    I lived in Sweden for 5 years (Gävle and Stockholm) travelled a fair bit and I can tell you the trains are so much smoother than the ones here in Canada. I'm born and raised in Toronto I still live in Toronto and this country of mine is going to shit. Shout out to Sweden sending love from Toronto 💙

Sweden has certainly some delightful scenery and some parts reminded me so much of parts of the UK and also of my time living in New Zealand in the North Island. A lovely video and thank you for providing me with an interesting ride on a very smooth express train.

    Never ceases to amaze me how quiet smooth and fast rail is in most of Europe. Such a difference from N America. Over here the most commonly replaced part in a loco is the air horn. Because they are leaning on it every 2 minutes.

      @@acmenipponair Yes I realize that. In Europe they are sensible enough to realize the only way to idiot proof the interaction of rail and automobiles, its to ensure it happens as little as possible. Here? The Automobile rules. And many people die every year because they think they are faster than the train, and they can see a path around the blockades (if any exist that is).

      On the other hand, our Swedish trains stop operating when there is a leaf on a track or a little bit of snow.
      A third common reason is migrants who steal copper wires and stop traffic. We call them zigenare.
      On the bright side, American trains derail every second day while our trains tend to stay on the tracks.

      One of the most critical parts of true high-speed rail is complete grade separation from any other traffic, so horns aren't needed, because there's no crossings, at all.

    • @markraciborski4289
      @markraciborski4289 6 годин тому

      I believe that train has a speed of 125 mph?
      The DC northeastern corridor, which is the only electric section on that eastern line, is limited in speeds because of tight turning radius, tunnels restrictions.
      Even the Aclea is throttled back for most of its route, if it hits its top speed is for very short token distances.
      It's a problem of old infrastructure not upgraded for decades.
      Trump cut the funds on California's high speed train, it's been restored. The California line, diesel electric is extremely popular.
      He is also responsible for the Acleas delays as for 4 years the railway had zero support.
      They have open new long routes, one a 2 days I believe from up north to Florida.

    I have never been in Sweden and this is the first cabview experience that I have seen of your country. I must say that I am impressed. The ride is extremely smooth, I have seen only a few level crossings, near Stockholm construction seems to have blasted quite a few hills to make way for the tracks (my topographical knowledge is lacking I thought Sweden was mainly hilly inland and not near the coast) and overall it is an idyllic picture to look at with the countryside moving past.
    There are a few odd things looking at this footage from my Dutch perspective. First trains drive on the left, I assume this is a remnant of the past? Very few station on the line (maybe this is the high speed line and there are other more rural lines or the Swedish interior is very sparsely populated?). And some discontinued small railyards which always hurts my soul, I assume there was more rail traffic way back when and that most of it moved to trucks.
    Overall a beautiful depiction, thank you.
