Good Morning from Gare de l'Est, where #SNCF is taking me some of the way to #39c3 , hopefully (I'm glad my connection in Frankfurt was 35 mins initially...)

Hazy sunrise over the fields of Champagne on the way to #39c3. The train is quite empty so hopefully the border bullshit in Kehl doesn't delay us too much further. For now, including the expected border delay, SNCF still believes that this #TGV9561 will be in Karlsruhe/Mannheim/Frankfurt before the #ICE74 to Hamburg.
-
@olasd i mean, ICE74 will be delayed by the standard DB delay, so you will be fine, right?
(and every time I write something like this I think it goes against nature: Italian trains are late, German trains are supposed to work almost as well as Swiss train!)
-
@valhalla which is strongest, Murphy's Law or DB's tardiness? My experience says it can go either way!
-
@olasd truly two of the strongest forces in the universe! -
@olasd I love that they do not care enough to include it in their timetable, even though you lose at best 10-15 minutes every time
-
@mathieui @olasd I do wonder what they are doing border control for on expensive trains, when they don't really bother with doing border controls for cars, even when Switzerland is involved
(and at least between Italy and Switzerland they aren't really doing border controls on the cheap-ish local trains either)
