- A tribute to the historic diesel train VT 601 (VT 11.5) of the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB).
The train was used for the west german Trans Europ Express (TEE) in the 1950/1960s, later as an InterCity (IC) and a regular train.
At 4:45 and 7:48 you can see the VT 602 which had a gas turbine engine.
I used more than 120 different pictures and the tracks "Trans Europe Express", "Abzug" and "Metal on metal" of Kraftwerk's remix album "The Mix".
Volle Punktzahl für dieses super Sammelsurium des legendären VT 601. Glücklicherweise konnte ich ihn gelegentlich noch im TEE Einsatz sehen. Die Abschiedsbilder schmerzen, sind aber Realität. Vielen Dank für die große Mühe.
Great era - Beautiful Train - Superb tribute!
TEE war'n super zug schade dass es ihn nicht mehr gibt...
Sensationelle Zusammenstellung und sogar im Takt der Musik. Klasse gemacht. 5 Sterne dafür.

Très bien réalisé et "Le" hit de Kraftwerk. Super!
I recall these from 1959-60 when I was in Germany...I never used them but I remember that they were really big...
Great to see this video still up after ten years. It was the first UA-cam I favorited 9 years ago and it’s still on my list.
I have many good memoryes from that train
Excellent train trans Europe express is
Trains are so very awesome, danke execbase!
This song and the line dance was a Cleveland staple.
Klasse Arbeit!
5:55 - Is that "De Kippenlijn" in Holland?
In the last frame I saw the tragedy of this idea, but this train....
Super Video super Train, I hope the Velaro (Br 407) will be also famous at once and somebody writes a song of it.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but are the trains retired from service?
@TheMaceymacreary trains are safer than planes and more comfortable than cars! But they require a wast number of travellers to fund them!
Can't find anywhere VT 602 videos...:-(
Blue Star Train...
what's the name of the song in backgroud?
What does BST stand for? It appears after 7 min 27 Sec on a blue train..

final fantasy 6 intro is the main layer of the song
Great train, I worked on it as restaurant staff (in kitchen), Based on Zurcih (SBB) we used to go from Zurich to Milan every day and return
The most beautiful train ever - and a masterpiece of early elektronik music!
Great Video
Reply if you're alive
one of the most strangest looking loco's in history! Had no idea what they were called untill now.
Classic record over the top btw!
this is movie is the best. good. i like. i loved.
i have movies in the trains in de Brazil. see.
Veri good. I like. Beautiful. Confratulations of the BRASIL. I have movies of the trains.
Awesome! I love this song. First the heard the original version in 1977 in HS. Kraftwerk influenced a lot of artists!!
Auch wenn hier komplett falsch gesungen, hieß es niemals Trans Europa Express, sondern richtig Trans Europ Express. Dieses -a am Ende von Europa wird permanent falsch dazugefügt.
Schöne Diashow über eines der schönsten Fahrzeuge, was je auf Schienen unterwegs war. Leider hatte ich selbst nie das Vergnügen mitzufahren ...
In Hamm/Westf. stand bis vor ein paar Jahren eine Garnitur. Es hat mir jedesmal beim Vorbeifahren einen Stich versetzt, dass Vandalen selbst vor so einem wunderbaren Museumsstück keinen Respekt haben und es mit Schmierereien versauen.
A rail masterpiece which signifies an age of speed and glamour.
I was lucky enough to ride on this train from Amsterdam to Munich, though pulled by s class 103 loco but was a fabulous journey which only had one fault, my ex fiancé was with me who didn’t enjoy the journey
@BF6ct Probably not. After relegating one stock of VT 11.5´s into operable status was aborted in 2005 due to rising costs most cars and spare parts were scrapped by Deutsche Bahn rail museum - just a scandal ! Only one and a half stocks and a single power car are left in static exhibits today.
i must say that i had a little train book, very old one
and i much prefered the really old diesels, they look really shiny and almost mystical the way they were shaped,
todays diesels seem dirty and boring - still ok to look at and watch, but the early diesels were like steam locos except without the steam but with the plating and heavy duty metal used
This has a delightful early youtube energy, I love it.
Given that the Kraftwerk album "Trans Europe Express" was created in *1977*, I daresay that the Final Fantasy 6 intro music, if anything, borrowed from this one, rather than the other way round.
If America could only catch up to European transit . The world would be a better place today.
Der VT11.5 ist in Nürnberg nicht verbrannt. Er exestiert noch, auch der 602 Turbinentriebkopf ist dort noch vorhanden.
Auch der ehemalige Max Liebermann exestiert noch und er fährt sogar. Er heißt jetzt nur Blue Star Train.
In Italien sollen noch ein paar rumstehen und vor sich hingammeln.
Wow video did just like when I was a very young MESMORIZED ME!!! I will never stop playing KWerk ... Great better understanding on the TEE!!
This is outstanding, you did a wonderful job with the photos and this is my favorite Kraftwerk tract.
TEE ... a myth that will never die ... most stylish ever train ...
Wait...so the TEE was an ACTUAL TRAIN????
Yes.
Ganz richtig!
Gewiss!
It was not one train, it was a network across Western Europe with different train sets. IIRC all first class, originally all diesel train sets, though that changed from the 70s when they were retired from the TEE services and replaced by electric locomotives with pulled coaches.
The DB developed this type, the NS developed a type together with the SBB, and I believe there were French and Italian train sets as well.
KRAFTWERK FOR EVER 👍🤩💥🇧🇷🤩🇩🇪
Very goog. I like. Nice. Beautiful. I have moives of the trains.
TOLL!2 Dinge die ich mag in einem Video!Kraftwerk und den legenären TEE!Herlich!
What a tragic ending of this video. It is sad
Nein, ein Zug der nicht lokbespannt ist kann entweder selber ein Triebwagen sein, wie z.B. ein Schienebus oder GTW, oder es ist wie hier im Bild ein Triebzug der an jedem Ende einen Triebkopf hat. Das ist auch beim ICE1 so, andere Triebzüge wiederum haben keine Triebköpfe sondern die Antriebsachsen sind im ganzen Zug verteilt, wie z.B. bei der Baureihe 420.
jolf1245 Du hast ja überhaupt gar keine Ahnung von Zügen ,Zrienwagen.und der gleichen. Aber davon eine ganze Menge. Mach fich etst mal sachkundig,dann begreifen und dann schreiben. !!!! Du Fahrradfahrer
Ah ok, well I do know an organisation here in Holland rebought an other TEE train known as the RAm, they're planning to bring it back to it's base since it got customized for the Northlander railway.
Hat sich doch glatt ein 602 dazwischengeschummelt.... ;)
Yes, two engines were rebuilt with a gas turbine engine. The consumption was so high so the Deutsche Bundesbahn decided to stop using these engines. I never heard one of them...
I was always impressed by them in them stations but I don't think I used them...the DDR Vindobona was the closed thing I recall, in 1975
i like this vid..great job on it....i have the TEE in my ICE train series on my page... check them series out sometime
Where did you get the images? I like to know if you don't mind. i want to use them as my desktop pics.
Ein komplettes Exemplar steht im Deutschen Eisenbahn Museum in Nürnberg. Wurde bis vor 3 Jahren detailgetreu und in Handarbeit für einen Wahnsinnsbetrag bis knapp zur Hälfte restauriert, bis die Bahn meinte sie habe jetzt kein Geld mehr für dieses Projekt !!!
Great photoshow. In denmark we had a smaller version of this train from the late 60's to the late 80's. Basically one of these cut in half. They were all-red and called "ligthning trains". Later they were repainted in an silver livery, and nicknamed "The silver-arrows".
I think some of them were sold are still running today almost 50 years later.
I remember that these trains always caught a small audience at the platforms when they were at a station.
@PrekiFromPoland Yes, this stock was Deutsche Bundesbahn's historic VT 11.5 unit using the power cars 601 014-4 and 601 019-3. It quit running passenger charters in 1999 and sadly later on went into inoperable status.
Yeah 2025 or more is TEE a Comeback ready.
Super!
Thank you for posting.
But I didnt wante to watch some photos in the ending.
Once I took the Praedident IC with this great diesel unit...
from Japan
@JensMarquardt wow! thanks for sharing! I first heard the track in '77 when I was in high school, didn't really know much about Kraftwerk let alone a real train that traveled across Europe.. wow!!
10 Minuten Nostalgie Nonstop. Retroflash erster Güte. Und dann noch der dazugehörige Song - erstklassig. Danke für den Upload!
Yep, they were sold do LKR, a local private company. In 1993 LKR bankrupted, and those trainsets were scrapped :(
phantastisch !!!!!! dieser Super-zug traf ich vor 15 Jahre auf 'm Bahnhof von Winterberg, in der Schnee! Das Photo prominent an der Wand. Thnx for posting
Paul-Rotterdam
Hm... the music was the reason for doing this slide show :-)
But I really love this diesel train (and unfortunally never saw one in real).
If those trains were still around I would even had a good reason to go by train.
wow a gas turbine? really?
how did the fuel consumption compare to the diesel engine? bet it sounded wicked!
The end is sad.When I was little,this was my favorite train.
BST stands for Blue-Star-Train. You can find more information on 3 times w dot blue-star-train dot de (sorry i had to write it like this, otherwise UA-cam wouldn't accept it).
@Dokker62 - that's very sad! I've seen photos of one unit as a special train from Köln to Kaliningrad via Polish part of so-called "Ostbahn". Is that unit you've mentioned?
Eternal masterpiece.
@SimonRaahauge1973 I suspect that there are more international trains now than there were in the TEE era
No, I don't think so. There's one working unit left, but just as a historic train.
I guess that you could say that TEE was forerunner to Britains 125 Intercity and Australias XPT and others as well cos of power cars fore and aft etc.
Very nice pictures! Thanks a lot!
Das ist reisen auf höchsten Komfort.Einfach gigantisch.
TEE is much more than VT 601 (VT 11.5)-
The Most bautiful Song ever
Wow! what was that like to ride on this train?? I first heard the song back in 1977 so when did they retire the T.E.E?
Incredible video. Thanks for sharing!
@Koplopermau Het lijkt er in ieder geval verdacht veel op dat deze foto op het traject Lunteren-Barneveld is genomen.
Great to see trans Europe express song still playing these days haha yay
From station to station. In the Duesseldorf City. Meet Iggy Pop. Und David Bowie.
bel video qst treno era in esposizione a cuneo nel lontano 1990
@MsTexas73 i from medina, oh.......this song/dance was a sat night must!
Good pictures depecting the life of the locomotive. Well done.
an beiden enden ist ein führerhaus von dem gesteuert werden kann
Für die Werbeeinblendung mitten im Film gibt es den Daumen nach Unten!!
Super Bilder vom ästhetischtem Triebwagen der Welt, dazu die passende Musik von Kraftwerk.
Was will man mehr ?
Thank you wery much. :-)
I will look at the address you gave me :-)
A great show . . and the music was a great choice!
I have loved this song since I first heard it in 1977 . Beautiful Arrangement !
@adtonko Ahh ok thanks for the information!
Das ist für mich der Zug der Züge!
Welcher andere kommt an dieses Design heran?
Without any words...
Just feel emotions...
Fantastic, TEE forever!
Ciao, D.
