When I have the opportunity, I like to indulge in low-speed #train travel around #Europe accompanied by a Peruvian finger puppet which ruins what would otherwise be perfectly good travel pictures. linktr.ee/siegeavecvue

Im Zugteil nach Inverness war übrigens das Bordrestaurant außer Betrieb und es gab nur kalte Snacks. Und morgens gab's nach Fort William keine Heißgetränke. Die gleichen Probleme überall...

Dafür gab es in der Lounge im Bahnhof Tee und heiße Schokolade.

I've just noticed that @ghost.org 6 appears to repost to #ActivityPub when an updated post is saved, which might explain why people (me) are seeing random things turning up in their feeds. Is this an undocumented features? Have I missed an option somewhere? @index.siegeavecvue.eu.ap.brid.gy

Modified alttexty.org: Rendered cross-section of four contemporary sleeping units in a hostel. Each unit, decorated in white, has a bed with a dark blanket, pillows, a fake window, and built-in storage, as well as a table and TV. Black support beams and ladders connect the floors.

Arrival at Divriği, where the electrification ends and our locomotive gets a refuelling.

The scenery around here is some of the best I've seen anywhere in the world - what a truly legendary rail journey! 😍

A view of a first class window seat on a Transport for Wales service. Through the window we can see trees on a green horizon. Beneath the window, a table with power sockets. Either side of the table, bit comfy leather seats. A Peruvian finger puppet is enjoying the view.

They Let Me Fly the Plane I successfully crashed an A320. Seven times. Six of them on purpose.

I have known @sylvia for many years and am only now realising why I've instinctively only ever agreed to share land transportation with her. This is #aviation not #trains, but too good not to share. https://open.substack.com/pub/sylviawrigley/p/they-let-me-fly-the-plane #pullup

View on the same viaduct, but this time from the side. Lake in the foreground, behind the viaduct the old houses from earlier that day. A silver-red Voyager crosses the bridge in the evening light.

And, just before the shadows reach the viaduct, a CrossCountry "Voyager", which fits in rather nicely here in 5-car configuration.

Passing through the Swiss Alps by means of the #Lötschberg tunnel car-carrying train earlier today. The #BLS Re4/4 in their classic brown livery, lined up at #Kandersteg yard, used to be the main work horses on the line for many years.
