So... it's that time of year again, I'm off on a Moderately Sized Adventureā¢. Train no.1 is from East Croydon to London Bridge. Why doesn't Thameslink run this early on a Sunday? (I travelled here last night as a positioning move.)

I should explain why this Adventure is only Moderately Sized... unlike previous years, I will be spending quite a lot of time broadly stationary, because Reasons. I'll be taking no further questions on this topic your honour š

Good morning from South East Austria! Slept well, train bang on time. Woke up to this - this is what the sleeper is all about

Is your catenary stranding and at risk of failure? Why not just clamp another piece of catenary to it and get on with your day? What could possibly go wrong?

Trains #8, 9 and 10 are trams as I explore Zagreb. Frequent, clean, safe, cheap. As usual, navigating this small European city is super easy with a combination of Google maps and the local tram app. Why can't the UK do more of this?** This is a rhetorical question, I know why. And it's all so stupid

Trains #11 and #12 are more trams. Train #13 is this handsome, modern EMU from Zagreb to Volinja (and return to Sunja) pictured here at Volinja. I'd have liked to have gone further and crossed the border into Bosnia-Herzegovina, but guess what? There aren't any trains. No #crossborderrail for me @jon. The onward line across the river Una to Bosnia is on the left beyond the train.

Train #14 is... a bus! š¤¦ Not sure why, given we recently passed over the open railway, but this will take me from Sunja on to Sisak Caprag.
