Today’s live text updates

This all means I’m not going to be able to get to where the Wachtlbahn crosses the border near Kiefersfelden today. I’ll have to return next year sometime. So will be stuck on 449 borders a while more 😡 de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wachtlba

Ah. The previous incoming S Bahn to Brenner broke down at Gries. Just no one said so 🤷‍♂️

Brenner on a snowy day when trains are disrupted. Not a great joy! Live data doesn’t work (that S3 never arrived). Announcements only cover Italian trains, not Austrian ones. Waiting room is… sparse!

Found some quaint FS murals though

You can 🪨 your way all the way from Bologna to Brenner. But your back won’t thank you!

TGV M, I take back all the critique of the seats. The seats could be as bad as in a Hitachi Rock (ie 🪨hard)
