Started the first leg of the journey to #LinuxPlumbers2024 with the train to Hamburg. The night train I was supposed to catch from there tonight has been cancelled, so I'll be spending the night and taking a day train tomorrow morning. Which may end up stranding me in Passau, but at least that's only a few hours from Vienna for when the tracks clear. Exciting!

Looks like the eastern route through the Czech Republic has the highest chance of success tomorrow, so decided to continue on to Berlin and spend the night there, then get an early train tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed that said train will actually be going... 😅

@toke @toke Is it caused by the weather or just standard train fuckery? Fingers crossed you make it without too much hassle!

Thanks! It's the weather: All trains between Vienna and Linz are cancelled due to the flooding, and the trains from Germany are either cancelled completely, or terminate in Passau. And since it's been raining all day today as well, I don't really trust that this will clear up during day tomorrow. So now I'm trying to go the other way around, since the Czech railways say their trains are still going in the west of the country...

Right, I did look at flights from Copenhagen this morning, despaired at how cheap they were, and then decided to stubbornly carry on with the trains. We'll see how well that turns out...

The Elbe definitely shows the aftermath of the rains - good thing the railway is a few metres above it! Very pretty morning here, though! 🤩

It worked! Made it successfully to Vienna, and only ~5 hours later than originally planned! 😃
