How good or bad is reception along the track? Any 3G coverage at all?
However much I’d like to get away from my phone and laptop for a whole week: it is simply not an option. Having a small business to run, I should be able to communicate by phone or text a couple of times per day, and check mails every day.
I àm aware of the ‘time travel’, and enough of a realist not to expect 4G or high speed fiber in the middle of taiga nowhere… but I’d like to get some idea of what to expect anyway.
