have fun
God I love planes
Glow part 2
buy a ticket from a man
I did
The car carrier sleeper train to Humenné has 1 car
They shunted an extra car onto the EC to Nove Zamky but now it's too long
so there's just thirty eople on the tracks now
yeah it's cool how people do this even in the biggest station in the country
Based
yes and no
why
you window hang
good
you fly to slovakia and leave it immediatly
bad
I have a free sleeping place in wien
Good platforms
.. good platforms, better windows
this is why autoslaaptreinen are basicly dead. they make no sense in 2020's
roads and cars are good enough to do journeys.
I think the Finnish ones make sense
autoslaaptreinen made sense when highways were still karrepsoren and cars not as reliable as today's
Because that's a route where most people will end up driving another several hundred km
there are ofc a few border cases where it still works out. but mostly not.
not rare
thank you
bad. also no fake wood floor
wiener linien was oen of the first to get new citaro's when they came out
fake wood floors and plastic seatback with logo
I remember making these for omsi 😳
nice
"sicher sauber ekölogisch"
they had on side above windows
doubt anybody would do that nowadays on diesel busse.s
this is like ns1200 with i❤️betuweroute stickers
yes this is a good rit
can also take it down the rheinstrecke but that seems a lot slower
yea
Aaaaaa ICE T 🥰
we're somehow still bang on time
did you pass nuremberg yet?
that why you are not pranked yet. somwhere Nuremberg-wurzburg is where magic happens
yes
we just left nurnberg
actually Würzburg Frankfurt is the bigger bottleneck
I gotta give up my seat in würzburg :(
Hanau
unless theese people got pranked
doubt it
I should go kraantje lek and foto some trains to and from zandvoort once.
We arrived early???
how
wtf.
R a r e
extremely rare

wtf all ontime?
so far so good
i will hold DB personally accountable for you being ontime
how are you doing interrail cross border? fraud or inbound
inbound
rare
Sophie innocent and legaal
willl you treinbier?
Sophie herpaal
They're doing weird things
We're coupled to ice Brussel
We're being split at the airport
Then the Brussel ice goes to Köln nonstop and we will stop in montabaur and siegburg
this also happened when i came back from malta on the ice i missed at airport
i think its because you guys wont go via hbf but via low tracks at deut.
we will go via Hbf tho
hmm then its weird.
maybe this just looks weird now because normaly you would go via deutz low
i think you guys even get another on coupled on in Siegburg or smth. When i speedrun malta the vrussels one got of and next station a set was added untill duisburg (and it even continue onto essen)
lmao
Bistro shutters opened
Train braked
A shitton of dishes crashed into the ground
shutters closed
lol
Veel plezier
this is normal
or relatively normal
i have seen this happen 3 times
reizigergdm
at fmf
what's stealth about this
why does this vc exist everywhere
i have no idea why it's called that
fucking weird country man
i am the only dutch person in this server and we have a gekoloniseerd channel too
i didnt make it
is a model.line of them with the less flashy red dragon lappy's
what the fuck is that channel list
i read that as bad dragon lappy
imagine this server but full of south east asians
this doesnt make it any better
why
I suggest another copium war
wdym
opium war
what problem does this solve
this has previously solved a lot
good
sophie verantwoording afleggen
Having your own channel is cool
you can make a lore channel too
I don't have enough (interesting) lore I feel like
Also shoutout to the channelname "super ahem"
The name is very duidelijk
it says nothing to me lol
It has a nsfw warning icon too as extra hint
its not nsfw really
are you getting pranked
not controversial in the server
but its like
hong kongers talking shit about their government
yep you are getting pranked
concerning
how many broken wc in trainset?
"fahren Sie mit nach Amsterdam?"
"nei ich fahre nach 's-hertogenbosch"
she tried to repeat that
but germans just cannot say 's-hertogenbosch lmao
left track of SFS now
herzogenbusch is a name that was used in the past still might be
lol they ran out of water for coffee
this may be harder then scheveningen.
It's time.
The last piece of railway in regular passenger service in the Netherlands I need
First we gotta go to Den Haag tho
ohno soph 100% nl
Nog niet
België heb ik teleurstellend weinig
Luxemburg geen 100% is ook niet ok
have you 100% Liechtenstein yet?
She has
excellent
jij komt hier echt te veel
new lore
Very good succes en veel plezier
Te weinig*
sorry
It's not that bad
It's my 7th time here
4 arrivals and two departures so far, this is departure 3
Nice
I think I have been to enough different airports that I maybe haven’t been to the same one seven times
I've departed from eindhoven 9 times
i haven't flown enough to have been at the same airport seven times
and arrived five times
10 dusseldorf inbounds go brrr
at least you didn't fly brussel-frankfurt
not yet
i should fly maastricht-amsterdam
you have a problem
rude
who
they're like medium long
Daniël not aso
steward got called by another steward at the other end of the plane
but yes this fine
Strekking your legs but if boarding was finished I would have done this too (in fact I did after taking that pic)
this is because they see you ad frequent flyer lol
yeah boarding was finished 
Cool and good and approved and not aso
looks dik
shame about the parkeerplaats right next to it
also crazy planes get that close
the french really cooked on this one
hdfhdfhdf
its cool how tergnier is jut recognizeable due to the huge yards
hdf hdf hdf
why would you put it there terrible
Nope
That same artist did do some art in Quebec ville too
Did you see that?
You can see they pressure washed them off lol
bus
half-decent
did not notice
did not know either
did you get a flap ticket in occitanie?
ah. thats still happening. nice
Nice flamingo's are cool
yes. that cool of that line
also towards beziers.
how bad
awful
Gecondoleerd
sharing food
Yes
This is nice
I'm surprised they were this comfortable around me
Sophie.png.jpeg
my condolances
sete?
Collioure
The line from Collioure further south to Portbou is very nice, its close to the coast
Portbou station is massive but mostly unused now
doesnt your mum get crazy from all this lijntjes afstrepe
of course it was
her ideas are just as speedrunny as mine
you actually visit a place. idk if that qualifies as speedtun @verbal haven ???
cerbere is just as sad as portbou lol
maybe even more sad. the tunnel between station and town is more like a sewer pipe then pedestrian tubnel
It's a tourism speedrun, not a travel speedrun
I should set it in stone
but all I know is that max is terrible at it
but a true speedrun is generally pretty tiring
yeah after 2-3 days it sucks
i did a powernap without noticing on that tvv bus today.
This is a good travel pace for me
Every day I'm exhausted at 22:00
and sleep until 6:30-7
I walk 15km per day on holiday
Think about the ritten
I was this on Sweden trip and it was quite good
but a proper speedrun kinda sucks it's a bit too much
isnt portbou kind of a station with a town
healthy
yes
lets see how much i walked today
probably 20 at least
actually
i cycled heen
yeah only 15
i walked 3 max. lol
maybe even 2
idk did a little round in Aurillac and Issoire. But walking when heaving a full bag is a bit annoying
Should do some multinight hotel once.
we have a bad plan for tomorrow
8:30 bus here, 09:00 city centre
10:10-10:57 train villefanche conflent
13:06-13:55 train Perpignan
Visit casa xanxo and hotel pams
15:58-16:13 train collioure
Walk back to argeles sur Mer via coastal path
17:37 bus perpignan
let's go
Never seen anything other than agc here
beautiful line tho but mostly south of collioure
how comfortable is this walk
lio z-ters are gone
they had 2 spare last year but they where never used anymore afail
it's pretty nice, I've done it before
isnt this part of some european walking route all the way into spain?
atleast that is what i used to cross from portbou into cerbere.
This morning I got pranked by Perpignan buses
The local one you had to phone up apparently so we had to walk 15 mins
Then I got pranked by the sncf by a last minute train cancellation so we ended up taking a bus to Le Racou
We walked the coastal path from Argeles to Collioure
Shared a baguette
TERed our way to Villefranche de conflent
Beautiful town but very small
RARE
RARE
it's the winter train
ahm
last year when i went latour they just ran those 1910 orso units
that was jan or feb. dont remember
View from jonko bankje
extremely cool
20 min walk
nice
Those still run
they only have two of these
no
did you know about jonko bankje before?
Sophie travels best travels
you got belbussed
I did not
imagine it being mentioned and still getting it wrong
Should take a bel terbus once on an interrail ticket.
yes he is talking about you
no you
geniet ervan
is that tvv?
Train staff shortage
occitanie spits moment
they need to get regiolissen there.
or even those new doubledecker things
yes
yes
i do wonder how much did i complete so far, should probably ton the same level as you both
paris area seems most annoying to 100% lol. all else is easy because lack of train there is usually only 1 working route.
I should do the LGV's if i reallt wanna bumb my %
Common Sophie probleem
this is why i kinda thought of just doing meme lines first then the last part is easy
My TGV lines were for meme trips too lol
or just Lausanne speedruns
I used LGV paris - Metz because the Brussel - lux line closed
So we went via paris instead since it was now the fastest route
lol
its funny how tgv are so teleporting that detouring lots of km via paris is often the fastest.
Spain also has this
feve my beloved
isn't it called cercanias am these days?
but sure thing everyone calls it feve
like many call eurostar red still thalys
I think it’s still feve
but the north does have lots of weird cercanias too
Bilbao only has cercanias on Iberian gauge
same for San Sebastián
Santander does have narrow gauge cercanias
Asturias too
no
no
oh
cercarias am are the suburban trains
The trains say renfe feve
Bilbao has cercarias on the feve line towards Santander
Bilbao Concordia - La Calzada
oh C4 exists
not all sources have this so i assume this is newer
nice this used to be a C4f
same how Santander had a C2f
How is my €13 ticket paying for all of these people
this isn't a lot lol
not a lot at all
same thought like how are 1 euro tickets going to fund train conductors in Occitanie
that's where ye olde government comes in i guess
I love socialism
@edgy dagger you should Memmingen
its slightly more difficult
because previously all narrow gauge was feve
now only the narrow gauge network in the north
the rest has been turned into cercanias
some also went from feve to metro
I dont really understand how they divided it but its more regional now
and C9 was never feve and this kind of shit
and some feve is also cercanias but I still dont understand how they decided this or how the brand is any diffrent from the regular feve brand
my real problem is the double definitions
enjoy
V e e l p l e z i e r
that person
Today's train is brought to you by the colour beige
luxemburg?
yes
Dirty ass curtains
via saarbrücken?
Nope, too lazy to check if the German stuff runs
I'm going via Nancy - luneville - St die - Strasbourg
must be healthy
Sint sterf
It's pronounced di-jee
Sint Disk Jockey
I'm in mexico
yes... i could not find anybody who understand where i wnated to go when looking for the bus to dijee.
are you doing one of the stupid lux sout lines to?
no, lux is cheap and easy to get to
also gf said she's feeling better so I cancelled the hotel
ow. .. lux-volmerange-bettembourg-thionville though
this can work sacrafising overstap times
just gonna do this I think
so I get the Nancy - Strasbourg via luneville and St die line
bit of a shame one can't open these links when on a laptop
how do you make this long screens on sbb app?? you are android too right?
i can make long screenshots on android
i believe it's just take screenshot and then press expand or scroll or whatever
ye
at least, it is for me
hmm is this an android 12 feature?
nah my phone is too old
it's a general android feature now yeah, but quite new i believe
sophie lijnen
well, at least one doesn't need to reserve for TERs yet
so it's about the fastest route one can do without TGV
just going Metz - Strasbourg via the direct line would be quicker
It used to be exclusive to some specific skins like OneUI ye
vibe
good contrast with the station building
raamhang
nice
are you finaly grand est wanking?
yes
I need to get to Switzerland and the Germans are on strike
so might as well
you should RB yourself to switzerland
they got some pretty long RB's
so shouldnt be too hard
but those are also on strike
I found at that this is not always the case
All DB ones are
also going via Germany isn't worth it if not for the Schnellfahrstrecke
There's one that runs I think
A few RBs run
And SBB just said fuck it and is now running their own RBs to Freiburg
power move ngl
cute kerkje
de basel
rijdt dit trouwens?
just domestic
Yes
very good
we should do this
just run an inconvenient ice between arnhem and amsterdam
actually IC berlijn is substituted right?
i assume
the Belgians are running brussel - köln
good
Yesss
Mooi en goed
she has been ever after completing hdf...
no. there was somda lore about this not being the case
its pretty bad that they dont i think
they really shouldnt run it as an integrated IC now that they also skip almelo and stuff
which was this?
france ahs too many good lines though. Alsace-Loraine is nice
Saint Dié - Strasbourg
how are you feeling
fine
nice
ICN yippee
That's not ICN smh
lol the kids section of this train has a little cinema thing
The guard told an adult off for sitting there because the train is so full
:(((
lol
Wrong channel
xd
gn
who ever thought this would suffice as sleeping arrangement must never have slept on a bed
It's pretty comfy tbh but I don't think I'd want to sit here for ten hours
but idk OEBB has just given up on rolling stock it seems and uses nightjets on 2 hour long EC routes
Yes
yes
one chair is stuck lol
are you straight onto the balkans after
avondeten
Was supposed to take ICE115
does this go to villach
delay?
yes
how much
+12
It's Stundentakt to villach
But 2-hourly to Ljubljana
gn
Night
Gn and enjoy
Shit @edgy dagger https://achat-hotels.com/winter-flatrate
400€ for 31 nights.
I should have known this before. this is good for german memes.
you can sta upto 7 days consecutive and then have to move to an other place of them
I i had only known before.... get a D-ticket and 31 days i had free
€399 for 31 nights i wish i had time
this would have been great yeah
how does this work
That's a very good deal yeah
you just buy the pass and can make 31 days reservations in the hotels of the chain
uwu
lol
this is nmbs level of bad
Ritten 🥰
classic
go find them for lolz
@verbal haven d trein
so who is this guy
no idea
so one if them is the drive
don't think so
ÖBB stock shortage moment
but driver had a nwb backpack you said
I thought it was the driver
but it seems to just be some guy trying to be autistenstoel in a talent
nice... thats why he has nwb backpack and traweling account
he also has ranked quite a lot of km
good
lol
@verbal haven
Railway works
TTT
lol this is super cheap
I'd do this if I was in Europe
hmm
@swift wolf watertappunt
Ljubljana
anyways I got sick so I spent like twelve hours in bed before finally managing to go somewhere
after downing some paracetamol
how are doing now
JE HEBT DEZELFDE GESPOT ALS ROEL HEMKES AAAAAA
goddamnit someone beat me to it
Not just someone but the ceo of treinposities
Very very very epic
:(
Hope it stops doing that soon
gl
What is the plan
Train at like 9am tomorrow
late
this is scary
they had something like this in a german mek i went to and it was really terrible
it really struggled to manouvre
Bad bad bad bad bad
This also seems really really inefficient
The normal method of just placing trays somewhere can stack a lot more without requiring rare minerals/tech waste
Afruimbanden seem best.
Because the complicated sort your wast your self id jsut onhandig and people put it worng.
Get a afruim band wich transport trays with waste and leftovers to a mongol in spoelkeuken that can sort it and clean
If you have the space for it like ikea restaurants: yes
Otherwise I'm fine with how normal mcdonaldsen do it
also saves personal going round and colelc tthe trays at the garbage points and saves dirty gabrae/wast colecting stations in the restaurent
normal mc cna also make space for this.
afruiim banden ick where this started, i thinmv&D restaurants were first.
i only recall seeing them in nl too
What does it actually taste of
Koper seems nice
not italy, too little betonrot
Trst is fake italy
this place is a bigger shithole than slovenia
beer is cheaper too
trieste is austrian hungarian pride
not to strange you endup in industrial shitholes
i see a theme more and more
You should go Gela and Taranto
Italian elevated roads are good
Genova is good for this too
Sopraelevata my beloved
Slava Ukraini
It looks wonky
SLAVA UKRAINI
🇺🇦
🇺🇦
?
You gotta be more schizo about it
did they ever reach trieste
they reached wien
not sure if they ever went out of their way to conquer trieste
I know they sieged wien
and because of some confusion they lost the siege
eventho all ods were in their favour
cool now I know why september 11 was the date for the attacks
wild
venezia was probably to rich and wealthy
for them to pull it off
or evne it would distrub trades and economics etc too big for them to mess with venezia
didnt venezia have like big trade with turkey in the first place
like turkey was the middle man in trading with the east
which is one of th reasons the VOC was so succesful because we just went directly
very likely venezia and the ottomans relied on eahc other
https://www.histecon.magd.cam.ac.uk/coins_jan2015.html They had some fights about a few territories, but mostly trade was more important and they weren't hostile
nyeow
boot
boot
Muggia is nice
Gave up on public transport and now we're just walking to koper
how far is this
Doable
good citaro
the inconsistent bike paths are also kinda annoying
Why can't I get %
because i want to go up in italy %
and otherwise you just go 10x and get some insane unbeatable % 🤣
i should 100% fse
Good
Ayy it runs
RIT?
ic502
thanks
are you going to hungaria?
I assume it’s the longest service in the country right
you should oost more sophie
i do not care about oost
what do you care about then
hdf
how much hdf have you done?
soph has 100% hdf...
except some rare curves
(Really only Lille Delivrace diversion when Lille CHR is shut and the cambrai avoider is what's needed afaik.)
mooi
Glad I didn't get a flirt for once
is the line to nova gorizia?
Fyra 🥰🥰🥰
come to turin on Saturday

rare
where is the venice lore???
Venice sunk 
Found a 1999 tube map
this is very cool
Good
Gray water
nice
are you enjoying venice?
yeah
i mean im not fully surprised
i think people forget how big venice is
and its very much not tourism season
tourists only go to like three places in venice
the places where they filmed spider-man yeah
The San Marco Plaza is really busy
and like three other places yea
our hotel was cheap af for a reason
well its also in mestre right
ye but it's a 5 min walk from the station
there's a cool hostel near mestre
its january.
mestre is a shithole but right next to the station is really good
it's February
Can confirm
I went to venice when i was little for a week, most of it is quiet
Well, i say little, i was about 13 lmao
Damn
I went to it once when I was 14 and it was decently busy but not insanely so, and very concentrated
The only holiday where I won't forget how old I was
Yes
when are you streek bussen italie
sophie ritten
because it doesn't make much sense from the hotel
fair enough
i guess its omweg
to the station
because it goes centrum mestre first
have you been in downtown mestre at all?
.... meming lines shouldnt make sense...
No
yesterday I just spent in bed because I got sick again
100% OV hdf
Venice is the land of fyras. Basically all of them are in lines passing/ or with origin/ destination Venice
very good
Walked around Venezia some more in the sun
Time to leave now
This pointy boy is our direct train back to lausanne
this is very good
this does the simplon route right
yes
this is also just goed
Very good train
Do you have opinions about the nose design of the rock trains?
it's good
🤝
yes

good fer eeping?
Gf has been asleep since Padova so I think so
This is cool and I must experience tilting train one day
take IC51
IC51 is pretty good
Thay are actually quite weird if you are seated facing backwards
I hope you enjoyed the almost sunset on the bridge going to mainland
