I can confirm the Wunderline chocolate bar from #ConnectingEuropeDays tastes sweeter than the #CrossBorderRail it is promoting!

@jon I haven't really got the opportunity to ride on this route even during my Erasmus in Groningen a year ago. However, I'm still surprised on how this route isn't double tracked and electrified. It was the best moment to do so.

But I saw also that 2 stations are to open as well, after the reopening

@ThibaultLapers they’re doing the absolute minimum. And then selling it as a major step forward - that it isn’t. The re-opening is better than nothing but isn’t nearly enough.

@jon cursory search reveals there are no through connections. is that it?

@6d03 The bridge is still broken. But even when the bridge is fixed the connection will be crap because it's a single track diesel line Dutch side, and a slow, overloaded, single track electric line German side.

@jon At least the replacement bridge is supposed to be finished this year, if DB can be believed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friesenbr%C3%BCcke

@6d03 Yes, the people who gave me the chocolate bar confirmed that. And having been there last year I reckon it's possible.
