Driver's Eye View - Dobšiná to Rožňava - (Slovakia)

  • It’s already been a long day and we still have two more branch lines to visit including this one before continuing to the beautiful town of Kosice. It’s hard to believe that this wonderful network of railways still exists almost intact, carrying mainly freight, although some of the lines still see a limited passenger service. We join the driver in the cab of our affectionately named “Grumpy Diesel” for the run from Dobšiná to Rožňava through attractive mainly rural landscape, punctuated with occasional industrial complexes, towns and villages.

    thank you for this video, but also for your other videos, you have filmed in Slovakia. I'm slovak and train lover, and I think this is a very nice presentation of beautiful slovakian countryside as you venture and observe that beauty from the train. Also your videos are a beautiful memory of these places, as some of these tracks are no longer operated by train company anymore, due to lack of passengers, so your videos are the only possibility how to experience it again, at least virtually. keep on the good work!

      Hi, Slovakia is a beautiful country, Europe’s hidden gem, especially the High Tatra Mountains. This was one of my all-time favourite rail tours and a wonderful way to see the Slovakian countryside. It's a shame that some of the railway lines traversed on this tour are no longer in regular use. I'm glad you enjoyed these videos. Thank you. Tim.

      Hi Robert, I'm pleased you enjoyed it. I would love to cover some of the lines in NSW, but it probably won't be from the cab, Australia appears to have rules similar to the UK as far as cab-ride videos are concerned, although we are fortunate here in that some drivers post good cab-ride videos. So far I am not getting a positive response from Queensland Rail for my trip from Brisbane to Longreach, which surprises me a little as adverts for Australian tourist trains often feature on my videos. I was also hoping to feature the line to Cairns as well, but I'll probably go to NZ early where Kiwi Rail are more helpful, they realise travellers UA-cam videos lead to people booking trips. There is still time before I travel, maybe Queensland Rail will surprise me. New South Wales is a great tourist destination, my visit to the Blue Mountains was all too brief, I must return to spend more time appreciating the area, there is a lot to see and do.

      I doubt that the minister could directly override the rules, but he may be able to suggest procedures which will allow you to apply officially for permission with a good chance of getting it.

I arranged cover for the maximum I could get for a reasonable price in the UK, 5 Million Sterling. The Queensland Rail staff I met were all very friendly, polite and helpful, but I never got a reply from their publicity department. New Zealand and Australia have gone the same way as the UK, all reasons for not being bothered are blamed on Health and Safety.
