with stops in Frankfurt, Strasbourg and Karlsruhe.
Knowing DB, probably in that order.
You made me laugh in the middle of a pretty shitty day. Thank you.
Not bad for 8 hours in that case.
8 hours is incredibly fast to lay that much track.
You just have to have the right team.
Of course, you do have to watch out for quicksand.
They are going for that Japanese world record
7 hours of that spent in germany due to terrible infrastructure. On a good day
Europe really shot itself in the foot privatising all its former public services
With the DB involved, walking might be the quicker option. And the more reliable one.
When I looked it up here, it looks like it already only takes about 8 hours, granted with a transfer. And surprisingly inexpensive.
How much was the ticket since you already checked?
$40.50
More of this please! We should be able to travel across the whole continent in electric high speed and/or night trains. I want to be able to get from Lisbon to Helsinki, from Athens to London, comfortably, without ever having to take a flight.
Très bien, sehr gut!
OUI!!
How much time does it take now?
As far as I can tell from Google, the fastest route at the moment is about 9 hours. Not a huge difference, but still more than 10 percent faster.
To my knowledge this is with 10min connection mid way. This is a big risk to be stuck in the middle waiting for the next train so the big new here is the direct part, making it way more reliable.
Awesome!
