I spent most of Sunday exploring Braşov: a lovely city that’s nice and compact.

Yesterday morning, I caught the train to Bucharest. I was expecting an old electric loco & pick-and-mix assortment of carriages. A brand-new Alstom EMU that’s only just entered service turned up - good to see investment. Infrastructure upgrades are needed too: 2h43m to do 100miles!

From Bucharest, I flew to Vienna as it was cheaper to do that than fly to the UK. Hence…

VIENNA TO DEVON IN A DAY BY RAIL:

It is just after 7am in Austria. I just boarded ICE 228 at Wien Hbf. Assuming all goes to plan / DB plays ball, I will get to Devon before midnight BST. Wish me luck, please…

Crossed into Germany a moment ago spot on time - well done OBB, you did your bit. Checked the DB app to find - shock, horror - a delay is expected.

It could be worse. At least I’m not on the NightJet to Vienna that’s three and a half hours late…

Away from Passau 20 mins late. Curiously, there was a full passport / ID check by the police during the interlude.
