  1. 🇫🇷 Avant de repartir vers Bruxelles, je suis enfin monté sur cette passerelle piétonne/cycliste qui passe au-dessus des voies de la gare de Leuven, une chouette vue (malgré la vitre) sur la gare.

    Bonne soirée. 👋 🙂

    🇬🇧 Before departing to Brussels, I finally go on this pedestrian/cycle bridge above the tracks of railway station in Leuven. A nice view (despite the glass) on the railway station.

    Have a nice evening. 👋 🙂

  2. Very good, if hasty, lunch at SJ Malmö 1st class lounge: Skagenröra, (chicken?) meat balls, potato salad and pancakes. Other stuff available, too, but I had no time to taste everything.

  3. Looking forward to SJ Malmö first class lounge and what they have to offer for lunch. Oh, the excitement!

  4. There's an issue with the accessible room on tonight's Crescent back to Philly. Amtrak automatically tried to put me in a roomette on the upper level, knowing I travel with a rollator. While I appreciate the efforts of trying to keep me on my reserved train, you can't just put someone on the upper level of a train, knowing they have a mobility device, without asking them first.

    tl;dr: I'm in Atlanta an extra day.

  5. You can soon travel to Finland over rail - "Finland gains direct rail link to Europe this summer" yle.fi/a/74-20220038 (in english)

    The track gauge in Finland is still different to European standard though, so passengers are required to change trains in Haparanda.

  6. Instead of train to Odense and a replacement bus to hamburg, I'll be doing some breathtaking train-bus-surfing and will arrive in Hamburg a bit before 01, if everything goes well. "Well". Well, anyway, I got to know the Hyllie station pretty thoroughly, and there's a stylish water tower beside it.

  7. Well, it was good idea to leave Malmö a tad early, since there are delays with Öresundståg, the latest being "people running around in the railway area, no idea when they'll stop".

  8. Back in good ol' 525, that doesn't even pretend to reach Copenhagen anymore. I'm happy I didn't schedule the earlier train to Malmö, since Viking Line was some 15 minutes late in Stockholm, and I would have missed it.

    But more importantly: my #travelsocks.

  9. Waiting for the Crescent to Atlanta! Over/under on how late in get there in the morning? #TrainTravel #Amtrak

  10. Recently I was surprised what "Intercity" stands for in Denmark. On the inside, it's more spacious than it looks from the outside, but it didn't help my first impression that two of the three doors did not open and the reservation LEDs did not work. Anyway, it was punctual.
    It also surprised me to see that the 1st class coach was rather full, and many young people, too.
