family (kids>12), but it certainly offers a level of flexibility that is worth taking into account.
And for the little story, Rovaniemi - Faro, booked for in 28 days, is 462€ with the cheapest possible fare by airplane (2 stopovers).
As more often than most people think, the train is cheaper.

@jon That is good news! Although the trains between Denmark and Germany can create a lot of issues even without bombs…
