wait how do the switches work? I don't think i've ever seen a cog railway with switches before!

I have travelled on that line.

Go to Mosow and Kiev. Those station are like an whole museum in itself.

Frick yeah! Welcome back!

Die Wuppertaler Schwebebahn ist einzigartig auf der Welt von Eugen Langen, alle andere die es nachahmen wollen scheitern kläglich

I do prefer the Dutch trains, as they are cleaner and more efficient, but they are substantially more expensive than they are in Germany. As someone from the States, I find both Germany and the Netherlands to be more like first world countries by comparison to where I grew up. This is largely due to the public transportation. I do wish German cities would do something similar to what Utrecht did and turn a large motorway into a canal, expand pedestrian and bike paths, and discourage driving as much as possible. But Germans are in love with cars. I don't see this ever happening here.

The one near Wetzlar / Asslar is the only intersection that is fully built in this shape in all of Germany. Shame such a big build is just standing around in the middle of nowhere. I use it from time to time. Right now the nearby B49 is in need of modernization and it's in discussion to connect to the autobahn do maybe it will finally find proper use

Man this looks so weird haha.

Bro wie verzint er zown lange bus 🤣

I dont know why the A98 is actually caled the A98 but its signed as a K Motorway its not acutally a Autobahn.

We moan about our railways in England, but the German ones are nothing great, even if the trains look nice, and I have heard Deutsche Bahn have a bad reputation for cancellations, strikes and delays. Actually Scot Rail in Scotland are probably the best I've used: clean, modern, not too expensive and on time.

Those communist metro carriages are a disgrace to the city. The pro-russian government made a deal with the russian Metrovagonmash company (allegedly by the pressure of russian leadership). This was corruption (russians did the whole "refurbishing" for a high price tag, there were cheaper offers), they under delivered, no ACs were provided. This company made the ugly 416 series "Uzsgyi", these are diesel metro DMUs that are assigned to sidelines all over rural Hungary. I'm a train fan, but I hate these trains.

This green train (on HÉV lines towards Gödöllő et. al.) is made when the USSR was still a thing, but they're not Soviet - they're made in DDR (East Germany).

Zeer mooie video met zeer mooie treinen👍🏼

lekker bezig man!

Cool perspective! There are other videos on this on the channels Awaydays (mostly football content) and The Tim Traveller (generic quirky travel videos)

6:31 Is that their home ground or a training ground 😂😂😂

Whoa! At 0:38 the wheel was turned right, Benz going full left. Lucky! Great railway. Talk about transit oriented development.

Nice video!

Leuke video Bert-Jan

P.S Wroclaw station is seriously impressive. I feel like Poland is a very underrated country. I've never really considered going there, but the more I learn about it, the more it interests me.

Cliffhanger!!!! Did he make it out? Is he still stuck there? Will we ever find out?!! LOL

Great camerawork and editing! Keep it up :)

another quite interesting video. I kind of want to know what happend with you getting stuck. that must have been very stressfull. glad you made it out okay though!

Germany has started to look like eastern european countries.

New York, London & Madrid also have different loading gauges.

How many tracks are still used in Leipzig Hbf?

Interesting video. Good work.

1:00 overhead rigid catenary is very common for modern tunnels

You found Train Sim World!!

0:47 note: all the S-Bahn trains in and near Leipzig are run by DB. A few years ago, Abellio ran the S-Bahn in and near Leipzig.

4:42 'where tram do normal tram things. :)'

That acquaduct looks massive.

The Molly train is very cool. We used to have something like that in England called the Weymouth Tramway. It run up until the 1990s with class 33 diesels pulling EMUs through the town streets to a ferry terminal. Sadly it stopped running and they pulled the tracks up a few years ago, but there's videos on UA-cam of the railway crews "bumping" parked cars out of the way of the train! Also, with the "rush hour lanes", we now have those in England. We call them "smart motorways", although I don't think they're so smart, because they are more dangerous if a breakdown or accident happens.

A diesel tram...that's a new one! Not seen one of those before.

Very cool I've never been to Berlin, but this really makes me want to check it out! Now you have to do top 10s for other places. Have you done a Dutch one yet? I forget. And London? If not, you should! It'd be interesting to see which London ones you like, from your outsider perspective.

rijden zij ook rond op Zondag??

old fashioned tram!

Fascinating. The Dutch are so innovative

POV: Noordtak

Isn't it beautiful how the double decker intercity train is essentially the same railcars pushed by the same locomotive as the regional train you took afterwards, and both stop at every small town station - but one is white with a red stripe on the outside instead of just bright red, so it naturally costs more :D

Nice video!

The Betuwe line is electrified with 25 kV AC 50 Hz, in contrast to most of the NS network which has 1.5 kV DC. In the past the DC electrification went to Emmerich in Germany where the locomotive was changed to one of the German 15 kV 16.7 Hz system. Nowadays passenger trains coming from the DC system change over to 25 kV AC near Zevenaar, from there all trains use the same double track line into Emmerich, with a changeover between 25 and 15 kV near Elten. This setup requires multi-system locomotives and trains that switch between systems while moving. In practice the rolling stock used across this border seems to be: ICE 3 class 406/407/408 (DB/NS), Flirt 3 multi-system (Vias ex Abellio) for local trains, and class 189, Traxx MS and Vectron MS for freight trains. Can you confirm this? The video also shows some diesel locomotives (probably local freight or shunting). (Also the ICE line to Amsterdam still seems to be 140 to 160 km/h, are there any plans of upgrading it? That could speed up inland intercity trains too, using IC NG sets.)

Ah the single wiper benz, a very iconic at least for me

Some definite Tim Traveller vibes going on here with those useless facts. haha. I like it. Also, the car....very nostalgic 90's choice there! I remember going in one of those as a taxi in Germany in 1996. As for the overhead wires: Hmm. Not sure. Definitely a good idea to test, but I've yet to be convinced.

We had the same test track in the middle of Sweden to, at the E16 road, about 10 years ago. What a joke.

I prefer diesel and petrol which I put in my CLS350d 4-matic and my 300SL r107. Do not build electrical rubbish along the roads.

3:33 Like you said, it would cost a lot in maintenance. I don't have a solution but this is not it 🙏🏾

Personally I'd think building all this infrastructure for an unproven technology seems kinda silly. We invented trains like 200 years ago, seems perfect for this kind of transport. But then again I don't know the details

Mooi filmpje, muziek mag iets zachter volgende keer beetje moeilijk te verstaan maar echt goeie shit
