@EU_Commission Where do I find information about the progress of these pilot projects? As the announcement dates from Jan 31, 2023, some progress should have been made.
@EU_Commission reliability is still a problem imho. We took a night train from Amsterdam to Zurich, but on the way back the sleeper cars were missing and everyone was just forced into coach. Not exactly making us want to risk it again in the future, or reassuring us.
@EU_Commission things are far worse over here in North America. I'm excited to be taking the train to and from my fall vacation with my wife and friends but on average, train travel isn't even an option for most people in #Canada, despite being a country built around rail.
Good luck! Keep being an example. #trains#publicTransportation
@EU_Commission more trains everywhere. Bring back the old connections, even with old trains, doesn't matter, just make them roll. If one can ride over night, speed doesn't matter.
About 20years ago, we used to have a nigth train connection between Geneva and Dax (West France) which brought us to surfing tripps easily. Bring it back please
@EU_Commission What about a super fast train connection on a London - Paris - Berlin - Prague - Vienna route? Am I the only one missing the Czech part?
@EU_Commission That's awesome news. Having to change trains is painful, especially on international routes, and this will help. One more step toward avoiding air travel, for sure.
Personally, I'm excited about that Venice - Paris option, which can give me a reason to connect in Venice between train and ferry on the way from Greece to France.
@EU_Commission Paris - Stuttgart - Munich - Salzburg - Vienna is a connection which still needs more regular "direct" trains - but I am looking forward to more Night trains. Or one day the InterConnect from Lisboa to Madrid to Paris to Brussels to Berlin to Warsaw to Riga (and if the Baltic tunnel is done to Helsinki)
@janeckhoff The rail bridge at Leer will re-open in 2024. But note these @EU_Commission projects are what the rail firms themselves sent in. I assume no one sent in Hamburg-Amsterdam…
@jon@EU_Commission sadly, the line didn’t seem to have had much importance in the last decades before the collision. Well, with the bridge rebuild completed, there will at least be the chance of an improved connection in the future 😄
@EU_Commission Connecting WHICH Europe? The central, same-as-always Europe?
More-than-neighbours Galicia & northern Portugal have been waiting for a proper train connection for over half a century (to say the least!) People north and south of the Minho river have learnt to expect nothing with this regard.
