Betuweroute is shut for 80 weeks in total 60 weeks of single line working means 65 trains a day on the brabantroute and once the full closure is in place for 20 weeks 135 trains per day apparently

Sorry about the lack of videos recently, I've just really been lacking any motivation to go out and film things recently, plus been super busy with work!

What a place to start Dan. Best place in France for loco hauled passenger variety. Lots of new units being built to replace a lot of the older stock unfortunately. Make the most of it.

Aye I was lucky to get the two 67/5s! Hearing them diagrams replaced by units from this month

Probably the best place in France for freight. The 2 channels you mentioned are two of my favourites as well. Fret Spotting and Trains_Spotteur_69 are great as well for Southern France. Absolute superb video though Dan. Very enjoyable 👏🏻

Hi Dan, Blake recommended your channel. Absolute superb footage at Tergnier. I have a real soft spot for France after spending many holidays there when I was younger spotting trains. Have subbed to your channel as your content looks great 👍🏻 all the best. Ben

Hi Dan. How did you get on in Switzerland, price wise I'm thinking about, food, hotel etc. I've heard it's a touch on the pricey side.
@317Dan9 ай бұрын
I didn't stay in Switzerland so I can't comment on hotel prices (I stayed in Strasbourg when I filmed in Basel because it was cheap and a good excuse to get loco hauled trains in for haulage on TER200), food was pretty pricey whilst I was there though but that was mostly because I didn't have any francs on me and had to use euros and in some shops things cost more because of it

@317Dan11 ай бұрын
Cheers, for passenger trains in Belgium specifically I use Haltelink Tracker which gives live allocations of locos and carriages, but with freight it's very much a turn up and wait job. I was with some Dutch friends who get gen on interesting moves as well; we went for the Class 21s and weren't expecting much freight hence why we weren't really on the right platform for them.
