DrRox:
Well it was nice to see the train to Galle. It was completely demolished in the tsunami in about 75. New cars were really nice. The old train was pretty dilapidated.

Rome flights
UL581 from Colombo to Rome, 0120 (11/28) - 0711 (11/28) (scheduled 0120-0715) - direct flight
DrRox:
The rail travel schedules from Orvieto, Italy to Luzern, Suisse are both interesting and surprising. All the early morning departures involve backtracking to Rome. Then to Milan to Chiazzo (from the released press photos) to Arth-Goldbau to Luzern.
There is one connection that leaves Orvieto about 12:30 pm that goes to Florence, then Milian, then Chiasso, then Arth-Goldbau then to Luzern. This particular connection arrives at approx. 10:20 pm. There are some screen shots from the preview that show a town square after sunset. So this connection could work with a HoO in Luzern upon arrival. The route info task of cleaning the hotel room in the AM. It would be interesting if teams had to clean their own rooms or production rooms....lol.

You spelled Swiss wrong.
Google shows a possible route via Orte and Milan, getting there at 8:44am. They can do tasks in Chiasso in daylight, and then proceed to Lucerne and do a night leg.

Suisse is what the Swiss call their country (like Swedes calling Sweden "Sverige")
