For my first rail adventure of 2022, I've taken inspiration from #EuropeanYearOfRail & #ConnectingEUexpress last year (in all its + & - s) - A "3 Days, 3 Border Stations" trip highlighting international rail connectivity between Spain & France. #3Days3BorderStations
Thanks @estelaparicio and Suresh Chithathur Raman from @IRBBarcelona for their managing of @evomet_itn and for their very important support in the organization of the event. Thanks to @CedricBlanpain for his valuable support with the event and during my ongoing PhD journey.

@jonworth@sudostbahn One of my absolute favorite trains! But did you notice a strange scent especially in the first class? I've been on several of these trainsets across all 3 routes and this unique smell was uniform in all of them.. wonder if its the seats
@jonworth@AndyBTravels@nonstopeurotrip The tram (which abdruptly ends after crossing the river) is quite a long walk from the station, alongside a busy motorway with no actual sidewalk and crossings near the end - I don't recommend.
One for @jonworth - work apparently in progress by ADIF on standard gauge connection to Irun for cross border rail with France (and posterior connection to high speed line to Madrid under construction)

I've been going on about India for the last week on Twitter but this is getting more urgent by the moment.
After a brutal heatwave in April - mid SPRING for them - things are set to get much much worse. Temperatures are forecast for 46-49°C next week.
@AndyBTravels The suburban cercanías line C9 from Madrid to Cotos, especially in the winter months. Unfortunately stopped during the pandemic and yet to re-start service (hopefully soon 🤞) https://t.co/2AtRlPWlLl
