Thanks, Brings back nice memories of the many years I worked in the Netherlands for a Greifensee basded company. Visited HQ many times, using this line to Nänikon
Love the train rides. They are relaxing and I get to see parts of the wold I probably will never get to visit. Thank you so much! Would be nice if you had a side camera.
Hallo lorirocks777 und Andrea - Immer wieder schön, so eine S-Bahn-Fahrt im ZVV! Tolle Arbeit, vorallem die vielen Infos zur Strecke, zu den Linien und zum Umfeld finde ich einmalig! Herzlichen Dank und Grüsse - Remo
Thank you for yet another beautiful video! I especially liked your little history inserts on some of the regional lines. What really surprised me is how late some of them were electrified, including the Altstetten-Zug line that was the last third of this trip. I was under the impression that all of Switzerland's lines had been electrified by no later than 1930!
I think Switzerland had steam engines running through to the 60's, but coal shortages during WW II promted electrification of some smaller lines and even the conversion of a few steam locomotives to run under electricity with electric boilers. There are a few pictures of them on google with pantographs.
At Wetzikon, a marvellous example of the "interconnectibility" of SBB trains. A pause while other trains arrive. I've experienced it at other junctions, and it's outstanding. Thanks for yet another great trip.
The greenery looks beautiful, something you don't often see in the USA, the houses look beautiful too. But just like here in the USA the walls having graffiti I guess is worldwide.I was wondering when the train went underground ( subway) like that the train had no headlights, what if the driver needed to see the tracks or know when the driver needed to change tracks?
Quite something different to see a trainride through Swiss urbanisation. But even this has its charm because everything looks so new and orderly and clean. Refreshing. Thanks for the ride.
Gotta say though, it was good to see a station like that at Zürich HB with absolutely *NO* ugly advertising plastered over the walls. If you remember Sydney's underground line, you'll know what I mean.
Great action at Wetzikon's platforms. Way cool! 15:58 The bike path gets its own gated grade crossing. Don't see that every day. 20:46 Freight shunting (I think that's the proper word) at Schwerzenbach ZH. Nice. 33:20 A subway station?! Have we gotten to 14th Street-Union Square yet? 48:22 Anyone know the purpose behind the structure framing the siding on the right as the train approaches Birmensdorf ZH? 49:22 Time lapse where everybody suddenly disappears--except for the guys in orange standing with hands on hips. A common pose assumed by railroad B-and-B workers here in the United States, lol! I noticed the unusual, fractionalized voltage frequency of the catenary power in this and the previous video. Here in the U.S., mainline electric railroads settled on 25Hz as the standard (Modern technology now permits utilization of 60-cycle commercial power.) Can anybody explain the reason behind Switzerland's choice? Thank you, Andrea (whichever one you are) and lorirocks for bringing us a look at local service (on what I take it are commuter lines) through the high-density-population region around Zurich. Well done.
Thanks for your commentary =) I have a feeling that the strange frequency owes to the motors used at the time for generating power, many of which were at hydroelectric plants.
@@lorirocks777 You're welcome regarding the commentary. I'm just curious how an operational frequency of 16.7 Hertz got chosen. Not 15 cycles, not 17.5 or 20 Hz, but 16.7. Seems like there must be a good story behind the number.
@@andreasgasser5823 Thanks for your reply. Changing operational AC electrical frequency is rather involved so I'm hoping for a little clarification, Andreas. Do you know HOW the railway, back at the time of electrification, executed this "thirding" of the national grid's frequency? I'm not busting your chops, I truly want to know.

Do Sudohtsbahn now run the railway between Zurich and Chur? We were on holiday the other week so I was surprised to see a gold train instead of a double deck when changing at Thalwill
33:44 You're slipping here, matey! usually you'd have the impending station identified well in advance of the train pulling into it. But at Zürich HB, you missed the advanced identification. Whoops!😮💨
49:25 Yikes! Noch einer begeisterte Bahnhof! Nach aussteigen den Zug haben die leute da plotslich unsichtbar geworden!😁😁😁 49:25 Yikes! Yet another haunted railway station! After they got off the train, those people just suddenly vanished! 😁😁😁
This video is good but the audio isn't. Automatic focus on a camera cannot cope well with movement. You have to use the infinity setting to prevent fluctuation and blurring on the video.
Of course, always great videos ... fun to "go along" for a ride! Quick question if you happen to know (estimate): what is the percentage of 1435 mm vs 1000 mm gauge in Switzerland? [Greetings from Tucson]
@@lorirocks777 Thanks. I've watched a fair bit of Swiss train videos that are 1000mm, but now that I think about it, they were most always in the mountains where a small gauge would make more sense. Again ... I greatly enjoy your postings ... always so very well done, and fun!
1:07 The insert photo of the loco in the top-right corner, there's text on the side of that loco I'm trying to read but a word is obliterated by a pole with a station name sign, making it hard for me to read what's on that loco and translate it to English.
Beaucoup trop de changements de vitesse dans la prise de vue de cette vidéo qui la rendent pénible à regarder. En tous cas, il ne s'agit pas d'une ligne intéressante d'un point de vue touristique !
Que latoso el viaje, deteniendose cada 3 o 4 minutos si se detiene hasta en las estaciones climáticas y la cámara no es 4K, si se piccelan hadta las piedras de la vía, por culpa de la cámara, malo el video.

I travel to work on the S14 from AaA to Altstetten. Nice to see what the driver sees. Another great video.
So very relaxing. Thanks!
Thank you so much 🤗
A leisurely wander through the Swiss countryside and towns..... fantastic!!!
Thank you Andrea for letting us tag along!!!
quelle que ce soit la région traversée sur le territoire Suisse , le plaisir est total !
Very happy to be traveling with you. It's a nice way to see and experience the world. Thanks so much!

@@lorirocks777 Very interesting! Thanks!
I like the signals which show just an arrow as if going backwards were an option...
They tell you your signal allows passage. They come in handy when it's foggy and you can't see the exit signal.
Another great ride, Thank You wonderful landscape.

Headlights are mandatory in tunnels, the camera is just useless in lowlight situations.

Amazing video as always!
Sehr schade, dass das Bild alle paar Sekunden unscharf wird und zittert. Zu starke Kompression?
Seitens UA-cam ja. Aber wenn man auf 4K stellt, ist es klar. Safari unterstütz 4K nicht
@@lorirocks777 Das war auf einem iPad Pro 12.9 in der UA-cam App, mit 1080 Auflösung. Ansonsten wären die Aufnahmen toll.
Nice video my friend 😅💯👍
Que lindo lugar de manhã ver uma linda viagem dessa alegria pura me sinto aí também parabens um abraço

They're just running a few trains there from Bern via Zürich to Chur under SBB's concession.

Towns are more, country side is few in this track.
10:32 - Why such a long platform? For two trains?
Or three (300m).
Dear lorirocks777. Have you considered looking at Belgium’s 🇧🇪 railways 🚆? That would 🐝 🆒!!!
Already have some lines filmed in Belgium, yes.

"in order that you are here, where the bus is"
@@andreasgasser5823 Thanks for that translation! Cheers!
Why do you have to open circuit breaker then close circuit breaker?
Because there is a neutral section of wire seperating 2 different power sources.
are these trains considered hi-speed ones?
No
