@pony I would if I were paying But the department doesn't care that much about 15 zl (I need to be frugal, but this difference is not really much), so y'know, I won't risk a fine for that
@pony I mean, if, let's say, I were in the same situation e.g. going to Brno via Bohumin in 2023, I would have probably just skip the crossing ticket altogether and I would have just bought a ticket from Katowice to Chalupki and then a ticket for R8 from Bohumin
@naruciakk not sure about that, especially if it's one of those weird trains that terminate at Bohumin, there is no CD crew and the PKP IC one sweeps the trains before to get everyone off it
However, it's probably not cheaper than Gdansk-Miedzylesie with my discount, and for Czechia I need to buy the whole trip on a single ticket anyway, as I'm planning to catch some pretty short train changes (to arrive in Wien as soon as possible), thus I need to start my ticket to Vienna at least in Letohrad (still on the same BE)
@jeder@naruciakk so that's 2 minutes there, then someone argues for ceska trebova, kolin, zabreh na morave or svitavy or whatever and at the end of the day, it's +20m on the entire trip or worse
@pony@jeder I agree with pony here, especially given the fact that as a Gdansk-Bydgoszcz-Poznan-Wroclaw route enjoyer, I have the same issue there. Fortunately now BE have the lowest number of stops ever on that route (on Gdansk-Poznan they stop like Gedania and on Poznan-Wroclaw only in Leszno, which should be the standard for this route as a whole) and I hope it's gonna stay that way. 4:20 Gdansk Gl-Wroclaw Gl., that a treat
@naruciakk@jeder but what for, there is the rychlik for local connections and wroclaw - vienna with the usti transfer is inherently stupid, that should be just another layer via opole-ostrava-breclav, if we finally somehow realized we can do trains or something
@naruciakk@jeder arguable even the baltic express there is morally wrong and should run via koniggratz and nachod, when someone finally drags their ass to build a workable railway
@jeder@naruciakk well ok they project the new line more to the north, instead of the nachod valley, but the wider point is that it's much more logical connection and koniggratz is pretty underserved as it stand now, unlike usti
