๐ "Platform 17, ICE to Basel SBB, Karlsruhe, Hamburg Hbf, departure at 7:59" My summer holidays start as many times with a northbound ICE train. It was supposed to be less bonkers than my other rail trips, but there are many track works that have been planned afterwards, so we'll see. Get inspired by how I get myself into ๐๏ธ #StrandbyMode.

My photo app constantly reminds me of my three-month rail trip last summer. I travelled through 14 ๐ช๐บ European countries by train, bus and ferry to discover some #BlankSpots on my map. I'm sharing four of my favourite ๐ impressions again. I'm hoping it will soften my melancholy. ๐ฅฐ However, the next trip will come soon. ๐ https://mastodon.social/@larstransportworld/115401713304445301

New ๐ #rail diagram on larstransportmaps: #Ireland โ๏ธ I created this transport diagram, which captures the Irish rail network in the form of a custom-sized, 36ยฐ-angled structure. This allows for an axis-symmetrical representation of the main line along the east coast near Dublin, as well as the west-bound lines. The great variety in density throughout the island and the bilingual station names meant that mapping the Irish rail network was no trivial task. ๐ https://larstransportmaps.com/2026/06/1...

Finally, another updated diagram on my blog: the 2026 ๐ฉ๐ฐ #Denmark ๐ rail diagram with a slightly modified layout. It is one of my oldest diagrams. It is also the one in which the sea is most dominant. The islands allow for a little cheating in terms of size, in order to fit the differently dense rail network. ๐ https://larstransportmaps.com/rail-services-in-denmark-2026/

Grรผezi and Moin from Zurich! Another international ๐จ๐ญ๐ฉ๐ช rail trip awaits (or rather, awaited โ I'm always a late). We'll see what this thread will be about exactly, as there is less rail travel involved in the programme. One thing is certain though: I will be talking about the German legs that I normally skip reporting on. #AmRumReisen starts with the ICE 200 from Zurich to Hamburg. It's a comfortably uneventful trip with a maximum delay of six minutes.

Another updated diagram on larstransportmaps: the 2026 ๐ธ๐ช #Sweden ๐ #rail diagram The #Snรคlltรฅget service from Oslo to Malmรถ and the #Vy service from Oslo to รrebro and Stockholm have been added. Additionally, I have adjusted the colours of two train companies to make them easier to distinguish. ๐ https://larstransportmaps.com/rail-services-in-sweden-2026/

By now, all eleven of my country ๐ #train diagrams have been updated for 2026! Represented are: ๐ฆ๐น๐ง๐ช๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ท๐ฉ๐ช๐ฑ๐บ๐ณ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ด๐ธ๐ช๐จ๐ญ I really enjoy updating the diagrams; however, I'm also glad when I've finished. I have become quicker, but it still takes a lot of effort. I hope they help you plan your spring, summer or autumn holiday tour through central or northern ๐ช๐บ #Europe or whatever you need them for. ๐ ๐๏ธ You find the 2026 rail diagrams on my website: https://larstransportmaps.com/

Now online on larstransportmaps: the 2026 ๐ซ๐ฎ #Finland ๐ rail diagram I took the opportunity to clarify a few things on the diagram. This didnโt necessarily make the diagram look any better, but it is now more accurate. ๐ https://larstransportmaps.com/2026/04/05/rail-services-in-finland-2026/ (edited: linguistic adjustments to the diagram)
