@EU_Commission Thank you for including the #AltText with the photos you used! Much appreciated! Could you (your communications department) *please* ask all of the other institutions to do the same on their social media, and especially on Mastodon!

@EU_Commission I am beside myself with excitement over this tbh!

@EU_Commission The EU should work on making rail more affordable, and preferably, standardized. Imagine having a ticket/subscription that you can use to travel the whole EU?

@EU_Commission *Signals towards Spain train connections in tears* Please fix that mess

@EU_Commission I would kill for some trains to Northern Europe and *gasp* Norway.

@EU_Commission great news! Any chance of improved (not involving minimum of 2 switches) connection between Amsterdam and Copenhagen?

@EU_Commission
This was also covered by @POLITICOEurope in their podcast EU Confidential, for anyone interested in a story about this:

@EU_Commission @harphat
This is great.
But it would be really, really great if you could get train operators to co-ordinate their services to make cross-border travel a mundane everyday convenience rather than an epic adventure. @jon

@EU_Commission A peace train would be even better! https://youtu.be/Sdq4T3iRV80

@EU_Commission

This is really great! But why are Madrid and Lisbon disconnected from central Europe?!

@EU_Commission What are you doing to ensure that train journeys are guaranteed zero covid?

@EU_Commission Why call it pilot projects? Many lines were piloted decades ago. Take this example as a benchmark, work on the pricing and make it a regular service… https://www.ameropa.de/bahn-erlebnisreisen/europa/venice-simplon-orient-express/ab-paris

@EU_Commission a night train between Hamburg and Oslo would be amazing 🤩

@EU_Commission Sadly, nothing from #Poland ;/

@EU_Commission best sung to the melody of “working on our night moves” from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Moves_(Bob_Seger_song)?wprov=sfti1 #nighttrain

@EU_Commission fucking flixtrain🫨

@EU_Commission Connecting WHICH Europe? The central, same-as-always Europe?
More-than-neighbours Galicia & northern Portugal have been waiting for a proper train connection for over half a century (to say the least!) People north and south of the Minho river have learnt to expect nothing with this regard.

@EU_Commission Rubbish, trains need to run frequently on all levels (local, regional, national and international).

Just focussing on trains between a handful of big cities is not going to help. 🥴

@EU_Commission excellent news!
I‘d be interested to know tho why there’s that gap between Hamburg and Amsterdam…
