David Conroy, an Irish filmmaker, saw a train while riding another one and decided to make a video with his phone. Clearly a different result than me with my shaky hand. 🤣😂
Absolutely impressed! 👏👏👏

Mainly travelling to/from Austria, Italy and France. Secondarily, Germany, the Czech Republic and Switzerland.
I am based in Austria, and my focus will be on long-distance travel, but I will offer all kinds of tips for local and regional trains, from ways to reduce prices to the most beautiful routes.

A few pictures from the preparations for the Monaco Grand Prix F1


A few pictures from Tarvisio Boscoverde (northeastern Italy, near the Austrian border).


NASA’s X-59 "Son of Concorde" first flight and first wheels-up flight.
A glimpse of Austria from the train.
From the Austrian ÖBB
An Italo train from Udine arriving in Venice Mestre in the direction of Napoli Centrale.

Yesterday, I took an InterCity from Ventimiglia to Milan. Nothing out of the ordinary, but nice as usual - pleasantly bland, I might say. I added a short video of the Italian Riviera, but the window was dusty on the outside.

A few pictures from Milano Centrale plus a few from Genoa (not the best angle but I had to get back on the train).


A video and a few pictures from the Verona Train Station, where I hopped on the Venice to Milan Frecciarossa.


I also catch the "Le Bar" from TGV INOUI in the Antibes Train Station.


A French TER (regional train) of the south region (Région Sud) from Ventimiglia, Italy, to Les Arcs Draguignan, in the Juan-Les-Pins Train Station. The second video is towards Cannes.
Between Innsbruck and Verona, we got the usual new Austrian RailJet that goes from Munich to Bologna/Venice. The seats make you think about the Business and First Class from Qatar Airways, it is what it is. But, the Quiet Zone, doesn't mean what you think it means when 50% is occupied by Italians. So, yeah, cheers Italy! 🥂
Just a few bad pictures, because the train was absolutely full, plus a video with the beautiful weather. 🤷 (I had to add a few pictures from Verona...)


A few days ago, we took the Vienna to Bregenz RailJet from ÖBB to reach Innsbruck. Due to some changes, we received a free upgrade to the 1st class, right next to the restaurant, with wonderful seats for longer journeys. It was too early for us to get crazy with the draft beer, since it was 6:30 in the morning, but it seemed we were the only ones with this specific opinion, tho we were also the only ones with a kid.
As a bonus, the weather was all over the place, which made the trip even nicer.

Some random regional trains from the Meidling Train Station of Vienna.

I managed to take a few photos before boarding another train with the EC/EN 463 train (EuroCity and EuroNight) operated by ÖBB (Austrian Railways) and MÁV (Hungarian Railways) that connects Salzburg Hbf in Austria to Budapest-Keleti in Hungary.

Testing the updated @primal with the German DB Intercityexpress 116 "Chiemgau" Graz to Munich via Villach and Salzburg.
Good thing I waited a little longer to write about the Espresso Riviera summer train (Rome, Italy, to Marseille, France) because it seems to be cancelled for now. It was announced to have two trains a week, instead of the usual one, but something happened related to the Ventimiglia border crossing. Anyways...
Next week I'll start a new train trip (Austria - Italy - France - Italy - Austria) and I'll take as many pictures and videos as I can. At least the first half is before the Easter holiday, so hopefully the trains will be emptier than usual, and I'll be able to picture the interiors too.
Let's test the new @primal with a beautiful Westbahn train (private Austrian operator) from the new Vienna - Villach route.
Starting today, you can get your SNCF tickets for the rest of the 2025/2026 season. 🗼🍾🥂
