This was one of the Michael Cramer MEP priority lines from 2015. One wonders if he ever bothered coming to Körösnagyharsány… #CrossBorderRail
You can just about make out some track in the middle of the pic here #CrossBorderRail
All that Channel Tunnel stuff feels a LONG way off. #CrossBorderRail
Lőkösháza. Where there’s time in the timetable for a border control but no border control. #CrossBorderRail
I’ve missed trains plenty of times. But today is only the second time ever where my carriage missed its train, and instead got connected to another (later) train. #CrossBorderRail
Ah. A Bzmot. I was not meant to have those out of the window at this time! #CrossBorderRail
Oops. Night train has more than 6 hours of delay. #CrossBorderRail
Ah. They’ve connected the night train carriages to IC 371 instead! 🤯 But will we get beyond Arad? #CrossBorderRail

Internet here where I’m stuck is patchy. Fingers crossed this #CrossBorderRail summary video works! https://peertube.netzbegruenung.de/w/6iQt37kADdrTESp2RgEYeA
The sleeping car attendant tells me there’s no power in Győr, so we’re being held where there is power. We don’t know how long this will take to fix. #CrossBorderRail
On the #CrossBorderRail night train Hegyeshalom - Sighisoara. We’ve got as far as Öttevény, a village near Győr, and are now stuck. A Railjet heading to Budapest is likewise stuck. I’ve got no appointments tomorrow so I’m not that bothered, thankfully.
It’s so obscure that even Wikipedia has nothing about the Angern - Záhorská Ves #CrossBorderRail line.
But there was a plaque at Záhorská Ves. There was a narrow gauge electrified line on the bridge - transporting sugar beet from and processed sugar to Angern, as the sugar refinery was in Záhorská Ves.
It all ended in 1945.
There's also a #CrossBorderRail train-bike tour from Wien to Bratislava, including a ferry and examinations of a couple of cross border lines. It all starts at 10am on Sunday at Wien Praterstern - come along!

A few photos from the start #CrossBorderRail today. The Canal de Bourgogne at Ravières in the fog on the way to the station. The old telephone sign at Nuits sous Ravières station. A Nez-Cassé SNCF locomotive at Dijon. And views climbing into the Jura from the window of the TGV.
