As someone who comes from England and hasn't traveled abroad for quite some time(decades !) this is very informative as I intend to travel in Europe soon, b.t. w. great vlogs.

That's a comedy of errors. And you did not even told us about the ridiculously long travel time. No wonder they were keeping the schedule.

In Switzerland rich people ride on trains cause tickets are freaking expensive! 😅

Rode this train from Luxembourg to Metz at the end of my first travel day with Interrail earlier this month and I absolutely loved these trains. Both cities are impressively picturesque and I had a great time exploring both. I stayed overnight in the Hotel Alerion right in front of Metz Ville station (very good price for such a perfect location), which allowed me to take the 0642 TER to Strasbourg and then travel onwards to and then through Switzerland, before finishing in Milan to catch a midnight flight back to Manchester.

What happens with some RUclipsers when speaks English, h in English is pronounced aspirated, Huge, /‘hiu:dz/.

Amsterdam is losing its direct swiss daytime connection mid july and will be a new Munich direct instead leaving only the Nightjet

If I’m not wrong, since this June there’s no longer direct ec from munich to zurich, we have to transfer in lindau-reutin

Great video, maar je praat te veel!!!!

Another enjoyable video! 👏 Just went through Zurich Hb about a month ago. Nice to see it again 👍

Great video as always....im traveling in Europe now on my rail pass....im chillin in Bremen...i took a day trip today to Hamburg

Dank der Elektrifizierung zwischen Geltendorf und Lindau am 13. Dezember 2020 wurde im März 2020 der Großteil der Züge von Lindau Insel Hbf zum neuen Bahnhof Lindau Reutin umgeleitet. Diese neue Infrastruktur ist zu einer wichtigen Achse des internationalen Schienenverkehrs (DB ICE, ÖBB Railjet, CFF Dostos) zwischen München, Innsbruck und Zürich geworden, eine echte Verbindung zwischen Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz. Zuvor wurde die Zugkomposition auf die Größe der Bahnsteige verkleinert, die diese Insel fast in der Nähe des Bodensees, wo sich der Bahnhof Lindau Reutin befindet, aufnehmen konnte. Eine Anekdote zum Lindau-Bahnhof Reutin: Seit Kurzem gibt es Toiletten!

Lovely video, subscribed. Sorry for disturbing saying the same in each vid

Probably the most impressive thing about Zürich HB is the departure board that shows no delays at all (only 1 cancelled train) 😄

Prachtige informatieve video weer!!

Take a look at dicke butz👍🏽

how far the the train station (Noerrehavn) from the dfds terminal?

oh i hope you did not visit the area in front of frankfurt main station :D

The trains used to be inter City, with corridor class. Now they are commuter trains, with no catering, and from the outside, they look like children's toys. A real upgrade... Not.

awesome the DB has finally took the right decision to remove their outdated version who caused a lot technical issues during it's commercial service to holland and Belgium

15mins of chat makes the video not worth watching just rambling on

AVEはコカ・コーラ派か…

Bedankt voor de informatieve video ! Zit er airco in een flix train?

So having watched the video now, here my critique: Comparing with other train review youtubers, this is way, way more detailed about the train itself and the station you departed from, and a lot less about the route you're traveling on. And I personally prefer these videos showing more about the route and the sights out of the window, the overall travel experience of the trip, and it was a bit too much about the interior for me. Regardless I did enjoy the extended section about the station though.

11:56 perhaps there would be less congestion, if people payed attention to this detail. Most don't however. Generally for trains that are nearly booked out, boarding can be really a mess, often holding up trains causing delays. This seems particularily bad in stations with high traffic but comparatively low number of tracks, like Hamburg and Cologne.

i like your vlog. You should try riding Whoosh in indonesia, the first high speed train in southeast asia with a speed of 350/KMH. There are still many more trains in indonesia that you can make your youtube video. greetings from indonesia, Keep spirit and keep healty😊

I wonder when 1st class will be banned, or at least using more space than 2nd class? I believe Norway has no 1st class. Why shall people, with more money, be allowed to pollute with more CO2?

The investment in ICE is waste of money. They always fall short of the last 120 km/hr. Will they ever get there?

Welcome to Freiburg im Breisgau

It is not a BR406, it is a BR408

Ben ook heel erg benieuwd naar deze trein.

Great video as always....I'm in Germany now traveling on a Eurail pass

You've mentioned you're tall so you should be able to anwer a question I had and as a short guy never thought of it untill I started to see a few Americans complain on the new Venturecars in the Midwest. They said that the head wings made the seat very uncomfertable as their sholders hit it. i've never heard such complaint before on trains in other places so I was wondering if it's a design thing in tthe US or just someing no one mentioned before, which I assume will be very annoying and uncomfortable.

Altijd leuk weer met de ICE! Wel altijd rekening houden met vertragingen.

Mooie video met zeer veel informatie! Ben al benieuwd naar de volgende....

MY HIGLIGHT CITY IS FRANKFURT ON MAIN, CENTRAL GERMANY

Great that there is pace for bikes👍

Thanks for another great trip report! 👌

Lounge Access you get with status- silver, gold, Platin and any valid Long distance ticket (any saver , but Never Deutschland Ticket). Or a flex price ticket in 1st Class. Where a Premium Lounge is, besides an ordinary lounge, Like in Frankfurt, Platin status or first Class flex price gives you access to the premium area. A light meal and Even beer and wine are included there. Seating is better there, too.

8 bikes 🤔

The ICE 4 program is finished: there will be no successor to the ICE4 neither in its current configuration in the XXXL version of 14 cars nor internationally to replace the ICE-3M or Velaro D bound for Paris. For comparison, the Siemens PowerTrain system, assembled like a construction set, which characterizes the ICE 4 reaches its limits in its different configurations L (composed of 7 cars), XL (composed of 12 cars), XXL (composed of 13 cars). The ICE 4 XL from the 2009 ICx project arrived in 2017, reached a top speed of 250 km/h and the commercial speed of the ICE4 XXL arrived in 2021 at the same time as the 30th anniversary celebrations of the first commercial service, on June 3, 1991, is increased to 265 km/h while the most recent ICE 4 L arriving simply in 2022 has a speed identical to the Talgo ICE L whose first commercial service to Amsterdam is postponed to the second quarter of 2025. Deutsche Bahn, which suffers from chronic delays in its schedules, therefore has no interest in continuing the long and tedious development like ICE4 with an ICE 5 of the same configuration. For this reason, the choice falls on the ICE3 velaro neo. The ICE 3 neo (408 series) is not new, but an improved multi-system version of the ICE 3 Velaro D (407 series) based on the same platform as an ICE-3M (406 series). The trains were assigned to the ICE 3 fleet of the 300 km/hour Fleet of DB Fernverkehr. and called ICE 3 neo. The manufacturer of these ICE 3s, Siemens Mobility, calls them Velaro MS (MS for MultiSystem) they are equipped with the European train control system Siemens TrainGuard (abbreviated ETCS, acronym for European Train Control System) is an innovative railway signaling system associated with speed control. The Siemens TrainGuard 200 system, in place of Ansaldo STS. It is a component of the European rail traffic management system (abbreviated ERTMS, acronym for European Rail Traffic Management System) which is intended to eventually replace the large number of trackside signals, signal repetition systems and signaling systems. in the cabin currently used on the various European railway networks. in clear ERTMS provides on-board automatic train control functions and radio communication between trains and the command post or Centralized Traffic Control (CTC), which makes it possible to position more trains over the same distance while reducing delays by completely safe. In 2019, to modernize its 300 km/h long-distance fleet, Deutsche Bahn ordered 90 ICE 3 neo from railway manufacturer Siemens for a value of 3 billion euros, the last of which are expected to be delivered by August 2028. Until 'now it had always indicated that the express trains should be delivered by 2029. The Munich manufacturer managed to develop these trains in a record time of two years, which is short for an intercity train traveling at 320 km/h at commercial speed. The ICE 3 Neo has been used in Germany since 2022 and on international routes such as Belgium since 2023. A partnership with NS Internationales has also been in place since June 2024 and makes it possible to replace the ICE 3-M with these new purchases. Thank you very much for this very informative trip, greetings from Lorient, Frédérique.

Saw the new interior version running on this route yesterday; might want to check that out too.

You fail to mention who built this thing. You should do that on every postings because the history of all these things is intertwined with the history of manufacturers.

Good video

My theory is trains are usually on time until they reach anywhere close to Frankfurt (Mannheim, Munich and Stuttgart also) but the bottleneck is so much that the entire line is disrupted and trains have wait for platforms to clear up as previous trains have to halt, reverse and then clear out (Not the case in Mannheim, this station and its signal switching issues are legendary and just cursed) The Project to allow trains to pass through will definitely help massively in all of these stations.

Thank you very much for such a great video. I will be travelling from Budapest to Prague in September so this is very useful information. I will be watching your video a few more times also your other videos. Safe travels to you.

Don’t laugh at the railway name…don’t laugh at the railway name…

Hi, nice video. the pronounciation of Basel is a wrong surprisingly when you said the train station basel bad you had it much better and it sounded not that bad

Thank You. You gave me good info. Appreciate your efforts .

There are two reasons why Renfe uses its oldest high-speed trains, the 100 series, to run in France: - Firstly, because they are the same as the French Alstom TGVs. France puts a lot of obstacles in the way of homologating non-SNCF trains, so Renfe chose to homologate these trains identical to its own. Still, the French authorities put every possible problem they could think of. - Secondly, because once these trains were approved, Renfe decided to order 100% new trains to make French connections (and other domestic ones in Spain). The Talgo AVRIL. These trains should have been in operation 1 or 2 years ago, but they have had a lot of technical problems and it's only been a month since they started running in Spain. And they still continue to have problems, besides a confrontation between the company Renfe and the manufacturer Talgo. If nothing (more) goes wrong, in the coming months we should see the new AVRIL replacing these 100 series in France, and Renfe entering new corridors like Lyon-Paris. Thanks for your video.

Thanks!
