Hippo 🔄🦛 return group (Amsterdam / Berlin / Prague, 2026年02月02日) #15

We are taking the European Sleeper night train no. 453 on 2026年02月02日 at 19:22 from Bruxelles Midi. Detailed schedule (You have to select the date yourself, I don't know if I can create a link leading to date)

I am at hackertrain2026@pokemon.ledoian.cz or on Matrix as @ledoian:dolujeme.eu
And I am also in the main HackerTrain chat at #hackertrain:kompot.si

How to join

• Subscribe to this note's notifications to get updates (in the sidebar on the right)
  Optionally, you can introduce yourself here :-)
  Buy the ticket at https://www.europeansleeper.eu/referral?referralCode=TRAIN2FOSDEM2026 (15% discount and we should be placed to neighbouring compartments)
  Join the chat
  When the train goes, find us (we'll probably have a plushie in the corridor) (and look here about which coach it is to ease the search :-) )

Disclaimer: if something here sounds off, I might have copied it from the trip to FOSDEM and forgot to change it – let me know! :-)

So, two messages from ES:

• There have been some technical difficulty with the booking link, but it should work now.
• Given the issue above, the "hacker defragmentation" (re-seating, so that hackers end up together/close) needs manual fixup – please send me your booking codes if you want to partake in the defragmentation (either DM @ledoian@dolujeme.eu on Matrix or send an email to fosdemtrain@pokemon.ledoian.cz, and also add the date of the trip to distinguish between the ES trains). European Sleeper promised to do their best, but no hard promises due to a lot of bookings.

The defragmentation should have happened. I am not entirely sure we all ended up in the same part, but our part will be (unless something will change) in carriage 21, compartment 10.

If anything changes, I'll try to let y'all know :-)

Enjoy FOSDEM and see you on the way back, hopefully!

The Hippo return journey was pretty much without problems!
