Was an opportunity missed at the signal protecting the crossover to warn the driver of the true obstruction ahead due to the signal being approach controlled, or is that information we do not know yet?

Moderator note: Split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/report-of-collision-bedford-elstow-19-06-26.303537/ Should the responsibility for warning about speed restrictions ahead be separated from the system which warns that there is another train ahead?

There is an ICE at just gone midnight at a NightJet at midnight thirty, from Hannover, so I would take this option given you wouldn't be stranded.

Precisely. Agreed, I think? Either OAO (Eurostar) or Takt (NL, AT, LU). Not both. (Regarding any OAO in the countries mentioned - I think they would be better off without it, OR it's an international service that operates "outside" of the Takt system.) If the current system continues, we will...

Open Access and takt are not compatible. Pick one.

Is there a best Android app for booking tickets? My requirements are: * Native app, not web-based * No booking fee * Google wallet integration

If the second, or a future additional, Leipzig train leaves after 17:00, this will make London to Katowice possible in one day, at 15 hours or so.

So two main courses: vegan or fish. Gosh! Why bother?

Of those two the curry is the only one that is a meal (not a sandwich), so it's unclear to me what the chef in the attached video actually does once breakfast is finished.

The first class Dine menu currently published online only has two rest-of-day hot options, the Railway Curry and BBQ Chicken Croque, so I don't think one is missing much

A lot of urgency and staff to prevent the self-local-door-deboarding, but not enough urgency and staff to permit managed-local-door-deboarding - peculiar

How easy was it acquiring the taxi from the Greek side?

Well, the results. The Eurostar terminated in p4/p6 at Brussels, making for an easy connection. We chose option 5, a new ticket via Zürich, and this worked perfectly, and was a relaxed trip. It was an enjoyable journey. In the end, option 2 would've worked out with ICE1109 being held for 2...

True, but after 23h vs before 21h after a 6am start is a little miserable which makes 2 or 5 more appealing. Separately, my (few) experiences of DB during disruption have been positive previously, and I'm surprised that 1 is on the table from DB's side.

Thanks all for your helpful advice and insight. As far as I can see, my options are: Continue on ICE 597 to Munich as booked, knowing the connection with RJ287 to Innsbruck won't be made, arrive St Anton +2:20. Claim 50% compensation. Possibility: guaranteed, on time arrival: 0% Somehow...
