Heading back from #ISIMIP meeting in Potsdam. Another excuse to post photos from window of #trainnotplane if you can. @eurostarjustin.bsky.social, maybe one day I'll be on your train!
Random picture taken from the train, somewhere between Aachen and Dusseldorf, red train carriages, two sets of rail tracks in front, white clouds with some blue sky peeking through.
First time visiting Berlin (via #ISIMIP meetings in Potsdam).
Able to plan early enough that #trainnotplane (if you can) is pretty competitive with flying. Quite a few train connections, almost didn't make the final one, but so far so good. As always, wifi patchy in the UK, better on continent ...

Relaxed change onto ICE173 departed Frankfurt bang on time having started in Berlin and going whole way to Interlaken Ost 😎 meaning an (8min…) change in Bern rather than Basel, then <2 hrs to go….Only disadvantage being that Kaffeemacher appears to be Basel-only phenomenon! ☕️ #TrainNotPlane

I am trying to reduce my flying to one work trip per year (made much easier by Europe's train network). In Asia just now, & saved time, money & CO2 taking the overnight train Beijing to Hong Kong with @aliceleibian.bsky.social @granthamlse.bsky.social. Love a night train! #trainnotplane if you can.
