Spotted on a #CrossBorderRail crossing with Frecciarossa crossing the France Italy border. The screen announces to have passports ready in case the competent authorities wish to check them. More like authoritarian incompetence.

This engineer goes grocery shopping and manages to take all of this home on a scooter. Watch to the end! Obviously there should be a tram or a bus for his route, but in the USA those are not as abundant as they should be.

Nice little innovation to turn Metro turnstiles in Paris into electrical power generators. At scale this can bring about a nice additional reduction in emissions. Great to see!

Same for the Eurocity from Rotterdam to Bruxelles Midi - scheduled journey time was 91 minutes. We experienced a 20 minute delay outside Antwerpen Centraal and still ended up on time in Bruxelles

“Interesting spin on Italian railways: they designate some coaches as "happy" coaches, and the description implies that you can be a bit loud here (but not too much). A reversal of the "quiet coach" logic.” - @giuliomattioli.bsky.social

The new track between The Hague (den Haag HS platform 1) and Rotterdam, via Delft, is in operation. With the newly completed platforms at Delft - essentially doubling the station’s platforms - trains can now pass broken down or slower trains.

“The air is hot inside the packed tram. There are no passengers, though. Just dozens of heaters, standing in the aisles and on the seats, meant to simulate them. Instead of rushing through a city street, the tram is stationary in a weather tunnel in Vienna, far from Duisburg, where it's going.”

From memory the areas marked in red crosses are definitely no go… Metro trams run there. Entirely new tracks and new urban infrastructure built in this entire area in a major local revitalisation project just 4 or 5 years ago. Green boxes are unused ProRail land and crappy gravel unused car park
