#3: tram D; Homme de Fer -> Kehl Rathaus

domi, 2 months ago

aaand we are through the first border :blobcat3c:

we also got off at Kehl Hbf; Rathaus made sense for another connection, but we wouldn't make it

domi, 2 months ago

we have... an hour in Kehl, due to missing a connection T_T

just an iMac waiting for a train, nothing to see here #MARCHintosh

#4: SWE RB25 nach Offenburg; Kehl -> Appenweier

i rotated the tube downwards, so the plastic will be (hopefully) less strained. there's plenty of padding from the bottom, it should be fine :)

domi, 2 months ago

@ Appenweier; we had 4 minutes for a change; after getting to the correct platform, we saw that it's delayed 10 minutes, and I literally saw the screen update from 10 to 20 T_T

#5: RE2 nach Karlsruhe Hbf

@ Karlsruhe Hbf; S-Bahn in a bit, then schlafen~ rest of the way tomorrow :blobcat:

domi, 2 months ago

#6: S-Bahn nach [REDACTED]

thread shall resume tomorrow, stay tuned!

domi, 2 months ago

#7: S-Bahn nach Karlsruhe Hbf, arriving shortly

domi, 2 months ago

#8: IRE1 nach Stuttgart Hbf

we're going to Stuttgart, then a nice ~20mins to walk to Tief for another S-Bahn

DB has kinda weird routing today, I think that some trains got cancelled along the way... so I'll be manually routing through parts of the way, maybe we'll save some time along the way :blobcat3c:

Stuttgart Hbf -> Hbf Tief

we're surprised that the construction work on the Hbf actually progressed somehow! still had to take a massive detour. Also, IT FUKKEN WIMDY

#9: S5 nach Bietigheim-Bissingen

just 25mins on this one, and then an hour in an RE. Hopefully no delays on this route, we only have 5 minutes for a change

domi, 2 months ago

1min delayed... let's hope for the best

#10: RE8 nach Würzburg Hbf

we ALMOST got onto the wrong train :blobcatscared: i got confused for a second and didn't realize it was on Gleis 10, not 9. But we made it!!

#11: RE54 nach Bamberg

we got something to eat, and still had plenty of time for the change :blobcatbaguettehero: i will nom a baguette in a second

also damn this is a tight fit right here

#12: RE35 nach Hof Hbf

our previous train arrived on a different platform than planned... thanks to that, we didn't even have to take stairs - just in and out

it also started raining outside, which doesn't fill me with determination.

... aber ich bin kein zucker, es ist in ordnung :blobcat3c:

#13: RE3 nach Dresden Hbf

we only had 4 minutes to change from the previous regio to this one, and I really expected us to not make it; I usually see this RE on track 3 (IIRC) which is quite far from our track 4a; Fortunately, this time it was on 6b, and in Hof, 6 and 4 are the same platform!

domi, 2 months ago

from sad news: 2.5h on this train, and we currently lack a place to sit x.x

domi, 2 months ago

got to Dresden Hbf! We're spending a very exciting hour here, then heading towards Görlitz/Zgorzelec

domi, 2 months ago

#14: TLX RE1 nach Görlitz

We got onto the platform right as the train entered it, great timing!
