Never seen this before. At first I was puzzled, didn't assume this was far away.
Something like fireworks above our village, or perhaps a big crane built today without me noticing.
But because the train moved towards me I realised it was further up. Oh yes, a new batch of satellites!
They "disappeared" somewhere above me, due to the sunlight not reaching them anymore.
Obviously they were still "low".

At home I learned that this was batch 7-10, launched on 14 January 2024, with 22 satellites.
With the 23 on 15 January (7-11) Starlink has brought 5,738 internet satellites up in the sky.

PS: the satellites will not remain in a train, but will all spread over a circle around the earth.
There are several different websites where you can see these satellites,
even when you can expect the next flyby for your place. E.g. https://www.heavens-above.com/.
