When I have the opportunity, I like to indulge in low-speed #train travel around #Europe accompanied by a Peruvian finger puppet which ruins what would otherwise be perfectly good travel pictures. linktr.ee/siegeavecvue
One of the most imposing buildings in Bucharest is the massive Palace of Parliament building. Find out about visiting on my new #travelblog post. www.rjontour.com/palace-of-pa... #romania #traveltuesday

For those who only reluctantly leave their private jet at home, the Executive Class seats on Trenitalia's Frecciarossa trains are like thrones. On a Lyon-Saint-Exupéry to Paris train.
My 4 day Interail pass, got me from Rome to Wakefield in 3 days. Seems a waste to travel back to London in 2hrs. So I’m heading Wakefield to London - via Penzance! On the 10:14 1V52 to Plymouth, then GWR to PNZ & 21:15 sleeper tonight.... 📍Follow live route: www.polarsteps.com/ChristopherO...
🇳🇱 Goedemorgen Netherlands. Great overnight journey across Germany, woken on bouncy track a couple of times. Great to have a shower in the cabin. Then breakfast with scrambled eggs. On time arrival into Amsterdam 09:49 expected. Fab trip ÖBB! 🇦🇹
My childhood memories include getting IC225s all the way down the ECML, so to sample one north of York for the first time since I was 16 was amazing, the memories certainly came back for sure! King Edward Bridge down, Royal Border Bridge next? Maybe one day
Im 🇦🇹 @diningcar.at hat diese Woche der kulinarische Frühling begonnen. Neu im Angebot: Das Eierspeis-Frühstück - im IC 558 am Semmering für Frühaufsteher auf 🇨🇭 Porzellan serviert.
Some photos from Zagreb 🇭🇷 Had a great time exploring this city! 😁
On day three of my trip to #Utrecht, I went to the #Spoorwegmuseum and, inevitably, had beer. https://www.siegeavecvue.eu/twingomania-day-three-utrecht/

In which I find God in a library and the King’s Bollocks in a bar.

Apparently, #travel should have a purpose, so I decided to travel on the #train to buy a car (unsuccessfully, so far). 1,200km, one feral child, a Hilfiker clock sighting, street art in Antwerp, and a #Flixbus. https://www.siegeavecvue.eu/twingomania-day-one-bordeaux-utrecht/
Twingomania, day one: Bordeaux - Utrecht
My descent into super-mini madness

A Norwegian Stadler train continues my journey north and made time for awander around the nice town of Trollhättan. Featuring a very icy river! 🇸🇪
Avnede ✅ Another nice little request stop with views over snow covered fields! Really liking this little line!
Views from the train between Carlisle and Glasgow
'Tis done! First draft of the Seat 61 guide to taking train & ferry to visit Orkney now published, www.seat61.com/places-of-in.... Comments welcome - I'll review/revise it tomorrow when I've had a break from it!
I wrote an experimental #Substack #travel post, but this links to the @write.as version. write.as/siegeavecvue... #Interrail #TrainsNotPlanes #Córdoba #Mezquita
I, for one, am entirely comfortable that I'm travelling through a Yellow weather alert for rain on a train line that I hope to return by tonight, which appears to be less than 2m above a saturated floodplain
Here's the long-threatened "doing the sums" post from my recent #Interrail adventure. I apologise if it inadvertently contains useful #travel advice. www.siegeavecvue.eu/winterrail-d... #TrainsNotPlanes
Winterrail: doing the sums
Financially responsible rail hedonism, with receipts.

There is no more, you'll be pleased to know -- apart from the "sums" post which I'll do later. #Travel home from #Donostia on the #train. https://www.siegeavecvue.eu/going-home-donostia-perigueux/

Bonus smells and bells, and the world's worst boy band.
