20. We set off for Ilmenau by railway. I read Liszt's account of "Der Fliegende Hollander" by the way. When we reached Neu Dietendorf, we had to get into the Post Wagen which turned out to be a disagreeable omnibus-like vehicle. At Arnstadt we were placed in a Beiwagen with two other passengers and had a pleasant view of the charming country all the way to Ilmenau. But the jolting vehicles and other dagrents had made us both ill and we could only crawl to our beds about 8 o'clock." Diary 1854-1861 24-25
