two minute transfers across half the station are so stressful lmaofortunately this is the end of the crazy backup plan, everything else should be smoothEC 153: Zürich HB – Lugano – Milano Lambrate? (– Rimini)@ Stadler SMILE (SBB 501 023 “Valais”)it’s quite comf, though we have a very loud child in our segment ;;not sure whether to get off at Lugano and transfer to the RE80, or stay on the train until Milano Lambrate and take the metro back to Centrale…..

they moved it to the upper platformsfor my local followers, the distance between Bologna Cle lower and upper platforms is kinda like Berlin Hbf between the S15 and the rest of S-Bahn, except there’s also a fucking parking lot in the way

@ptrc I'd say the distance is larger in Bologna.(But as opposed to Berlin I think lower/subterranean platforms are used for all high-speed traffic and upper/ground for all regular speed?)

@ptrc@social.treehouse.systems the only time we all get "free water" is when it is raining outside.. sadly the amount of rain you get depends on where you are on this damn planet

@Natsura i mean, some cities can do this properly; Basel has a water fountain on every corner, even in France the predatory SNCF is mounting water bottle refill points, but so far italians seem the least prepared for a heatwave despite being more south

@ptrc I think EU passenger rights force them to reimburse you if they did not themselves offer you assistance with getting to the destination? (Assuming your next train is ÖBB too; not sure how things work between different operators when on interrail; they definitely don't work between different operators when on split regular tickets.)
