Quote: El Barbudo "I always enjoy your railway posts.
When we went by sleeper to Perpignan, I think we were in a four-berth and were tucked-up in bed before the others arrived and, on the return journey, we just paid a few francs to freshen-up in the shower room at the station in Paris.
I do agree with your recommendation to use DB's timetables, in the past I have found that, on occasion, they were more up to date than thetrainline.com even for some British services.
I'm not a train freak myself but I did visit Strand / Aldwych (disused) underground station last weekend ... fascinating it was.'"
If it keeps me off the planes ... Then I'm happy !
