It's been a wild couple of weeks in France, so when it got to a point when I had to go outside, I couldn't set my mind to find somewhere interesting. So I settled on nowhere special, just somewhere across the border with a train station and countryside not too far.

Lahr/Schwarzwald. Perfect.

Actually, there was a slight purpose to the trip given the time of day. I was hoping to see what was running on the Frankfurt-Milan "EuroCity Express". I'd seen an Italian train run it before, and this time it was a RABe 501 Giruno, the most recent Swiss high-speed train. I'd seen it before, but not caught a decent shot of it, so here it is!

The busy Karlsruhe-Basel main line sees a lot of traffic: higher speed like the ICE 4 at the very top and the ECE (I say higher because they can't travel at proper high speed because of everything else), regional trains, international freight... Among the inter-city trains out that morning was this Flixtrain, the same Flix who run buses across continental Europe. They have a few lines in Germany, using some old Inter-Regio carriages.

For an outing where I was just expecting to watch trains go by like a cow in a field, I dare say got more than I was banking for that morning, as a Baureihe 708.3 track inspector (Doktor Gelb?) and a brand new Mireo Smart regional set with no livery, either undergoing testing or out for delivery, made some surprise appearances.

Trying to drive on vacation with my youth-living-groupproject (don't know the proper englisch name, but in german it's Jugend-WG. Anyway...)

First, the train comes 1,5 hours to late. Then they tell us that all seat-reservations are cancelled because they have one Wagon less than planned. Also the AC is broken and it's 30°C

Also I got yelled at by a man who didn't want to accept that his reservation was cancelled, as if I had anything to do with that?! The audacity...

I'm having a great time /sarc

Uploading the MANY pictures I took on my trip to Eurofurence 27 in Hamburg last week.

Taking Flixtrain from Frankfurt West to Hamburg Central station. It only took 4-5 hours, not much slower than an ICE service of Deutsche Bahn, but for a fraction of the price. I payed just about 30 Euro both way. And those are express trains. I am sure that in some parts of the ride the speed went up to 200 km/h. Cons: The seats are narrow and not very comfortable. Also bring your own snacks and drinks, as the train does not have a restaurant car.

Just booked the train ticket for Monday. So I can see them one last time on this tour! (thanks to Deutsche Bahn I can't make the final show)

I'm slowly starting to get nervous and the anticipation is growing :D

Everyone probably already knows but I was away for the weekend and only just came back to the first four eps now having proper English subs. 🥳

I know, everyone's in their Heart Killers era right now but the first four (unfortunately very short) episodes of Winter Is Not the Death of Summer But the Birth of Spring were released today and the trailer for that looked really promising and refreshing. Prison BL but make it sweet!!

Edited: Aaaand there's no English subs yet. I'll update this post as soon as they are added. 🤞

Bin am überlegen für das Spiel gegen den KSC das ganze Wochenende in Karlsruhe zu verbringen, vielleicht alleine weil keiner aus meinem Umfeld kann. Worth it?

Der Bahnhof in Gotha sieht von Innen und Außen so aus, als hätte er in den letzten Tagen der DDR immens gelitten. Da hilft auch das Goethe-Zitat am Vorplatz nicht.

Aus der Reihe "Fernverkehrsbahnhöfe, an denen man nicht stranden möchte". Nein, das ist kein Lost Place. Hier halten zwei ICEs, 5 ICs, ein Flixtrain sowie drei Regionalbahnen.
