Wishing for a ”make overseas travel boring again” movement. More… just ships, less floating casino hotels.
I feel positively ancient having travelled from Finland to England on this vessel in 1986. Photo Pieter_Inpijn, 1984: https://www.shipspotting.com/photos/2615775?page=1&perPage=8&navList=moreOfThisShip&imo=7333717&lid=334500

Another nice one, this is a larger timetable book in Finnish and Swedish from 1934, published by the Finnish Tourist Association. Apparently these were published up until the early 2000s. There are explanatory notes on page 4 in English, French and Esperanto(!).
One detail: the train Jyväskylä–Suolahti (which no longer runs) took 1 hour 20 minutes, only a few minutes slower than the bus that serves the route now. #history #timetables #landBasedTravel
This time table diagram from 1923 by the Finnish National Railways is so cute. I would be overjoyed if connections like this were restored. My personal Solarpunk utopia is ”what if pre-1950 but without the coal and with modern electronics”.
”Travelling routes to Finland”. #history #diagrams #landBasedTravel
