We will pick it up (with Nox) in 2029-2030.

The demand is stable and strong enough to run a daily night train

Taking the #Nightjet Berlin - Paris for the last time probably as this service will be cancelled on December 14th due to a lack of funding on the French side.

I’m really going to miss this… let’s enjoy one last time :(

The Eastbound is leaving LA at 10:00PM so they have enough time to service the train

Something I will never understand about the #Amtrak #SunsetLimited WB

The planned arrival of 04:55AM is brutal (been there) Amtrak employees will wake you up at 04:00AM and kick you in LA?

Why not waiting in Palm Springs siding for 2-3 hours and arrive at a normal hour in LA ?
