Crew change at Namur. The new train manager seems to believe the train goes to Luxembourg.
Luxembourg. The train from Brussels runs every hour, so naturally it’s a fifty minute wait for the connection to France.

The French train isn’t here yet and there are no arrivals scheduled from that direction. I guess SNCF is running it up empty so they can keep an inconvenient afternoon timetable gap?

Well, crap. “La circulation des trains entre Bettembourg et Thionville est perturbée suite à une panne technique de signalisation sur le réseau ferroviaire en France.” If I run, I can get the train to Koblenz.

Looks like the train to Nancy left two minutes late. Ah well. Never did Luxembourg – Trier, so I get to tick that off.
(This is why “on time” labels if a train is expected to be actually going on time are great rather than not saying anything which can be interpreted as “we don’t know yet”.)
(Also, have the train on the platform a little more than five minutes before departure.)
(Also, grumble.)
