    Well, at least is one of the few last remaining night trains to feature a dining car open all night long

    • @doc7austin
      @doc7austin  Місяць тому +1

      yes, a full service dining car is rare these days on european night trains; the dining car is not open all night long

    • @CalinFR
      @CalinFR Місяць тому

      @@doc7austin it is open all night long or at least it should be. it's just that the waiters prefer not to. They even have the nerve to tell the passengers they cannot order after a certain hour, so they can get some sleep. I've boarded the train many times in the middle of the night and I was happily served

    • @doc7austin
      @doc7austin  Місяць тому +1

      @CalinFR no, the waiter told me - the dining car reopens at 6 am; so that implies to me that the dining car is closed until then; moreover, how can just 2 staff work for 16 hours ?

    Are the old carriages powered by the locomotive, or do they each have their own generator attached to sheels and batteries? Would they be elecric heated in winter? stove in each carriage? steam?
    Also, I have to complain about the video: you didn't film the first locomotive change from electric to diesel 🙂
    You had the sound perfect on the video. Hearing the good old fashioned tracks and no wind. Perfect !
    Pretty amazing the contract between a TGV style of "aseptic" train with no openable windows and tracks that are totally different, and this train that has openable windows and the traditional sounds of a train.
