🚆 4K Cargo cab ride into the main hub (Switzerland | Wangen bei Olten - Hunzenschwil/Schafisheim)

Welcome to another railCare cab ride! This time, we find ourselves in a trusty old Swiss made Re 420 locomotive and will drive our train from the hub in Wangen bei Olten into the main hub in Schafisheim. This video has many specialties to offer, the highlight surely being at the end of the video. Don't miss it! The main hub in Schafisheim can only be acessed from one side, which means we will drive past it, uncouple and drive the locomotive around our train, hook it onto the train again and then drive directly into the main hub. It is located in Schafisheim, however the train station it is connected to is Hunzenschwil, don't let that detail confuse you. It is far from being the sunniest day in Switzerland, so please sit back and enjoy the warmth in the cab while looking out onto the Swiss landscape!

The best: the final, truck and train working together!!!

[@Papag53]

Nobody could pick a better name for this link. Beautiful and emotional. Thank you

[@alexp3752]

Thank you! I love your videos! As a frequent visitor to Switzerland over half a century, there is no place I would rather live and work. Being an engineer who loves working with their hands, the ability to appreciate Swiss craftsmanship, cleanliness and order inspires me to do better in my daily life. From my perspective, Switzerland and Germany embrace what I call "A Culture of Quality" that cannot be duplicated elsewhere. They show the rest of us how work should be done! - AP in California

[@Marisolita_95]

I would add the following countries to your list. They're countries where the craftsmanship is top notch: Scandinavia (Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark), Japan, Austria and the Netherlands. For me, I have experience of the products of all the above countries and they've always been properly done. I've never been disappointed. Warm greetings from Las Palmas, Gran Canary (not a native Las Palmasian, just working & living here, can't complain about the climate here 🌴 ☀️ 🌊).

[@jpcycleservices3810]

I was a truck driver and worked in Switzerland briefly, and one of my favourite memories was watching and listening to the trains in the yard at Muttenz. Probably sounds sad, but it was great.

[@LuisLopez-hf4ed]

JP, it doesn't sound sad at tall.. I live by a train yard here in Pennsylvania and I love listening to yard activity..Working in Switzerland.an opportunity of a lifetime... that's what I call it...

[@daveduffy1755]

Inter model transfer system at carecentre very informative as a huge fan of everything Swiss I am not surprised how well it is done

[@slycat1939]

Another fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. Be safe. God bless you always.

[@angelikaluft2515]

Eine entspannte Fahrt. Am Ende des Videos war's auch sehr interessant (das Beladen des Lkw's). Hab ich noch nie gesehen. Danke für's Mitnehmen ☺

[@dieterschroers8914]

Mal wieder was Besonderes! Vor allen Dingen die Umladung der Container hatte ich so noch nie gesehen. Mich wunderte zwar, dass das Gleis auch im Coop Werksgelände überspannt ist und kein Container-Stapler zu sehen war. Aber die Auflösung erfolgt ja zum Schluss!😊

[@AZqyc]

Oh, that's a very nice video ... I could see so many technical details about the track, the power grid, the yard! Excellent quality, fun to watch. What a nice country ... thanks for sharing. [Greetings from Tucson.]

[@amtrakharry]

That was awesome at the end...

[@whalechap]

Brilliant

[@christianrevol3323]

encore une belle vidéo ! Ces 420 sont les "Bonnes fées" car omniprésentes

[@daleroth236]

I thought it was neat how the container train was unloaded at the end. Not done here in the states in the same way. Would like to see more of the Swiss inventions. Good video also. Loved the ride along and the content.

[@rannorgana]

It's very similar to the US's "Flexi-van" Concept that the ATSF and NYC pioneered.

[@daleroth236]

@@rannorgana Yes, I remember those days when NYC and PRR had similar trains rolling across Ohio.

[@nataschamahr2939]

einfach toll, sehr schöne Strecke.mach weiter so fahre da gerne mit. Schöne Gegend. Liebe Grüße aus Österreich 😊👍🙊

[@tram6214]

An other great cab ride . I think a tons of cargo is carried by rail every year in Switzerland includes international destinations in Germany, Austria, France and Italy as well .

[@LuisLopez-hf4ed]

Right on my brother it is an overcast day here in the United States Northeast. So this is a perfect ride. Thank you once again

[@claudiaterroni1578]

Bellissimo viaggio, come sempre....ottimo Paese. Saluti dall'Italia 🇮🇹

[@sdmarlow3926]

So. Many. Trains. Great video. Nice bonus at the end.

[@rmoudgalya]

@Railway Emotions, many of us would have never realised all the manoeuvres that goes behind the scenes. Thank you so much showing us all these. The rainy weather adds beautifully to the intrigue!

[@CAR-qb3di]

What a Beautiful Trip rainy but beautiful

[@cicerolima7410]

Imágens excelentes é bom ver novas trilhas e imaginar viajando por elas.

[@theobrattinga500]

Great video !!

[@amitc1617]

Beautiful view.. have a great weekend 😀 😊 😎

[@Deathcult82]

Great video and nice end..Now I understand the use and need of those "container frames" that are positioned between the swap body and the wagon itself ;)

[@AndreiTupolev]

That's jolly clever, they can transfer swapbodies under the wires then

[@danielberger1378]

Great video as expected, and thanks for the impressions at the hub. Small feedback: Please let us take part of the whole conversations/radio talks instead of just exposing the marshaller and the operator, but not your own voice.... showing radio talks via subtitles might be an idea for the future.

[@RailwayEmotions]

Thanks for your suggestion, I might try something like that next time. Keep in mind my personal goal with these videos is and has always been to show the views and the operation, for rail fans, professionals and travel-hungry people alike, and not getting too technical in the process.

[@danielberger1378]

​@@RailwayEmotions I totally agree with you, but my point actually was: Include the whole conversations, or nothing at all (a one-sided audio just doesn't seem right for me as a viewer/listener), hence my suggestion with the subtitles

[@MegaZorro04]

Uno spettacolo😃

[@wnj765]

As always astonishing video .Cheers from 4k walk in Poland .👋👋🤝🙋‍♂️

[@628s-chanf7]

Hello Sehr gutes Video, RailCare hat sich eine moderne Grundlage geschaffen, Güter effizient transportieren zu können. Jedoch sind definitiv noch Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten da, welche ausgeschöpft werden könnten. Dies hat im Winter erstaunlicherweise relativ gut funktioniert, in letzter Zeit sind Beiträge im Betriebsreport BZ bezüglich unqualitäten seitens RailCare wieder vermehrt anzutrefen. Anzumerken noch zum Video: erschwerend zum Traktionswechsel und der langsamen Einfahrt in die 250er Gleise in Hundschenswill (sorry, kleiner Insider) kommt noch die Schutzstrecke zwischen LB und HU hinzu, weswegen meist etwas defensiv disponiert wird. Ich wünsche den gesamten RailCare-Team viel Erfolg in der Zukunft Grüsse aus der BZ von einem, dessen Grosselternhaus zu meiner grossen Freude in den ersten Sekunden des Videos zu sehen ist

[@danielberger1378]

BZ Mitte? Welcher Sektor...?

[@AndreiTupolev]

There sure was a lot of freight traffic going this way. There were two that passed us before we started, and another one waiting to follow, and then we were running alongside another one at Olten! Oh, and one coming off the branch from Zofingen at Lenzburg!

[@sfcipher5254]

[@officialmcdeath]

Thanks for another RailCare clip, these are full of small details that are so easily overlooked by the casual passer-by - good also to travel the quieter side of the Gexi triangle and see the transfer off the mainline at Lenzburg. 3 thoughts: firstly, you've previously shown us the static brake valve setups in Muttenz, which save time building up and testing trains. Obviously, on the open road by Dottikon storage sidings, you don't get that luxury - how much extra time do you need to reconnect the train and test the brakes? Presumably, given that you're on the main North - South transit route, you're going to be waiting a while for a slot anyway. Secondly, does the diesel (at the end) tow you off the site? Thirdly, since we're in the area, were you ever involved with the container trains for the SMD Kölliken cleanup, and, if so, do you have any anecdotes you could share? Good to see the self-loading operation you hinted at in the previous video. Overall a tasty treat - thank you once more - look forward to the next one, stay safe until then \m/

[@RailwayEmotions]

Whenever a locomotive is coupled onto a train, the brakes of the train have to be checked ("Zusatzbremsprobe"). A static brake setup wouldn't have changed anything in this case. Yes, our locomotive has been put in "towing" mode and the diesel took care of the rest. Unfortunately, I have had no business with the cleanup of the SMDK.

[@robertcoleman4861]

nice journey

[@markotxe]

I really liked the end of this video, with this loading of the truck. But one question: why didn't the locomotive change sides of the train at Lenzburg station?

[@628s-chanf7]

Lenzburg is among one of the most frequented Stations of Switzerland and is a rather old Station. There is always lack of tracks there, changing direction in Lenzburg is almost impossible without having another Loco on the other side of the train or completely crushing the timetable. Thats why they chose Dottikon to do their maneuvres

[@AndreiTupolev]

It would save a lot of time and line occupancy if there was room to run round at Lenzburg, wouldn't it.

[@RailwayEmotions]

Simply not enough space there for such a maneuver.

[@BogdanO45]

Could you please explain in the future videos how the train traffic signals work?

[@rocco680]

Mega Video,eine Frage hätte ich kann mir jemand sagen warum ist nur bei Schweizer Bahn links Verkehr?

[@zeekyblarghonk]

This is a wonderful video, Truly wonderful. May I please ask, at 39:20 what is the procedure in use for charging past that red signal? What is the proceed authority there?

[@RailwayEmotions]

Permission to shunt is granted either by a shunting signal, via radio/telephone or by dwarf signals.

[@removock3364]

Tolles und spannendes Video - wie schon mehrmals bemerkt, habe auch ich nicht gewusst, dass Container so auf den Lastwagen verschoben werden können (und zurück). Musstest Du eigentlich beim Umspannen der Lok die Wagen selbst ankuppeln? Ich habe keinen Rangierarbeiter gesehen. Danke und Grüsse - Remo

[@RailwayEmotions]

Ja, das gibts mit Güterzügen öfters. Da müssen wir regelmässig selbst Hand anlegen.

[@removock3364]

@@RailwayEmotions 👍👍 Danke für die Antwort.

[@roboftherock]

My first thought was this is a continuation of the earlier video which terminated in Wangen b Olten, but when the origin of the train was shown I realised it was not. One of the nice things about these freight videos is the number of non-passenger stretches of track which get involved. This one has those curves leading to/from Hendschiken. Nice one. In Dottikon-Dintikon stration there was a train of VTG wagons and one NACCO. What is NACCO? The sidings south of D-D - are they a graveyard for unwanted passenger rolling stock? As you foretold - a very interesting ending; most unexpected. Certainly some intriguing hydraulics on that road vehicle. What was the purpose of the locomotive at the destination?

[@officialmcdeath]

The Dottikon sidings are a strategic storage facility - during the height of the pandemic, the Swiss international passenger cars were kept there \m/

[@remitamborini9310]

Great route with an amazing train! I love your videos. Is it planned that you will make a video in the region of Geneva (Léman Express) or Lucerne (S-Bahn) ?

Pity the reversal could not be done at Lenzburg, Would save mixing with the Gotthard freight trains

[@RailwayEmotions]

Simply not enough space there for such a maneuver.

[@paulcollington2523]

🎉

[@rabde1041]

Molto bello. Mi sembra che RAILCARE funziona. Perchè il treno non ha fatto inversione di marcia a Lenzburg? Tropo traffico e pochi binari? 👍👍👍

[@RailwayEmotions]

Exactly, not enough space in Lenzburg for such a maneuver.
