Okay, now that #FOSSRail is over, let's go with my connecting trip to Kho Pha-ngan : I will spend the next 10 hours inside the :srt: R171 train bringing me from 🇹🇭 Bangkok Krung Thep Aphiwat station to 🇹🇭 Surat Thani Tha Kham station - arriving at 1 a.m. in the night 😵‍💫. I will enjoy 600 km on meter gauge third class - at least with an open window. Wish me luck. Inside temperature : 35 °C.

Good night 🇸🇮 #Koper ! Using the :hu_ex: #RetroIstra night train from the #Adria coast to Hungary my @direkter_weg #MostDirectConnection home goes on by night in the direction of 🇭🇺 #Budapest. #TeamNightTrain #TeamOpenWindows #Braidria

There is my train. 😍 With a wonderfull nez cassé locomotive hauling it. Bi voltage BB22280, wonder if that has a reason over usual BB7200. A un-renovated corail couchette, didn't know these still existed in 1st class. My compartment is still empty, lets see what happens, would be a luxury.
You can say what you want about SNCF, but their nighttrain product is by far best bangs for buck. General type of traveler also differs to for example nightjet. I always experience much more regular people just going to paris instead of leisure travel and holiday makers.
Anyway, I didnt board in cerbere, but thats all french night trains ridden. (I really need to redo it to get to cerbere do I?)

Got to Bézier with the IC Aubrac. Slight delay of +25 on arrival. Fine for me, I'm on the backup plan anyway. From here it will be #TeamNightTrain to Paris, thats if staff are fine with me boarding on a Cerbere reservation. According staff in Marvejols they will. And I guess the total mess here in Béziers caused by a incident with a freight train between Narbonne and Perpignan, it will be fine. But you never know with SNCF. There still are backup plans existing, which I discovered too late to make my main goal. (ryanair from here to Weeze is surprisingly cheap). Would have loved to visit another Tour de France stage and Montpellier 8lis around the corner tomorrow.

Well a beer to lessen the worries while waiting then. Although I would rather be standing in an open window of a corail and enjoying the mediterranean views while drinking it. #TeamOpenWindows

La Goudale one of the many lovely beers from nord pas de calais.

Good morning Fedi ! My destination for today 🇸🇪 #Stockholm ... oehm no, 🇳🇴 #Narvik ... ah, well, no, both 🎉🎉🎉 ! My first train for today is the :kb_kurswagen: through carriage from 🇸🇪 #Lulea to the #OreRailway into the #ArcticCircle train with #TeamOpenWindows, an amazing panorama and of course : tasty brunch in the @diningcar 😋.

Sleepingly arrived in Karlsruhe in my most favorite night train line, the :nightjet: NJ 403. Due to the 2 h of delay it was no longer meaningful to sit in the train up to Fribourg-en-Brisgau or Offenbourg since at this time of the day there already are local trains over to France from Karlsruhe on. #TeamNightTrain #TeamOpenWindows
