Passengers: "oh no border checks today?" Me: "Yeah a working borderless Europe feels weird these days, huh"

Any bets why half a door handle is part of my night train conducting toolbag? 😅

OH: "the train doesn't have orient express ambitions, but i do"

From the makers of the sign “this door only opens on request”. SNCB presents the new super confusing sign on the M7: “this door will only open on an equal platform height”

Time to book a goodbye trip Paris-Wien and hand over my business card 😂

Out of context Infrabel

I’m not a fan of doing this but it is for a good cause. Hi, as you might know blahaj.social :blahaj: is a small vulunteer ran incomeless part of the fediverse :blobhaj_hearthug: We built it several years ago with recycled servers and network equipment. Our […] [Original post on blahaj.social]

As @sysadmin says a problem never comes alone... After a power outage in the blahaj.social server room it took our core switch with it... after long investigation we decided it was fully dead 😿 In order to get going quickly again we pulled out every crappy d-link switch in the house to built a […]

I have been told, definitive schedule to be confirmed, that this year’s Christmas train from Antwerpen to Aachen is going via Aachen West (Gr)! That’s a very rare opportunity to do the other border crossing between Belgium and Germany. More information to follow […] [Original post on zug.network]

At Schaarbeek station, the part, the contemporary and the future intercity services between Belgium and the Netherlands are on show. Upon a bright future for the train that connects us with our closest neighbour!

🥪 TRAXX+ICR in Liège-Guillemins. Once in a lifetime.

Today we are saying goodbye to the last series of classic railway carriages from NS ever. Today we are saying goodbye to the InterCity Rijtuigen from 1980-1986 😢 Only one week in service is remaining, so today an international farewell roundtrip to Belgium.

I remember when this app was just for reading books, now it is for keeping your reading goals…

SNCB: paint us a train for Puurs as art Artist: sure what trains you run? SNCB: mostly Desiro… yellow white blue … red doors Artist: got it! British Rail Class 350!

I love that my @delijn driver is vaping on the bus… while driving

[Personal announcement] Today I gave my resignation for a volunteer job i gave my life to for almost 10 years. With pain in my heart but for very good reasons 😢 If you run a charity and you need somebody with a passion for everything in IT contact me in 365 days

[dark humor, be warned] It is not allowed to be decapitated by hanging out of the window!

Brussel Centraal!

Couchette++ Like couchette but better and object oriented or something

Office View of the ES452

ECD is canceled so SNCB took revange and now the international train managers need to do SNCB trains 🤣

Today an NS/NMBS EuriCity branded I11 is being sent to Arlon! Arlon a new EuroCity destination!

Somebody in CW Mechelen had fun making a 3-carriage MS75… it has been standing there for weeks, the person probably was fired for doing train composition crimes

[Mimimimi, not serious] If a kid is screaming super loud and parents aren’t doing anything am I allowed to use my whistle to fight back? It isn’t in the handbook…

Turns out my De Lijn bus stop is served by SNCF

How cursed are this weekends line closures? Two @delijn busses covering 2h of De Lijn top service would be my only way home. Thoughts and prayers please

Ah Bonjour TiCo!

My Eurostar train manager is bored he wanted to announce the exact time we’d be in the tunnel and at which speed…

Controversial opinion according to railways: in an efficient managed stations this should never be the case…

[Horrorfilm targeting Bahnbubble] On 1 December 1990, Englishman Graham Fagg and Frenchman Philippe Cozette broke through the Channel tunnel. Unknowingly releasing a new railway company right from hell! One that will devour every high speed train on its route…. (Blood text appears) Eurostar […]

This one is straight out of an SNCF TER research facility!

[ph-] Network Rail tracks make me sick... literally... i have motion sickness only on british trains, and every time... all other countries i never have this (see my profession as proof)

People are making Ctrl Alt Deleaf jokes about Network Rail wile their Stoneblower is totally normal….

St Pancras to Luton to Bedford to Bletchley to London Euston... i wish there was a shorter way between these two stations...

The team of SNCB Innovations finally used their FIP tickets for Germany… and here we have euh 30 years after other railways did it… Brussel-Centraal and Brussels-Airport-Zaventem now no longer have zone A & B but a while A-Z zones for finding your train […] [Original post on blahaj.social]

Infrabel has some new fancy toys for delivery switches!

[Vague on purpose] I am glad something i spent days on, worrying many sleepless nights and lots of testing saved a life recently. Just sad the attitude towards me was respectless.

What is the definition of too hot? Infrabel: “if you touch it with the back of your hand and it hurts” Now that is a definition 🙃 (RDEI 354 2.1.3 for the fans)

Hmm the lot of I10s for sale moved from Oostende to Schaarbeek.... is somebody coming over to take them home?

:omya_too_loose_screw_couplers:

Okay... hear me out... UIC...but for trams

Ik ga via Breda!

Good morning ever.. EMMA: 3 rijtuigen in plaats van 6 Everybody but SNCB

[misinfo] Arriva announces they plan to do Groningen-Madrid-Porto in 2026.

The SNCB drinking game is you take a sip for every train you see graffitti free. It is pretty fun because you will never get to drink!

Adding to the train with online catering ordering is the ES453 😁 Since 1 minute ago as per railway tradition it had to be broken first

On Sunday 21 September, a return ticket between two Belgian train stations can be bought for only € 8! Thanks to car free Sunday, :sncb: is again offering the Mobility Ticket! The ticket is available on the website Belgianrail.be, the :sncb: app, ticket machines and (if they allow you to) at the […]
