Plans

Baarde will take the train to Wissembourg, then cycle to the coordinates. He expects to arrive around 19:00.

Expedition

I left work early to take the 16:49 train, arrived at Wissembourg at 18:30, and reached the coordinates 30 minutes later. By now the last return train had already departed Wissembourg (You want a hourly train service? One that doesn’t stop at 7pm? In the country?! Where do you think you are? Germany?[1]). After recording proof, I continued southwards, and cycled to Haguenau. It rained a little bit on the way and I was quite wet by the time I arrived at the train station.

  1. Yes, there is a hourly train service to and from Wissembourg until 20:30. But it is operated by VRN (Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Neckar), not SNCF, and goes to Neustadt, not Strasbourg.
