Last night, there was something wrong with the #Hiawatha train set when I took the Hiawatha from Chicago to Milwaukee, so they had us on the #Borealis train set (a two-level train with a lot more legroom). I had never been on that second platform before. #Trains #Milwaukee
I think train announcements should drop "service" and say "train" instead. Be proud of what your are.

I think my traveling is cursed 😭
Whenever I take a longer trip by train and/or bus, something goes wrong or there is a sudden delay.
My wife can take the exact same connection, and everything goes smoothly.
It started when I wanted to move to Sweden almost 20 years ago and the bus never showed up, continued with getting stranded in Lahti (Finland) at 2 in the morning and needing to take a taxi for 2h with two other travellers, and currently I'm on my way to #Stockholm via #snalltaget and we're stuck in Malmö because they suddenly needed to get rid of two train cars.

#Wifi on a #train is like the internet in 1994 with a 14k modem

fun fact: It's faster to drive to Ottawa from Vancouver than take the train (also alot cheaper for more than 1 person) 🙄 North America is so stoopid #stupid #NorthAmericaIsStupid #Trains
For fun if you're interested: Here's a rough breakdown of options to get one or two or 4 people across Canada and back from Port Alberni, BC on Vancouver Island to Ottawa Ontario in as quick and cheap as possible.
This is a 9900km round trip, so it's not like it's a hop skip jump :)
