I create train trip reports on YouTube every week! Here to show the great side of train travel and advocate as much as possible for more trains… for the greater good 🚆🌍🌱 https://linktr.ee/simply_railway
Racing ya!
Paris is on sight 👀
Bonjour 🌞 from the Nightjet 424 Berlin - Paris
Breakfast is served ☕️
We will pick it up (with Nox) in 2029-2030.
The demand is stable and strong enough to run a daily night train
Taking the #Nightjet Berlin - Paris for the last time probably as this service will be cancelled on December 14th due to a lack of funding on the French side.
I’m really going to miss this… let’s enjoy one last time :(
The very first (ever!) #ICE between Berlin and Amsterdam 🇩🇪 🚄 🇳🇱
Unfortunately not traveling onboard it today but this is a welcome upgrade for travelers on this corridor!
The Eastbound is leaving LA at 10:00PM so they have enough time to service the train

Something I will never understand about the #Amtrak #SunsetLimited WB
The planned arrival of 04:55AM is brutal (been there) Amtrak employees will wake you up at 04:00AM and kick you in LA?
Why not waiting in Palm Springs siding for 2-3 hours and arrive at a normal hour in LA ?
TGV Inoui could in theory. Instead of having just two round trip a day complemented by a third round trip when the moon is aligned with Jupiter in the week end only ;)

Menu with no Interrail reduction option
SNCF staff trying and failing to help
SNCF’s loathing of Eurail / Interrail hits new heights
SNCF Connect never sold TGV seat reservations, but Grandes Lignes ticket machines in stations did
But now that has stopped - I just checked in Dijon
I even asked staff, and they were likewise stumped
Solution: use RailEurope.com instead!
Guess which one carries more people, takes up less space, emits less noise, is better for the planet, better for peace of mind, makes for a faster journey… I could go on for hours.
