Okay, so it arrives in Hamburg at 13h26 which is quite early for the sleeper train leaving around 22h00. Gives you enough time to go to Miniatur Wunderland though

Oh no! It's still on my mantlepiece every christmas

Ben van plan de Simplon Orient Express route te rijden met wat uitstapjes in de Balkan. Eenmaal in Istanbul is het plan om door te gaan tot de grens met Georgië, totaal zo'n maand. Terugreis ook per trein maar dan door Roemenië en Tsjechië.

Gekocht! Twijfelde tussen 1 maand of 2 maanden maar voor maar €70 extra vond ik het waard om toch maar de volle 2 maanden te nemen. Nog nooit ge-interraild, komende September & Oktober toch maar eens van plan.

I think investing in an underground station now would be the best decision for Schiphol and Amsterdam. This turnback requires unnecessary time and, if line 52 isn't automated, requires the driver to switch cabs.

I also believe a decision is yet to be made on the routing.

I want to rectify this, apparently NS started procuring these new trains in 2022 under the name "Sprinter 5th Generation (S5G)". I don't know how that flew under my radar

No one (that I know) knew NS was procuring a new train besides the DDNG. It seems like this was done without a tender.

That's annoying. Do you have access to the full version of copilot for VSCode?
