It's finally happened! The Sofia to Istanbul (or Dimitrovgrad to Istanbul, if coming from Bucharest) sleeper train is finally bookable online, at the Turkish Railways website! 🥳
Finally, the overnight train between Instanbul & Sofia in both directions can be booked online with the TCDD ticketing website and app. Just the all in fare plus res, those travelling with InterRail will need to use more conventional options.

The Bucharest to Istanbul couchette car is coupled to the Sofia-Istanbul sleeper train at Dimitrovgrad. Have made up my berth, although the border is still to come.

I'm sure Sofia to Bucharest could previously be sold as a .pdf e-ticket with CFR Romanian Railways, but now only collect-at-a-Romanian-station is offered, useless for a one-way from Sofia or (coming from Istanbul) Dimitrovgrad to Bucharest. They've slid backwards!

Children in Dimitrovgrad appear to have higher rates of respiratory illnesses than those living in nearby cities, according to government health data. Some children in Dimitrovgrad regularly miss classes due to their illnesses.

Been feeling a bit rough today, but after a few days in Istanbul with the family tonight I’m catching the Istanbul-Sofia Express, which runs with the Istanbul-Bucharest couchette I took a few days ago as far as Dimitrovgrad. Travelling in a deluxe private cabin this time, let’s go!

Good morning from the Bulgarian-Turkish border which abruptly kicks off Day 5 of the #DIYOrientExpress - at Dimitrovgrad, the couchette joined with the Sofia portion & passport checks are done here over a 30 min period, so I stepped out for some fresh air and bumped into an old friend…
