Ron is off on one of his regular Germany jaunts.

Day 1 – Early start on 0557 train to St Pancras and easy going to Brussels and Cologne albeit arriving 10 late. Our connection train to Koblenz went from 15 late to on time and then with a last minute change of platform. We were lucky to catch it as as we came onto platform the announcer said the usual doors closing but we managed to get on. We were then held at Bonn for best part of 40 minutes due to signalling problems. On arrival at Koblenz our connecting train, an hour later than planned, was running 8 late and was like a rush hour tube train. Eventually reached hotel at 7pm instead of 5.45pm.

Day 2 – Overcast and chilly. This morning went to Boppard Museum before having coffee and cake in the market square. A lunch time break by the Rhine and then round trip on Hunsruck Mountain Railway to Emmenhausen, when another coffee and cake was taken.

DB is getting more and more like EasyJet…..  Pictures are posted more by subject rather than in chronological order….

We may as well start along the Rhine and keep the trains for later….
