i love getting up early because DB decided that my train should have negative delay lol

original departure time: 09:16

actual departure time: 08:11

:neobot_explode:

caught the early train (with the help of a friend of mine organising things so I could stay within reasonable distance of the central station and get to said station early):

let's hope the ICE bordrestaurant doesn't do a "ups, kaputt :3" again cuz i'd really like currywurst for lunch ngl

genuinely I will get mad if, after a friend confirmed that usually it's working, the bordrestaurant just Doesn't Work

i mean hey I think my train is supposed to be in Munich by 13:31, so I can just change to the alternative ICE in that station

getting asked by a German-speaking conductor if I speak German despite having greeted them with "Guten Morgen" is a bit weird but aye

I guess I can easily pass as Not German towards ÖBB staff lol

crosses the slovenian-austrian border

its carrier of choice: "You're currently not in Germany, [...]"

yeah no shit

visited a grocery store in austria that isn't spar:

boost this to scare Deutsche Telekom

apparently everything under 0°C is too cold for my hands with fingerless gloves

fuck

at least my body is still comfortably warm-ish at those cold temperatures lol

mods are asleep, post straße

visited a grocery store in austria that isn't spar:

interregio desiro ml
looks on PIS side displays
"S1 Spittal-Milst. See"

what

• spotted a train (the very Interregio ML) that rebooted
• spotted 5 ÖBB folks trying to board a locked-off TALENT 1 at a platform-less track

🥴

connects to WIFIonICE
DeltaChat: goes off as if it were a geiger counter

the family area table seats include chosen families, right?

the wall outlets are broken even on this train :neobot_scream_angry:​

ah yes, the TL;DR of "Good morning Jade, you got bahned!" lol

okay I'm so severely getting bahned right now that I'm now planning to take a Regional-Express and railjet train in place of the ICE lol
