Up to now, I've avoided Sud de France due to its difficult connection, aided by the fact that only the morning TGV's to/from Barcelona stop there.

The contournement of Nîmes and Montpellier makes no difference to the scheduled journey time from Paris to Barcelona because of an 18 min stop in SdF

Lijkt waarschijnlijk, want de klasse-upgrade weekend is sinds kort ook niet meer te koop op vrijdagavond (online of in de app, heb zelf niet gekeken op een automaat).

We also went to Glenfinnan, where many had found the walk towards the viaduct - famous because of Harry Potter

The UK is fabulously walk-friendly, with many publicly accessible paths and hikes. Those around the Lake District are also surprisingly well connected by public transport

We really enjoyed the complimentary food (& drinks!) first class on some UK trains; especially Avanti and LNER

In the same category: A stay in Alp Grüm (2.091 m above sea level), located on the Bernina railway, is even more spectacular and is actually considerably cheaper. However, Corrour is nonetheless a worthy competitor.

It's the UK's highest altitude mainline railway station, at 408 metres above sea level. While that might not sound impressive, the highest altitude Dutch mainline station is Kerkrade Centrum at just 149 metres.

A Vilvorde il y avait aussi un bout 24 ans apres la suppresion du tram 58 maps.app.goo.gl/zxdxMU7g6pHH...

Il reste encore des restes du tram 56 sur l'ancienne route vers Erasme: maps.app.goo.gl/vFmJfVumA9kF...

Waar in de trein kan je dit kopen? Ik wil wel zo'n tasje maar ga alleen het stukje Den Haag-Aken mee 😁

*Eastern end of the country!

Within Andorra, there is a frequent bus network: we took the L4 line to the Western end of the country in Pas de la Casa.
The bus takes about an hour and runs every 20 minutes.

Tickets cost €4.80 ans can be bought on board (only cash) or at the bus station. Local residents travel with a free pass.

From Lleida, frequent buses run to Andorra la Vella, taking about 2h15 and costing €25. This route is served both by Hife (a few buses a day) and by Andbus (departures every two hours)

Visited Pamplona and Lleida, checking off two provinces where I hadn't been before. I've now been to 47 out of the 52 provinces & autonomous cities.

Still much more to see in many Spanish provinces though

We'd travelled around Spain a bit before

Frequencies will increase from 29 June 2025, when Transdev takes over the PSO service, adding 14 return trips on this route. That includes a daily 20:57 train to Nice (arr. 23:37) zou.maregionsud.fr/la-ligne-de-...
