Excellent video again Doc, please continue your way of not speaking or using outrageous titles etc.
Awesome! Commandos 1 2 3 and 4!
great! but they should booking more easy made as booking an airplane frot (eg) Amsterdam towards Stockholm!
Very :-) Nice :-)
So nice !!! 🥸
Interesting technique, out and back in sections but I like it as you see more in daylight. Looking forward to the Danish/Swedish segments.
personally, I prefer a single direction of travel for this type of video.
This is a great connection. Pitty that the booking term for Swedish trains can be so unpredictable though.
What a beautiful train, thank you for taking us with you! Did I miss the dining car or did it not have one?
there is no restaurant car on the sj euronight train berlin-stockholm
Not many pax in Berlin is not so surprising, they have additional option with the Snälltåget.
Both Snälltåget and SJ Euronight stop in Berlin & Hamburg-but the online journey planners show a quicker connection by taking the EC/IC/ICE between Berlin and Hamburg, meaning a lot of people end up boarding in Hamburg (even they started from Berlin!).
@@paulsladen that makes no sense to me - why change trains just to end up in the same one anyway?
@@ignacypaderewski2685 Since the train spends quite a lot of time in both Hamburg and Malmö, there are trains that depart Berlin after the SJ Euronight and arrive in Hamburg before SJEN departs. Same thing for the southbound trains, there’s an SJ X2000 that leaves Stockholm about 30-50 minutes after SJ Euronight and arrives in Malmö with the train still there. All of these changeovers is to save an hour or two of time from your evening.
will the route change when they finish the Fehmarn Belt tunnel in 2029 i wonder
Ha! Ha! ❤
hello your videos sound great but I would like to see in some videos if possible the intercirculation of trains because I like the noise and see on a switch from time to time here I hope you can see my comment 👍👌
I really don't see this train being a success in the long run. The majority of people who want greener travel are the younger demographics who are not able to pay 170 EURO for a return trip in a couchette. They will instead use Flixbus which has prices as low as 60 EURO for the same route. The majority of people I have seen on this train have been elderly couples who don't normally use trains, but thought it would be a fun idea to try as a one-time thing. I am also appalled that SJ expects you to pay the same price for the two sleeper types, despite how different of a product they are. It's like buying a business class seat for a flight, and then the airline puts half of the business class passengers on an A380 and the rest on an A320.
Snälltåget is more suitable for younger people, at least what I have seen on Malmö Central. Groups with younger people waiting on the platform.
Firstly, comparing Flixbus to a night train is an insult. The people travelling on Flixbus are only professional masochists.
Second: the majority of younger travellers are travelling on Interrail pass, and therefore the price goes down massively.
Third: it's only one sleeper type left now, the WLAB32s. The MUn sleepers were only meant as an interim solution, and are slowly returning to RDC Autoreisezug now.
Awesome trip! The deluxe cabin looks absolutely amazing.
European night train drivers are definitely a special breed, they deliver a service enjoyed by many and it looks like it’s getting popular once again, kudos to the whole night crew no matter what service they are plying, just thinking if you can’t book the deluxe in advance because they don’t know what cars will be available couldn’t you tip the attendant a few euros for the upgrade as no one knows in advance of what you are getting, surely that would be ok if you’re willing to pay for the upgrade then it should be fine to offer it to you
The Rendsburg High Bridge makes it possible for passengers to throw the stones back at the youths who threw them earlier. 😜
No, at 42:11 is the ČD EuroCity Flensburg Prag.
This is so awesome♥♥....I hope you will do a video to Split(HR) night train again this year.
Greetings from Satu Mare ...RO♥
19:12 was the other Night Train to BeNeLux, isn't it? Also where to get that aurora borealis light you always have in your compartment? Your videos are always a real pleasure to watch 😊
Why don't you film in 4k anymore?
Hi, been watching your vids for a while, I think I prefer the continuous journey from A to B.
Only the leg within Sweden is subsidized. Based on public procurement.
and denmark segment is subsidized
I love the details you show in your video's. In the meantime I know quite a lot about railways (I thought) and I never knew that the old day solution for such a high bridge over a canal in low lands is similar to gaining hights in the mountains: build a loop (such as in Wassen, Switzerland). I'm looking forward to the next episode!
It seems relying on this train is a pure gamble - random compartment, random schedule if running at all. This is not how air traffic will be decreased.
Just checked availability on about 20 days from June to August - all sold out with one exception on one date - but a seat reservation only.
If the demand is so high, there shall be more capacity. If they just refuse to sell tickets because they get their costs covered from subsidies, this is a money drain that will not last for long. All in all - disappointing.
Excellent video, though.
Hi! please can you review the milan - palermo sleeper train at some point in future. it does the entire length of italy!
Love your videos, the best on UA-cam! What’s the intro music, please?
amazing. i want to use this train when i interrail
I think those SJ is refurbished, did they look in good condition?
Thanks for a nice presentation of this EuroNight service. It's great to have int. night trains with sleeping cars back in Sweden. That competing Snälltåget (a Transdev brand) without sleeping cars - not private, but to the majority owned by the French state.
Thats good to know some of these night trains aren't full even though they say booked. I want to do a night train on my Eurail trip and i will just check at station day of train for availability.
Many people board at Hamburg-either because of coming from BE/FR/NL/CH/UK direction, or because the journey planners shows a quicker connection by taking the ICE Berlin‒Hamburg.
19:16 what makes there the train Berlin-Amsterdam?
Can someone tell me what MUn means in reference to the rail cars.
The Vectron train is now also used by HŽ Cargo in cooperation with Railpool.
Awesome trip and, specially, awesome room! Great luxury.
1st class without interrail is pretty expensive. Checked from Malmö to Berlin, you need to pay 7500 SEK one-way.
So about €750? That is quite steep.
19:12 is my hometown of Haarlem!(:
we made a long detour
Are you also planning to do the RDC service with their Baureihe 101?
You get the MUn wagon only by pure luck, do you? So expect the claustrophobic standard cabins and maybe have a nice surprise with the new wagon. (Same goes for deluxe, just on a much higher level).
edit: - ah, 20:54 gives the answer :D
When you used the train Stockholm -> Berlin last month it was only sleeping cars and kinda packed (until Hamburg). But I'm happy they have the extension to Berlin.
Same rute as 2021
😍😍😍😍😍
Wow! Rendsburg bridge! Nostalgie. Crossed it 4 times on the way to Flensburg and back to Hamburg. Amazing!
I wonder what the CZ trainset was doing in Flensburg? Did it stay in the depot? For when this train starts from Kiel, it does not visit Flensburg. I travelled to Chech Republic from Flensburg by this train, so I had first to come to Kiel by a kind of rail bus. Had no idea that this train also had to travel from Flensburg to Kiel, probably after us. Although there is only one-way direct rail track to Kiel from Flensburg. Probably the Czech train travelled via Neumunster?
Nice vedio sir
I'm hoping the railway police can take this kid home and report what he did to his parents; and how his actions injured someone onboard the train. I hope his parents will give him a good thrashing for this. (But wait, in this day and age, it will be the parents who will get in trouble.😢.
Nice piece of work the video. Not sure if SJ really understand their business. My recent experiences have been poor with lots of SJ failures and cancellations. I did the snalltag in May. Slower than SJ but reliable and comfortable.
Do they still sell deluxe cabin?
not this one anymore
I cannot find an opportunity for that Delux Room anywhere :(
as explained in the video -> the mun sleeping car is usually not deployed on that train anymore
@@doc7austin Thanks for the clarity.
I checked the night train to Berlin search, and I have not seen it on a single time anywhere and i checked a lot. I would then go as far that it is gone.
The Rendsburg high bridge is very well filmed! Over a long period of time there was only one track and the line was not electrified.
at 31:04, the correct term (for trainspotters, old men in anoraks and all other pedants is "shunt" not "taxi"
Brawo. Super trasa.
19:12 this is a completely differerent train, right?
I had hoped you would do a bit of video of Stockholm. 😢
I love riding trains.
My biological mother in Germany took me a few places on a train.
I also used to take the train from San Diego, California to Los Angeles and back. It runs along the beach for a lot of the trip.
you will see stockholm in part 3
TY the view of the bridge. Great video.
Just amazing! :)
beautiful train
Do you know if AB32 / WLAB mz 7071 have 3 beds in a normal cabine ?
yes; 3 beds per standard cabin
@@doc7austin Thank u !
Thanks 👏
Watching in one vid the first half of a trip and then the second half of the way back, and in the next vid the second half of the trip and then the first half of the way back is a bit anticlimatic. I will wait for the next vid to finish the trip, watch the first part of the way back and then go back to the first vid to finish it. Apart from that, great work as always.
because I filmed a lotmot scenes, I decided to split my report into 3 parts: Germany, Denmark, and Sweden
@@doc7austin I nornally love to watch your videos, but this division of the scenes doesn't make any sense to me because there's no flow at all. I hope that in the future you will edit this as always. At least for me personally, it's not fun to watch in this way
No restaurant coach !!😮😮
Almost no night trains have these anymore. In NightJet and other trains you buy snacks from the conductor, which is cheaper for the operators.
@@NerdX151 Haben Sie jetzt keine Restaurantwaggons in den Zügen?🤔Ich bin mein ganzes Leben lang in Flugzeugen geflogen, aber ich sitze gerne im Restaurantwaggon des Zuges.Und wenn es noch einen guten Gesprächspartner gibt, ist es doppelt schön.
You can get food from the sleeping car, where they've got an microwave. Same food as on SJ High speed trains I belive.
@@JockeWahlberg Europa ist sehr klein und kann das Ausmaß Russlands nicht verstehen, wo selbst Eisenbahnzüge eine besondere heilige Bedeutung haben.Für russische sollte die Zugfahrt immer eine Fortsetzung ihrer Heimat sein und daher ihre Einstellung zum Essen im Zug besonders sensibel sein.Alles sollte wie zu Hause sein und sogar hausgemachtes Essen.Viele Touristen buchen Tickets für den transsibirischen Express.Nur dort können Sie ein wenig verstehen, was es ist.)))
Savings !!!!🥸
Ich dachte du wolltest nicht mehr mit SJ fahren.
Für diese Reise musste ich nichts zahlen; Das war die Kompensation für meine SJ Fahrt letzten September
@@doc7austin Ach, interessant.
Das ist gut!👍
@@doc7austin What happened with SJ? I'm taking this same train later this year from Hamburg to Stockholm and back and I'm a bit worried of things not working out, because it was very expensive and I don't really have a plan B. I bought a first class interrail pass and reserved one of those deluxe rooms with shower en suite.
@@arnonuehm1 Probably nothing will happen, the train run every night without major problems. It might be delayed (it usually is due to lower speed than planned). Your trip will be fine :)
@@arnonuehm1 Just came back with this train two days ago and everything went well. So dont worry. As I had one of the deluxe single cabins (unfortunately not the MUn ones...), this was excellent travelling. Staff on train was very friendly as well. Seems they really like their job.
"This train is empty, man!" Yeah, well . . . apart from those with a crush on trains and the climate crazies (together less than 0.1% of the population) people make the sensible decision to catch a flight. There are some four of those between ARN and BER every day, block time is under 2 hours, and a return will set you back 2,000 kronor or so. No-brainer.
