People going to the North: Those are rookie numbers.
Now imagine this, but at least 30 mins and every single train.
Sincerely, your German neighbours
We should send trains to fetch death. We should discover the cure for mortality.
Goal: 1 million residents by 2030.

Get up earlier?
r.i.p
You are lucky, try once a bus… 🙁
That’s ok , 10-15 min delay .. one needs to always be half an hour in advance
🤣💀
Yo bro you go to LMA??
Oh another person from bettembourg that has the same problems as me every f***ing day! It was the same story yesterday ffs.
nobody to say “but it’s free”? Good. Because it does not matter how free it is when it’s this bad (I mean – in general, not this specific example). I don’t admire the Lux system. I do admire the Swiss and Japanese. Those should be the examples to follow, not Luxembourg. Making it free is mostly a PR stunt. It does make it easier for the lower paid people. But they too should have a good transport system.
And please, don’t say “the system works fine in xx%”. That’s not the point, at least not for those missing work/school during rush hour.
What, 10 mins delays? Unheard of!
I feel spoilt and lucky being in Lux when it comes to travel. Everything is so dot on time that you miss the delays which are so common in every other country!
It’s not a delay, it’s a special time operation.
tbh it’s mind boggling that were having these problems with tiny usage when countries like Japan have trains arriving within the minute it was supposed to arrive even in cross country trips. And a single city like Tokyo has over 40 million passengers a day and practically no delays… And then in Germany right now everything is constantly delayed…
Buses are obviously a harder problem to fix, not impossible just harder, since they share the roads but trains?
Jesus, trains is just planning and sticking to that plan. Unless something out of the ordinary happens (accidents, unexpected object of the track…) there shouldn’t be delays, it’s not like you’re going to find unexpected traffic every single day or you couldn’t reach the expected speed…
Leave on time, do the planned speeds, arrive on time. Trains can even be fully automated and easily, literally the easiest form of transport to fully automate.
That station is the worst when it comes to keeping on time, never gotten home on time when I stop there to take the train back from school
I hope this won’t be an unpopular comment, but back in 2016 I’ve done the transiberian journey, Moscow – Vladivostok, with multiple stops along the journey. I don’t even remember how many thousands KMs, hours and trains I changed and not a single time the train would be late. Quite appealing in a country where pretty much nothing else was working properly.
It’s quicker to walk from Bettembourg to Luxembourg atm, or at least to Cloche d’Or. On the rare day I drive to work I see a number of people in business attire walking down the main road towards Kockelscheuer. It’s not helped by some trains saying they stop at Howald but they actually do not, then they stop at Neuburg phantom station for 20 minutes.
“Why don’t you take the public transport? It’s free and you economise on the high gas prices”
Well yeah, I don’t want to get fired for coming late every morning or to be 2 hours earlier at work.
