First travelled this magnificent route in1958 while on holiday with my parents .Have travelled it many times since never bored with this route. OBB are well organised .
This is the train I take every vacation, from Verona to Innsbruck, I love it sm, but I wish it was more comfortable and faster, can't wait for the Brenner Basis-Tunnel! Greetings from Barcelona.
Truly incredible scenery. I have been to Rome, Sorrento & Venice but never to this part of Italy or anywhere in Austria. Seeing this makes me want to go however. Great job.
Welcome to my home town ;-) Regarding the legroom: The position of the seat itself is adjustable too, between a short set (vertical sitting position) and a longer seat with a more hanging-around taking-a-nap position. Maybe the seat was in the latter position and you didn't realized the adjustability. I agree though on that there could be a bit more distance between the seats. Btw., those EuroCity trains are from the 1990ies or so and they are scheduled to be replaced on the Munich/Innsbruck/Verona line by brand-new 2nd generation RailJet trains starting December of 2023.
@@marioluxrodriguez5048 it's quite necessary. The ECs have no Wifi, unreliable toilets, no onboard information displays, no business class, I consider the ECs museum stock. Even the oldest 1st gen. RJs are scheduled for a refurbishment once enough 2nd gen. RJs are rolling.
Thanks for posting. My best experience: I seem to have fallen in love with the Austrian Railjet. Last year I travelled in one from Salzburg to Wien in second class and from Venice to Villach in first class. Awefully beautifull and comfortable train, super service. The train you post here will see me later this year, its sister I mean, the EC83. The EC81 leaves Innsbruck 8 minutes after the arrival of the Nightjet from Amsterdam and the 8 min interval seems not a good idea.... So your video is quite informative for me. Thanks again!
With that gorgeous scenery my eyes would be out the window also. Definitely not on my iPhone/iPad. Seats in both classes looked comfortable but of course the edge goes to First Class where you were. Good to know the restaurant car is back … what could be better than enjoying a lunch as you pass through beautiful scenery? I too enjoyed visiting Verona even though I was only there once. Thanks for taking us along! 😉👍🏻
There are some things not right in this video. There is no Wi-Fi on DB-ÖBB Eurocity and Interrail users have to pay fee to ride on the Eurocity to/from/in Italy. 10€ in 2nd and 15€ in first. About the restaurant car, it is not back. It will gez back when this winter this trains will be replaced by the new Railjets with level boarding.
Sorry, you are incorrect! DB/OeBB make no additional charge for Interrail travel too/from Italy (other than the reservation fee) and I have frequently used wi-fi on OeBB intercity services.
@@keithparker2206 DB and ÖBB terms of use of their trains in Italy, Interrail website and ÖBB website says something different. Fee to use DB-ÖBB trains in Italy and no Wi-Fi. Only Railjets, ICE and german IC carriages have Wi-Fi.
@@am18957 OK, so how come I travelled from Innsbruck Hbf to Milano Centrale last year on EC85 as far as Verona, and have just made a resevation on EC85 to Verona from Muenchen in June. Am travelling on a First Class global Interrail pass and only charge has been €3 reservation from OeBB. Lst year, I had wi-fi access on the train.
I travelled on the exact same train at the end of October 2022. I'm not sure from where the train train originates, but it was rammed when I got on at Innsbruck. I'd reserved a seat in 1st Class, but it was occupied. Train staff were conspicuous by their absence and I had to throw a hissy fit to get my seat. There was no restaurant car and no trolley service. Luckily I'd stocked up on enough water and food at Innsbruck to keep me going until Bologna. Once I was settled, it was a lovely ride.
@@Luigi-uj5ml Depending on the context, the word trolley can describe multiple types of vehicles: shopping trolley (shopping-cart), food trolley (a small cart to sell/distribute food and beverages on trains or airplanes), trolley bus (an electric bus powered via overhead wires), trolley car (tram/streetcar, a rail vehicle operating on street level), ... Automatic translation services traditionally struggle with context.
Are you sure the restaurant car is back? I'll be travelling from Innsbruck to Bozen next month. According to Seat61: "These EuroCity trains no longer have a restaurant car, only a trolley service. The restaurant cars were becoming unreliable on the 3kV DC Italian power supply and it is not worth upgrading the power system as the classic trains shown on this page will be replaced by swish new railjet trains in 2024."
The Brenner Pass's days are numbered as a bypass tunnel is being built right now to reduce travel time. Even more reason to take the trip soon. And Bologna is an underrated destination. Being the culinary capital of Italy, it is especially a paradise for meat lovers. I've been there few months ago and ate the best lasagna ever in my life. It also is abundant in terms of sightseeing (it has twin leaning towers which outdates the more famous one in Pisa).
@@NonstopEurotrip They're not gonna just... get rid of the older Mountain Pass Line though right...? There are towns that the tunnel bypasses that will still need trains. The Old Gotthard Line in Switzerland is still preserved and uses passenger trains with the Gotthard Panorama express and Treno Gottardo. I suspect that's what will likely become of the Brenner, heck maybe a new company could form called "Treno Brennero" 😉
What a great trip, great train and Amazing scenery. Between Open seating and Compartment, is depending on situation, But I like Compartment because I can sleep peacefully on it rather than open seating.
My suggestion for a scenic route is the REX3 from Salzburg to Wörgl - sure, it's a bit slower then a Railjet or EC, but it's worth the time with all the nice regions passed (Zell am See, Kitzbühel and some other places) - I've taken this train to Kitzbühel a few times now and it's always great. Only negative thing is that this train is going every 2 hours, so if you miss one, you have to wait 2 hours to get the next one. Right now I'm looking for a daytrip connection from Salzburg to Vienna (Wien) and the best ones are a Nightjet starting at 4.33 am from Salzburg for 14.90€ and going back with another nightjet at 7.46 pm or 9.27 pm from Vienna for also 14.90€ - almost 30€ for both ways and enough time to explore the city without a hotel stay (I live in Salzburg) yesterday I've seen the new generation of Nightjets on a sidetrack parked at Salzburg main station. It has the same frame as the new Railjet but the front car looks like a Siemens Vectron locomotive, not like the Siemens Taurus (1116/1216) on the actual Railjets. (the new Railjet was parked here also a week ago)
you could have avoided the stereotype about late trains, official data says otherwise and they are better than france and germany. I invite you to read the article praising the Italian railways by DER SPIEGEL.
Nonstop Eurotrip isn't too wrong though! I've lived in Italy (near Naples) for about 10 years and go to Italy at least once every year, and regional trains have always been unreliable, infrequent (for example from my local station: no trains in either direction between 09:00 and 13:00), often really late, slow. Not to mention infrastructure: Naples-Bari railway line, an important corridor, is single track for almost the entire length! And the use of 3 coach DMUs (Minuetto Diesel or Swing, or sometimes, even worse 1-2 car ALn 663/668) on important corridors like to Campobasso or Avellino from Rome or Naples... Now thankfully they're no longer as late as they once were, plus Naples-Bari railway line is being upgraded to 100% HSR double track as well as electrification to Campobasso and Avellino which will mean superior electric trains like the TAF, E464+Vivalto, Minuetto Elettrico, Jazz, Rock & Pop. But there's still a lot to improve!
First Class leg room is simply unacceptable. You look like you can barely squeeze into cramped space between seats. Facing second class seats with the tiny (unusable) table also look cramped, but the scenery is amazing.
The stop in Brennero/Brenner is still required, as there's a voltage change (from the 15kV 16⅔ Hz AC for Austria, to the 3kV DC for Italy). And also because it's the terminus station for national services (both austrian and italian). There's in construction the Brenner Base Tunnel, from Innsbruck to Fortezza/Franzensfeste, for almost 60 km, which will become on its opening in the late 2020s the new longest tunnel in the world, and will alleviate freight trains from the old line, that goes pretty steep to a 1,300m altitude (the highest point is the Brenner Pass). There are plans also to build more tunnels along Trentino Alto Adige, siding the historic Brenner-Verona line, to alleviate it from the heavy freight traffic that's increasing year after year. Also the change of signalling to ERTMS/ETCS would mean more international transport.
Technically the train could just coast through the station while changing voltage, but it is still a border and there may be occasional passport (or ID-card for EU citizens) spot-checks. And it's of course an interchange to regional trains, serving the intermediate stops. btw. the north ramp of the Brenner is already equipped with ETCS (as is the line from Innsbruck to the German border). The south ramp in Italy and the line to Verona is currently in the process of being upgraded.
@@stephanweinberger some months ago, FS said that they would undertake a massive project to shift signalling to ERTMS on **all the railway lines**, at least by 2036. Main projects undergoing are the Turin-Milan-Venice classic line, the Milan-Chiasso(-Gotthard) and Milan-Domodossola(-Simplon) lines. Seems a really big project, especially for southern Italy, where SCMT hasn't been installed in some lines, and there are few electrified railways (zero in Sardinia, left often for last for railway projects)
Honestly shocked to hear the train was on time. Every time I've taken this exact train (twice I'll admit) going the other direction back from Munich it always is very late, between 30-60 minutes, because of issue at the tunnel/Italian border.
i've taken this eurocity train from verona to munich (and back) and i have to say.. It's very comfortable, and beautiful views.. BUT... I can't wait for the new brenner railway to open with the tunnel aswell, so that the trip between verona and innsbruck will be drastically shortened and it will be easier to get to beautiful austria and germany
It’s an age-related thing but listening to children being allowed to disturb others without any parental intervention is annoying and inconsiderate. Especially if you have paid First Class. Some people can tune it out but not if you are older and had a more disciplined upbringing as regards’Manner’. 👍🏻🏴 Of course the Brenner Pass was where Hitler met Mussolini.
I did travel this route last April! First part from the Austrian part of the Brennerpas is amazing, sadly going down you looking against a lot of noise barrier, so there is not mutch to see :(
I always opt for a seat in the compartment cars, there's a maximum of five other people with you in the compartment - in most cases that's really quiet.
It's unfortunate that so much of the Brenner south ramp is in tunnel. The descent from Brenner and the approach to Bozen is very scenic, but is now hidden from view.
Question worth 1 million sesterces: on RFI is the ITALY coupon of a possible InterRail One Country considered acceptable without having to pay any "Supplementary toll collection fee on board"? The same question concerns the famous international tickets of the FIP (Free international tickets for railway workers and family members): for the section in Italy, is it necessary to request the Trenitalia coupon or that of the DB / ÖBB in Cooperation? On the RFI section, do the engine crews still depend on Ferrovie Nord Milano (FNM)? Grateful for the attention given to me, I welcome the opportunity to extend cordial and best regards
Great vid! Interesting the 2nd loco was another ÖBB 1 vs something from the Trenitalia fleet... Q: would the Verona - Bologna portion also be used by NightJet to/from Munich...?
Hey two comments. For a global pass you have to buy a 10 Euro “Passzuschlag” and not the 3 euro seat reservation. Dining car unfortunately is still missing on the route, i suspect due to technical problems with the dining cars.
How did you feel about the trains that have their seating facing the opposite direction of travel? This is why I think the Swiss and French trains are better than the German and Austrian.
I have nothing to complain about the scenary and the train itself. But how they run these trains is terrible. Let me explain: I travelled fron Verona to Munich with OBB. I haven't any problems until we reached Innsbruck. There were a lot people without tickets on board the train. And they didn't do anything. I heard some rumors about Frecciarossa running from Milan and Rome to Innsbruck and Munich from 2026. I really wish that Trenitalia and Deutsche Bahn do this route for the italian flagship train
The usual stereotypes, 10 minutes late is not so bad (for Italy). If an even greater delay occurs in another country (see video on the EuroCitY EC45 from Berlin to Warsaw) never mind, it is justifiable.
Hello, really nice video. If you have the opportunity you should try a train called 'vigezzina centovalli". It's a slow train with great views, and it runs between Italy and Switzerland 🇮🇹🇨🇭
First travelled this magnificent route in1958 while on holiday with my parents .Have travelled it many times since never bored with this route. OBB are well organised .
At the time the Bolzano - Brennero section was still electrified with the three-phase alternating current system at 3600 V 16 ⅔ Hz
I love how you always end your videos with a shot of the train station. Well done!
Thank you so much 👍🏻
One for my travel bucket list, that. Nice one!
You should!
Those stunning scenery of the mountains whilst travelling by train is like having a dream. Marvellous view 😍
Couldn't agree more Andrew 😃

No, no where near. But it does use the Semmeringbahn, which is just as good 😊

Do u have any idea why rails are white color on some sections? First time I saw such a thing.
So they absorb less heat and expand less in the sun, up to 10 degrees less I believe
