@zottmann.dev No other train to STHML today, I have to buy new tickets for tomorrow (€200 in addition to today’s €60), and of course I can’t cancel today’s hotel stay, either, so that’s another €200 down the drain. (Visiting Stockholm can be fucking expensive.)

@zottmann.dev There’re about 10 announcements that the train will leave at :33. There is 0 announcement the train has arrived.

At :28, we leave the waiting area — and see the train sit 30m down the track, closing doors, departing. (While there’s another fucking announcement that it’ll leave at :33.)

@zottmann.dev Train’s departure time is 12:11. We arrived 20 mins early, saw the notice, today’s departure is at 12:33. Okay. We check the plan (where will our carriage be, which section of the track?), it’ll be in D, which is right in front of the in-door waiting area. We’ll go there because it’s raining.
