Hello everyone! I am going to Berlin for this year's Innotrans, and I became a bit desperate trying to find a way to, and from, Berlin with luggage.
Right now, the plan is finalised.
In the early morning of September 18, I'll be flying on TAP Air Portugal from Porto to Paris - Orly. I'll be staying in Paris up until the end of the day. I'm probably going to take some time to check Paris - Chatelet Les Halles to see if this station would be appropriate for the future Sud Express.
By sunset, I'll take the ICE bound for Frankfurt Hbf, where I'll change to another ICE towards Hannover Hbf.
A two-hour wait leaves me in another ICE for Berlin Hbf, arriving very early in the morning of September 19.
I'll take the chance to visit one or two modellbahnshops, and as soon as I check in at the hostel, I'll take the afternoon to rest.
Between September 20 and 23, it's Innotrans time!
On the early night of September 23, I'll take the ICE back home, departing from Berlin Hbf towards Stuttgart Hbf.
I'll have another 2-hour change at Stuttgart to a TGV bound for Paris Est, where I'll arrive late in the morning.
At the end of tea time in Paris, I'll be boarding the TAP Air Portugal flight back to Porto in time to spend the Sunday resting at home before returning to work.
Wish me luck.
