Interrail trip 4 - the journey continues
Posted by grahame at 20:26, 23rd July 2026
 
Lisa and I have travelled through former East Germany and are now beyond.   No detailed log as I might do for UK journeys, but we have seen platform changes, delays, crowding, and a train terminated short and having to rush over tp another.  These things are not unique to the UK, and the number of incidents I could report is such that I can be sure they're not as unusual over here as might be wished either.

Would anyone care to hazard a guess - or perhaps more than a guess at any of these?   Bearing in mind they are a bit specialised, please feel free to identify several if you can

Hmmm ... 

Very kindly, grahame gave me a printed sheet of A4 detailing their itinerary for their 'grand tour' of Europe.

I'm still struggling - but will hopefully offer a couple of suggestions here, when I've mulled them over with a mug of coffee and slices of chocolate cake.
