Complimentary catering on business classes in Turkish YHT trains recently got an overhaul with more a decent quality sandwich, brownie, sandwich. The previous was literally disgusting. @pglux.bsky.social @felixonrails.ch
La somme que les étudiants étrangers doivent montrer sur leur compte pour avoir un titre de séjour en France va fortement augmenter. Pour ceux qui survivent avec un job ça ne marche plus #bienvenueEnFrance
Interrail now valid on OUIGO services. On both high-speed and "classique" trains. @jonworth.eu @pglux.bsky.social
In 🇹🇷, I can catch a flight from Istanbul at 23:50 and return to Izmir. Or vice versa. Between all major cities it's like that Can you do this with TGV in France? NO! Those who call SNCF an "airline wannabe" To say that about SNCF is an unnecessary insult to some airlines.
Some pics from the DPRK's contemporary rail industry. They constructed a fairly modern subway train in 2025 and a "new" locomotive in 2020 They recently released a design of a modern EMU soon to be constructed "under the guidance of KJU" @pglux.bsky.social

BlaBlaCar bus will end its activities soon www.lefigaro.fr/flash-eco/av... @pglux.bsky.social
Avec des «pertes d’exploitation récurrentes et importantes», BlaBlaCar Bus va disparaître
Le roi du covoiturage a échoué dans le bus. Il va donc arrêter cette activité avec, à la clé, la suppression de 40 postes.

The last TGV train from Paris to Strasbourg leaves at 22:05 on Sunday evenings. The train is always full. It should be a standard for all lines in France!

In Hauts-De-France, one of the poorest regions in France, a large proportion of TER users are from the upper socioeconomic classes. www.radiofrance.fr/francebleu/p... @pglux.bsky.social @jonworth.eu

Today is cross border rail day for me... Strasbourg-Amsterdam (through TGV to Bruxelles then Eurocity Direct to Amsterdam) A shame that Trainline don't offer this itinerary. It was showing expensive connections either via Paris or complex (and also expensive) ones via Germany...
"Le Train" signed an agreement with SNCF Réseau to operate on Paris-Rennes and Paris-Bordeaux routes. It's interesting that an operator who announced they would run regional lines that don't serve Paris would do this. @pglux.bsky.social @jonworth.eu
It is now possible to book all SNCF TGV trains six months in advance of departure (compared to three months previously). @jonworth.eu @pglux.bsky.social www.bfmtv.com/economie/ent...
Il est désormais possible de réserver tous les TGV de la SNCF six mois avant son départ (contre trois jusqu'à présent)
La compagnie avait testé cette possibilité sur l'axe sud-est et met en avant l'intérêt des voyageurs.

Yesterday was the launch of the first Palombe bleu (Paris-Bayonne) night train from the LGV SEA line. This also made me think: Is France the only country where 💩 fall onto the tracks on high-speed train lines? 😅 @pglux.bsky.social
