Je rêvais de faire cette photo depuis des mois, mais je n'ai pas laissé la canicule me dissuader de sortir. Le secret ? Se lever tôt. Sans la canicule qui m'a obligé à revoir mes plans, je serais arrivé plus tard, et j'aurais alors raté ce train.

For those interested in such things, here is a visualization of timetabled freight movement on the #British heavy-rail network, for the period (four weeks) 2026-03-09 to 2026-04-05, aggregated at a one hour intervals.
I think it shows that freight is very much 24h, that the extent of freight on the network and how Sundays are quiet.

For those interested in such things, here is a visualization of passenger movement on in #British heavy-rail timetable for the week 03-09 to 2026-03-15, aggregated at a ten-minute intervals.
I think it shows that passenger services are more urban with a high level of service from morning to late evening.

Exciting footage from my container ship voyage in 2015! I watched passing ships all day from the bridge. Somewhere on the Baltic Sea.

🇪🇬 An Alstom-led consortium, including Rowad Modern Engineering and Concrete Plus, has signed four contracts worth around €690 million with #Egyptian National #Railways to modernise the 6th of October–Alexandria corridor and the Belbes–10th of Ramadan (B10) line. The projects support #Egypt Vision 2030 by improving connectivity and freight efficiency.
The €550 million 6th of October–Alexandria scheme will introduce digital signalling, upgraded #telecommunications, stronger power systems and track improvements, cutting journey times by nearly 80 minutes while improving safety, capacity and reliability. The €140 million B10 project will deliver similar upgrades, strengthening links to a major industrial zone. The works are expected to boost #trade, ease supply chain pressures and support sustainable #freight #transport, with around 50% local content.

🚄🇬🇧 The Department for #Transport has outlined plans for a new accountability framework for Great #British #Railways (GBR), including a single licence covering #infrastructure and passenger services. GBR would oversee the railway, while the Transport Secretary would retain strategic oversight, funding control and powers to issue directions.
The Office of Rail and Road (ORR) would regulate performance and enforce licence conditions, while a passenger watchdog would oversee #consumer standards. Separate arrangements are also proposed for #Scotland and #Wales.
The licence would replace multiple existing licences and cover passenger standards, asset management, retail practices, environmental responsibilities and wider rail cooperation. #Freight and open-access operators would continue to hold separate licences.
The DfT said the proposals are not final and further consultation will take place later this year.

#Russia has doubled rail #freight #tariffs to #Estonia, #Latvia, and #Finland as of 1 June 2026. Estonian #logistics expert Raivo Vare suggested that the double rate was an attempt to redirect #transit shipments of #cargo to Russian #ports.
