The most Swiss sight ever... #Taktfahrplan #PostBus #ÖV
Seen in #Küblis.

#TatryAlpy

#Landquart is where metre gauge network of #RhätischeBahn #RhB starts. Three EMUs for #Davos and Scuol-Tarasp. Trains are ** of course ** very tidy, great interior... 👌🇨🇭

#TatryAlpy

And off to #Landquart, very short ride on #IC3 #SBB EW-IV. 😍

#Sargans Grüezi. Ciao #EN40462

#TatryAlpy

The couchette compartment of #EuroNight #EN40462 was a former DB one run by #Hungarian railways with the blue #couchettes. Four out of six being sold. Aircon was working ok for most of the time, but not all the time... Managed to get some sleep 💤 At #Buchs, I got interrogated by Swiss customs. Guten Morgen #Schweiz!

#TatryAlpy

Well well well I was VERY lucky to be back in #WienHbf 30min before departure... Because the timetable of #EN40462 has changed and moved forward to 22:58. This was however not shown in the #ÖBB app! Even Swiss app is confused... I wonder how many people missed their Night Train tonight...

Entering into #Austria after #Petrzalka is not the most exciting #CrossBorderRail experience I've had. It's rather green. Just noticed the catenary change @dominicstucki ;-)

Next stop #Kittsee

#TatryAlpy

Interior arrangement of #GySEV #Raaberbahn seems just like ÖBB one... I appreciate the heating conduct as a foot rest. Most new rolling stock don't have this. Also great Aircon...

#TatryAlpy #REX6

Now off to the "Internationaler Regionalexpress" as the announcement calls it. Two EMUs, one belonging to #GySEV / #Raaberbahn and one to #ÖBB. Obviously choosing Raaberbahn for the sake of originality. The ÖBB one continues to Deutschkreutz, the GySEV ends in #WienHbf, which is my next stop.

#REX6
Bratislava 18:16
Wien Hbf 19:15

#CrossBorderRail #TatryAlpy

Got my ticket, and yes, I could have bought it on the #ZSSK app or website. But I don't understand why #ÖBB cannot sell it, if they sell it in the other direction?! One cannot expect every member of the public to download 27 different apps for 27 European countries!

@jon Hopping through #Bratislava hlavna stanica to Bratislava-Petrzalka because of construction works. There is no ticket machine in #Petrzalka. The person at the desk has been there for a decent 15 minutes... Another 45min before the train to Vienna leaves... #CrossBorderRail #CrossBorderTickets #TatryAlpy

Quite happy about this shot I got in #Trencin...

SuperCity Pendolino Košičan!

#TatryAlpy

Now seated in the 1st class compartment, as we pass #Puchov. #EC122 to Prague on the other platform. Next stop is #Trencin.

#Zilina has received some decent infrastructure investment as it looks. New platforms and tracks receiving their finishing touches.

Seen in #Vrutky ... 👀
Parked there since two years apparently.

Arrived in #Kralovny, beautiful station hall. Train to #Trstená is turning back. #Ex606 #Tatran to #Bratislava is announced with 30min delay... I was planning on changing to a faster #IC, this will not be possible anymore. But #Tatran also has a restaurant car, so hopes are high I'll get something to eat.

Also I love the printed carriage position indicators. Childhood memories...

@dominicstucki isn't this a mix of German and Swiss catenaries?

A cute station selection so far on the #Trstená - #Kralovany line.

It's really a #Railbus #Schienenbus. I like the overhead racks. They allow the interior to be perceived as very airy and spacious. You could hold a conference or teach a class in this space.

Here we go! #Trstená --> Davos! I'll call this the #TatryAlpy trip.

First leg: Trstená --> #Kralovany on this roaring diesel train, whose engine is on thirty minutes before departure. We'll follow the #Orava river.

Bye bye beautiful #Tatra!
