- It is on the famous "French Riviera" that we meet for this new video. 259km long, the Côte d'Azur line connects Marseille to Ventimiglia in Italy, and is famous for the beauty of its landscapes, skirting the Mediterranean Sea for a large part. In a previous video we have discovered the line between Nice and Marseille before continuing to Paris via the LGV (link: • ★ 4K 🇫🇷 Nice-Ville - ... .
Today, we're looking at the line leading from Italy to Nice, departing from Ventimiglia, crossing Monaco, before passing through Nice heading to Grasse on a branch separating from the main line after Cannes. So we'll be journeying through 3 countries in this video.
If you aren't familiar with Monaco, it's the second smallest country in the world, behind Vatican City. The train line was formally above ground and was moved underground to free up space in the city. As we enter the tunnel, you can see the route the railway used to take to the left.
We hope you enjoyed the video. Don't hesitate to leave a comment.

A train trip is so wonderfully relaxing, can't understand people who would rather drive. Nuts.
Dude that's so true
Monaco, Italy, etc. are such beautiful places near the coast especially
Yes they are!
Wow merci j'y étais dernièrement. Très beau cab ride !
Par contre, il faut que la région/sncf fassent quelque chose, il y a beaucoup trop de monde entre Nice Ville et Monaco ! (Même en septembre) A un point que plusieurs personnes n'arrivent pas à monter dans le train (et du mal à descendre) dans les gares intermédiaires...
De retour sur la Franch riviera quelle plaisir, merci à la team France pour se magnifique voyage
One of the the best things about *_Train driver cab view_* is the wide angle views + scenery

Awesome 😊
La ligne mythique ! Superbes images ! Merci pour le partage
Just took a short look right now, more time later for the full ride, but ... Wow!! Looks great, as always! Excellent quality. Getting to see another area of the world I haven't (yet!) been in. Thanks so much for sharing! [Greetings from Tucson, where we do have a pretty nice train depot and some pretty good scenery!]
Thanks a lot!
La ligne Cannes-Grasse a été fondée comme le reste du réseau Sud-Est par le PLM. Elle lui a surtout servi, avant-guerre, à expérimenter des locomotives électriques sur différents courants alternatifs de type monophasé, déjà. Il s'agissait de véritables dinosaures du rail avec des configurations d'essieux loufoques comme sur le PO-Midi. Elle a ensuite fermé après la guerre, mais la mobilisation pendant des décennies par la population locale a permis un petit service sur Cannes-Ranguin en traction diesel, avec des X 4500, assez irrégulier et constamment en butte à l'hostilité des politiciens locaux. Finalement, ces décennies de combat ont mené à une écrasante victoire avec la réouverture de la ligne Cannes-Grasse en 2005. Rares sont les réouvertures de ligne en France, celle-ci est à saluer.
Beautiful train ride! Wonder how they dug some of those long tunnels back in the 1870's... what surprises me is how eerily quiet a big town like Nice looks, at least from the tracks.
I started watching cab ride videos when I got furloughed in 2020 because of the pandemic. It was the only way of getting to see outside without leaving my home. I have lost count how many I have watched but they are all good to explore the world from your home.
Thanks for your comment
Grâce à vous encore un merveilleux voyage. Merci. 👍👏👏👏👏❤️
Description translated to English:
It is on the famous "French Riviera" that we meet for this new video. 259km long, the Côte d'Azur line connects Marseille to Ventimiglia in Italy, and is famous for the beauty of its landscapes, skirting the Mediterranean Sea for a large part. We have in a previous video discovered the line between Nice and Marseille's before continuing to Paris by the LGV.
Today, it is beyond Nice that we will go, since we will leave from Ventimiglia, and will then cross Monaco, before passing through Nice and then joining Grasse by a branch separating from the main line after Cannes. So these are 3 countries that will be crossed in this video!
We hope that this new video will give you complete satisfaction, wish you a pleasant trip and do not hesitate to leave a comment!
Travelled back and forth along this line dozens of times. Brings back a load of memories 😎
good god, im old enough to remember travelling to monto carlo via train into an open air station!!
Love the contrast between the smaller bays at the start and the open beaches in the middle, thank you \m/
It is very attractive to travel from the train driver's cabin😍
Monaco -Monte Carlo to najpiękniejsze stacja kolejowa świata ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
I so enjoyed your video, it so beautiful coming along the coast. many thanks
It's amazing where a train starts off at 25KV then 1,500V= than back to 25KV, then back to 1,500V= like from Nice to Paris TVG, even on this video starting off at 1,500V= then switches to 15KV with out stopping to change the pantograph
You're forgetting, it's the train's electrical equipment that copes with the changes of current and voltage: a pantograph merely collects the current of whatever sort, it's all the same to a metal frame that is fixed to a train's roof!
@@rodneymcgovern5984 I know how electric trains work! I have seen some that have two pantographs, these were early trains, not locomotives! Also please re read my comment and there's words *"amazing how"* on other words Its amazing how a train can use only one pantograph, for two different voltages _(not at the same time)_
The equipment if it is designed for duel voltage i.e. 1,500V= and 25KV~thus only one pantograph can be used , other wise two pantographs must be used for the different voltages, e.g. one converts the 25KV~ down to 1,500V= while the other pantograph is just for 1,500V= only.
I know with the TGV the voltage conversion is automatic!
Oh by the way I am not stupid! In can any one thing that!
Thank you for the beautiful images.😊
The most beautiful area of Europe, the south coast next to the Mediterranean
Wunderschöne Natur und Aussicht, Grüße aus Serbien 👋
Super interesting video! The line referred to at the former junction visible at 6:24 minutes did not come from Limone Piemonte (border railway station) but from the infamous "Parco Roja", which never came into operation and cost the tax payer billions of Italian Lire. The aforementioned 1500 V DC electrified line intersected the non-electrified line (pre-war it was electrified with the three-phase system) from Ventimiglia to Limone Piemonte.
❤😊Super! Cool👍👍👍! Amazing😍😍!!!
Thank you 🤗
Great more cab views of the most beautiful
countryside in the world,Thank You.🤠🤠

You are very welcome and have
a great weekend Thank You.🤠👍
Se arriva a Grasse, è il treno dei profumi!
Another railway along the sea and mountains, with tunnels is super! And the underground railway station is like a subway.
A great trip to watch during air alarms. Greetings from Ukraine!
Thank you. Be blessed and stay safe 💜
I am in Sydney, OZ. Thankfully we are a lot further from Russia than you are. Please stay safe
Thanks for another great trip to an area I would never get to see otherwise. One suggestion, in the lower right corner where you show Vmax, show the speed as 'km/h' instead of 'Km/h'. In the metric system, an upper case 'K' stand for Kelvin as a unit of temperature, so you are showing 'kelvinmeters per hour. The unit for 1000 is uses a lower case 'k', so kilometers should be shown as 'km'.
🤓
Une excellente vidéo comme d'habitude , la qualité de l'image et du son est excellent tout comme les informations en cours de route sur l'itinéraire
Continue ainsi et j'espère que tu nous proposera des cab ride vers d'autre pays tel que l'Espagne ou les Pays Bas ou bien ceux en TGV dès que l'occasion se présentera
Bon courage pour la suite et continue ainsi , c'est un plaisir de regarder tes vidéos
Merci beaucoup!
Great video, thanks!
Thank you for the trip to France!It was beautiful and interesting!👌👌
Encore un grand merci de nous passer cette belle video. Mes grands-parents ont pris leur retraite a Nice et j'allais passer mes vacances d'ete la-bas quand j'etais jeune; donc j'ai revu
avec le plus grand plaisir des coins que je connais si bien. J'attends votre prochaine video avec impatience.
Beautiful coast line,thanks for the ride 👍
Excelente imagens passeio de trem por um quadro gigantesco com esta natureza que falta palavras, parabens.
Bellisimo recorrido. Gran video
The Ventimiglia railway station is electrified at 1500 V direct current also for Italian trains which, therefore, operate at quarter power. Only a few modern electric railcars equipped with special devices can reach the border railway station. In my day, with the old locomotives (E636 etc.) fitted with a rheostat there were no problems operating under the catenary at 1500 V. However in winter, if half an hour was normally enough to warm up a train, in Ventimiglia they needed two hours.
Very interesting!
Why Ventimiglia station is electrified at such a voltage?
@@corner63 When the SNCF electrified the Marseille - Ventimiglia line with the 25 kV 50 Hz system, it was decided to lower the voltage of the direct current from 3000 V to 1500 V so that both the SNCF dual voltage locomotives (1.5 kV direct current / 25 kV alternating current at 50 Hz) and the FS locomotives could operate there without too many problems. Until the 1960s, up to Ventimiglia station there was three-phase and from there on there was steam (141R) and diesel. The same decision was also taken at Modane when the line to Chambéry was re-electrified by switching from lateral third rail to catenary. When the three-phase arrived from Italy and towards Chambéry there was 1500 V via the third rail, there were no problems whatsoever
😊😊
Very interesting to see the route from driver's view! I rode this train quite a bit in May, overcrowding was a serious problem. Like there was this time at Eze station when some people couldn't board the train as it was so full! Other that that, the views were truly stunning!
Hallo, Dankeschön für die tolle Mitfahrt. 😊 Wunderschöne Küste, tolle Strecke, super Wetter. 👍🏻 Merci beaucoup und viele Grüße 🙋🏼♂️
Danke fürs zuschauen 😊
The Riveira is so beautiful! But not more beautiful than Cape Town South Africa, where I come from. Thank you for a lovely train tour.
My dream land❤
Très belles images. Hélas ce train s'arrête à toutes les gares => 2 pubs par gare, bon visionnage quand même !
Very intresting vieo..!!! Thanks so much for sharing..!! Really relaxes me to watch this journey.😍😍😍😍
Beautiful! Congrats!
Nothing in this that would entice me to Italy.....ever! However, the south of France......hell yeah!!
i find your coastal train trips really great and relaxing( like your Nice trip) and lots of interesting details
Thank you very much!
Super Mitfahrt Daumen ganz weit nach Oben viele Grüße aus Deutschland Andy
Vielen Dank
Merci Team France !! Blusih Water, Nice Cab ride reflecting beaches, coastlines and Promanade with Coconut trees😀
Beautiful trainride!
Three countries in one video!
Cool!
In 1941, during the Italian occupation of Menton (new tariff connection point with the French railway network called "Mentone Ponte dell'Unione"), the roadman's house visible at 7:51 minutes carried out a passenger service under the name of "Latte". The Menton Garavan stop was renamed Grimaldi.
Interesting, thanks for that information.
Bom dia 🌼 like garantido
Природа осень на черноморское побережье похожа. И широта точно такая же. И железка. И туннели. Туапсе- Адлер таки мне больше нравится. И зелени больше и всё по-русски!
Meravigliosa
May I ask you about the neutral section outside the Ventimiglia Tunnel, is it 1.5kv DC - 25kv AC or it is 1.5kv DC - 3kv DC ?. As I know, Italy has a 3000v DC power line. On the other hand, judging by the catenary poles, it seems to be 25000v AC line voltage.
Magnifique ligne, merci
great rail trip .
I am surprised at the Graffiti everywhere? The pollution of that toxic paint does not help!! I know everyone says it is "ART" Here in Canada this type of Art is waning and there is a push to go back and encourage canvass art etc? As always I Love the train ride !!
Grasse to najpiękniejsza stacja kolejowa w Unii Europejskiej. Grasse powinien mieć połączenie z Sól Kiczora ❤❤❤😊😊😊 ewentualnie z Katowice Szopienice Północne😊😊 albo w ostateczności Długopole Zdrój 😊😊😊❤❤❤😮😮😮 1:39:19
I hope in a cab ride from Ventimiglia to Genoa to see the west Ligurian cost.
And from Ventimiglia to Cuneo to see the famous railways Treno delle Meraviglie
A lovely part of the world, you see so much more than driving along the motorway which we did in 2006. Menton is worth a short stay, its really unspoilt.
In Monaco, did the old train tracks used to run through where the 'Boulevard du Larvotto' now is?
And further south, in Cap-d'Ail (France), through the green space just west of 'Avenue Marquet'?
Excellent reportage
Thanks Team France big time.
teşekkürler.
Keren banget kawan 👍
Cannes la- Bocca to najpiękniejsza stacja kolejowa Francji. Cannes la- Bocca powinno mieć połączenie z Niedzieliska Kolonia ❤❤❤

tres beau trajet sur la cote d'azur ! il y a beaucoup de tunnels! la ligne a une derogation particuliere qui fait qu'on ne siffle pas au passage de ceux-ci ?
nice video I really like it
Super 🙂

Is Monaco the only country in the world where the entire railway network is underground?
Yes!

Восхитительные пейзажи. Так бы ехать и наслаждаться удивительными как локациями.
la gare de Monaco est incroyable🙂
42:16 a selfie can be seen :)
Great spotting. I love those moments!
The Riviera looks a little disappoining - from the train anyway!
Yes, I agree. I'm shocked by the shabbyness of everything. The best cab rides are in Switzerland. Everything is pristine there.
Superbe vidéo ! Peut-être une insertion de la vitesse réelle serait un plus ?
If the GPS would work properly on the GoPro 8, we would. Thanks.

I love your videos 💖 In this one, I have noticed that the ads pop up every 5-7 minutes… 🤔
They just mess up with the experience 🙂
Thanks. They should only be popping up at stations or in tunnels. Without them these videos wouldn't be possible.
@@lorirocks777 thanks for the reply 🌻 I don’t mind them usually, and I every time I see them, I imagine a couple of coins droppin in the creator of the channel’s pocket 🙂 But this time, it was just too much to enjoy otherwise one of my favorite channels here 🌻
@@dusanleonovski8963 Ok, well thanks for your input :) I know they can be annoying. I recently started using a browser called "Brave" that automatically blocks them - mainly because I don't like the fact that my kids have to sit through ads.

I am assuming that you shut off the camera during station stops. Either that, or Europeans board and depart their trains incredibly quickly.
Yes, to avoid overheating

Et encore
@@ericbroc_moba6555 quant aux bus, n’en parlons pas ! Entre Cannes et Nice, pas mieux !
why is the train running on the left track? shouldn’t it be running on the right track? like cars run on the right side of the road in all of Europe, except for the UK
France, Switzerland and some other countries, including a few lines in Austria are built for left hand operation. They followed the English example.
@@lorirocks777 OIC, thanks
