A final visit to Donostia-Amaro Station in its current form to change trains. It is being replaced next month with an underground through station and two new stations on the route east. Apartments will be built on the site of the platforms and the throat.

'Twas the OUIGO from Paris to Hendaye, and we arrived early enough that a connection was possible with the Euskotren service to Bilbao it was scheduled to miss (OUIGO ETA 1704, Euskotren ETD 1703) rather than the next one an hour later. Feels good. 💪🏻🎉💃 #Winning #CrossBorderRail

Tops's top tip: if you're travelling from #Harrogate Station and fancy a beer beforehand then eschew the Harrogate Tap by the station itself and head for Husk over the road. Only a minute further and a superior experience.

That seemed like one of the noisiest DMUs I've been on in a long time. Further down the platform there was a similar unit painted in the old "Southwest Airlines" livery.
