Germany are going to have to do the heavy lifting on this one, we can't even make one go half way up our country.
If you think that the German train system is any better, you're gonna have a bad time...
A match made in H..Hull/Hanover then! What's the German equivalent of leaves on the lines?
Weather (any kind)
The wrong kind of snow
Old joke: What are the 4 worst enemies of the German railway system? Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter.
But really it is just two: incompetent Management and spending cuts.
Days that end in 'y'. Or 'g' when you're in Deutschland.
I think, you don't know how fucked up the UK railway system is.
Well, then this is entire thing is doomed to fail.
Probably just some "lets put out a story that sounds like we're doing something good (but will never actually put any real time or effort into), rather than just imprisoning people for disliking genocide" kinda day...
They‘re only doing this so they can say „See? Trains never work.“ when they fail because neither side even tried.
