Having giving up online, downloaded #eurostar app to IPhone. Prices for same trains/dates twice the price of web?!?

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Found Standard Premier at £79.50 on #Eurostar.com, on payment page price jumped to £94.50! Diff trains/dates. Gave up in frustration! #angry

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

But I can forgive #ICEtrains not always being on time, as when you're on board they're great! http://t.co/boDTzcVnJB

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Revelation on recent #InterRail trip was that German #ICETrains consistently started their journeys 2-3 min late for no obvious reason.

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Historian #DominicSandbrook made a rare error. German trains aren't much more likely to be on time than UK trains. http://t.co/6RQzcBSUy4

And here's a preview of the 100s of images European stations - coming to TBT soon #InterRail https://t.co/wWpIXEVyhA

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Yesterday was reading about exciting plans for direct London - Amsterdam/Frankfurt/Stuttgart trains. The book was publised in 1986!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Previews of #Interrail scenic journey pics, soon to be added to new look TBT are on facebook https://t.co/5foEdOQCTG

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Report in #ModernRailways suggests some of the money will go to massive new tunnels under the alps and a rail tunnel from Denmark to Germany

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Rail routes linking virtually all of the the E.U.s 28 member states are to receive a share of €26billion of funding by 2020!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Will also still be counting down the days, eagerly awaiting the launch of http://t.co/ETpcjgWH0h so that I can multiple links to it!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Yes I know they've stopped publishing it, but am curious & perfect timing IF it does arrive. Can then spend the 'holidays' updating TBT!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Have ordered the winter edition of the Thomas Cook Rail Timetable 13/14 from Amazon. Will be dispatched Dec 17th? http://t.co/WdjKrwQcog

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

@qdomenico Reports suggest UK border control won't staff Dutch stations, but travellers must go through customs prior to departing for UK?

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Correcting 1 character = a series of tweets looking odd. To clarify the #HelsingborgToHelsingor ferry is a fab alternative to #OresundBridge

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

The #OresundBridge by train has a wow factor, but the views from the #HelisingborgToHelsingor ferry are also fab!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

The interior of #HelsingorStation lived up to the view from the outside. An unexpected delight!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

On arriving in #Helsingor by ferry, at first I couldn't work out whether this was actually the station.

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Connecting from train to ferry at #Helsingborg station couldn't be easier, and in bad weather you'll stay dry!

[Simon@ThereByTrain @therebytrain]

Of the 30 mins by train from #CopenhagenToMalmo, you're only on the bridge for four #greatcontinentalrailwayjourneys
