I finally saw the new trains! I knew we had them, but since most of the trains are still the old ones, I hadn’t had a chance to try them.
The new trains are Skoda. The ride is smooth. They’re all connected from the inside, unlike the old trains. Each door has a screen, that shows where you are and how far you are from all the other stations in minutes. They’re quieter from the inside.


Samuel Vimes is a character from Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series. His shoes have thin soles and he can identify where he is by the feeling of the pavement on his feet. I have a similar feeling about where I am by the noise the trains make that changes depending on the tunnel. With these new trains, the noise is much lower and my internal GPS gets scrambled.
Guess the train rides will be smoother.
