And Ireland? Or is the map just having a very specific interpretation of “Europe”?

There are no trains in Ireland T_T

Even the fucking Bus Eireann wouldn’t go all the way to Donegal back in the naughts because fuck driving all the way up there, right? Capitalism at its finest.

I don’t know, but that’d be the point, right? If it framed Western Europe we’d know that those countries don’t have any, but cutting them off just makes it ambiguous.

I see it more like “Ireland doesn’t have night trains, so let’s focus the map on the part of Europe where they have most of them”

Edit: the interactive version can be found here: https://back-on-track.eu/night-train-map/

night trains are for long distances. Can’t really do that on an island. Night trains are basically just sleeper trains, but those connections need more than 3-4 hours of distance to make sense
