Let the madness begin!

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?
Holy mother of peace and quiet! Remind me to never move here!

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.)

Maybe I can go from Saarbrücken to Strasbourg? Oh, there is a direct train!
It leaves two minutes before the train from Trier arrives.
Go figure.

Going from Trier to Saarbrücken, you want to sit on the right side with a view of the river Saar. But the train was too busy for that. Turns out things get really interesting on the left side once you get closer to Saarbrücken – all the old steel mills and assorted industry and attached railway infrastructure make for a lot to see.
