I've meanwhile got some second degree connection on LinkedIn lecturing me about how to use the Paris Gare du Nord Eurostar terminal

Look dude, I don't need to be told how to use a station. I will manage. The question is whether *less able* and *less regular* passengers have a station and processes they need!

I now know why it’s still called Ashford International. There are signs to it in French! 😀 #CrossChannelRail

So #CrossBorderRail #CrossChannelRail starts again today, sort of

Between now and 18 Jan I’m going Ravières - Paris - London - Ashford - London - Oxford - London - Bruxelles - Berlin - Ravières

First challenge: is this train going to go? It’s snowy out there! And the train hasn’t hit the snow band yet!

And I’m off to Ashford

The announcement jingle is strange in these trains. It’s the same as the one on the Stockholm metro

And I keep thinking Durr - duhh - dahh Odenplan! Not, err, Ebbsfleet

Euronews versucht zu erklären, was DB und Eurostar diese Woche vereinbart haben. Und verdammt, das ist völliger Unsinn.

https://de.euronews.com/reise/2025/12/05/eurostar-auf-kurs-deutschland-und-grossbritannien-zu-verbinden-wann-starten-direktzuge

Warum sind die Medien nicht in der Lage, grundlegende Fakten zu überprüfen?
