I remember doing part of this route back in my student days with some friends back in 2005. I went from Kassel to Prague and changed trains in Dresden; seeing the names Bad Schandau and Usti nad Labem was a nice trip down memory lane - thanks, haha! Back then, the immigrations agents would come onboard and do the passport inspections en route - I still have my old passport stamps!

[@Pidalin]

Immigration checks in train, that's like something from difference century for me, I am glad we have schengen now.

[@Barflax]

Was riding this route during the Iron Curtain, took much longer then, heavy checks at the border both out and in the next country. Prague/Praha is a wonderful town, everyone should visit it.

[@victordewolff6035]

I really like your videos. I made this trip with my wife in December 2016, when we did a train journey through Europe (1 month). The section from Dresden to Prague is really scenic. If I remember well, the most beautiful site is on the left side of the train.

[@yukwahchu337]

Yes, I too recall the views follow along the Elbe river on the left side of the train when heading towards Prague

[@DanielsUKT]

Nice trip report I like that this service links two captial cities Berlin in Germany and Prague in Czech Republic and I like the views of the river after dresden and coming into Prague with the houses using historical architecture also Berlin HBF = always an amazing sight

[@Trainviking]

Absolutely. And actually this line will connect other capitals as well, since some trains on this line will be extended to Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest (not all at the same time).

[@TravelALBERT]

nice Video thanks

Greetings from Prague

[@TravelALBERT]

3:36 my favourite train

[@--deusvult--]

Nice Video, just what i expected. This is a pretty slow route at the moment. Fortunately when section between Berlin and Dresden is completely upgraded the Vmax will be 200km/h and trains wont have to take the detour via the Ringbahn reducing the travel time to just 80 munites. Furthermore there are plans for a new highspeed railway from Dresden to Prague (but i guess you know that already).

[@Trainviking]

Really? I did know some things about it already but not everything. Thanks for letting me know. Makes me come back another time for another video I guess.

[@alexandermukher5689]

So I would also like to see a travel video to Poland when possible again.

[@huyustus]

thank you very much for the video, wich type of camera you have?

[@cliffordcajayon]

I’m traveling from Prague to Berlin , where can I reserve the Tickets? Is it safe online or just buy it at train station in Prague when you get to the terminal ? Thanks

[@Trainviking]

You can buy them at the station, however I recommend to buy it in advance. This might safe you a lot of money. Promotional tickets are for specific trains only. You can book tickets via trainline.eu, bahn.de or cd.cz. Trainline is using the same fares as Bahn.de. However, I'm a big fan of Trainline. CD.cz (Czech railways) might have another fare, and most of the times the prices are a bit lower via them. Reservations are not obligated, however it can be busy (I travelled for this video in 2020, not a lot of people travelled back than) so I really recommend to spend the small extra amount for the seat reservation.

[@davidlambe2856]

Stockholm to hamburg did you try that train or berlin to warsaw

[@deannasmith9389]

Quick question: Is there a 1st class 'compartment' or are the compartments only available in the 2nd class?

[@Trainviking]

No first class compartments

[@robertjaques5288]

how long did the trip take

[@sumeetsingh8712]

Hey, is this the same train as EC 173 from Deutsche Bahn ?

[@Trainviking]

Yes, these are the same trains. Operated in cooperation with Deutsche Bahn.

[@Nehabagla]

Do you recall if the 1st class WCs have diaper changing stations?

[@Trainviking]

I honestly don't know if they have a deeper clearing or not.

[@davidlambe2856]

Lublin did you ever go there

[@anguscovoflyer95]

i have been on that train in first class, which was pretty cheap

[@lavywhite12]

I’m from the US I am travelling to Prague and taking the train from Prague to Berlin… I never see anyone checking passports do they?

[@Trainviking]

In general they don't but sometimes they do. It's an exception when they do this.

[@TravelALBERT]

Please make a Video to Warsaw

[@Trainviking]

For now I won't be able to travel that much. When this situation is over, i might do this.

[@TravelALBERT]

@@Trainviking In Poland Corona isn't bad. It's better than Germany or France 😂

[@Trainviking]

@@TravelALBERT thats exactly the point, I'm not allowed to travel to Germany because corona is hitting hard in Holland (for the rest of The Netherlands it's okay to travel, but I'm not allowed to go to Belgium or Germany, so basically I can't travel right now). I don't know how good everything will be checked when you cross the border, so I rather play it safe and stay home. I do have videos until december, so no worries. I will upload videos approximately every 8 days.

[@TravelALBERT]

@@Trainviking ok I hate Corona

[@Trainviking]

@@TravelALBERT HIGH FIVE... made me lost my job, got a new job anyway but not in the railway business anymore and I'm not able to travel... corona sucks.
