@jon for a service they run one day a year, you'd think they could at least clean the rolling stock...

@jon the most beautiful Train the found?

[kadse@chaos.social]

@jon something something how a typical french train looks and the best a belgian one ever has 🤪

[fiee@literatur.social]

@jon I guess you’ll explain why? Some local pilgrimage reasons?

[jon@gruene.social]

@fiee There's a Good Friday market in Bouzonville. That's the excuse to run the special train. But the point is also political - on the German side there is some will to do this more. The French side, not so much.

@jon I’m sure nobody else could have made this reservation, so he could only find you.
But he has a story to tell now.
