This train must have been so overcrowded that nobody could have had 'Ein Angenehme Reise'. The 49-Euro-a-month Deutschland ticket is ridiculously cheap compared to the fares we pay in Britain, but it does create problems.

[@Morpheus0686]

@@Fan652w It is not the ticket, it is the terrible performance of the German Railway since December 2023. Usually on this line are five double decker coaches. On this weekend, all diesel engines weren't operable. So all the people were compressed in one single 612 DMU, which only has two single deck coaches.

Naja abgesehen von den guten Sitzen und dem coolen Sound gibts nichts wirklich, was an der 612er so gut ist. Barrierefrei ist er nicht, deshalb dauert der Ein/Ausstieg auch länger, er ist Laut, er ist wackelig und die Kapazität ist meiner Meinung nach nicht mehr dem täglichen Fahrgastaufkommen in diesen Zügen gerecht.

[@BGFutureBG]

@@Linkyboy_13 Die 612er haben beinahe Fernverkehrskomfort. Die Sitze sind teilweise die gleichen wie im IC/ICE. Dazu geschlossene Abteile, großflächige Tische bzw. ein Tisch an jedem Platz mit Mülleimer, einstellbare Klimatisierung, ... Das ist absolut nicht der Standard für Nahverkehrszüge

Usually, when I help @RailRelaxation with these videos, I'd list such mechanical signalling as "vintage", but obviously my Telco lingo does crop up from time to time.

The Hof - Regensburg line!!!!!!! In the Upper Palatinate or Ober Pfalz in German! Bavaria is truly immense.... Hof station was one of the last to be electrified but the building appears oversized compared to the real capacity of trains and vehicles. Nice line anyway even if it rained often. Weiden and Schwandorf are important nodes. The line that goes to Nuremberg following the course of the Pegnitz river is also nice. But we went along the Naab which is equally worth it. The "wedge railway station" in Oberkotzau with the line towards Cheb is nice. The rolling stock seems to be that of Eastern Bavaria, with the DMUs of Adtranz and Alstom. There are the red ones of DB, the white and green ones of Agilis and the yellow ones of Oberpfalzbahn. The only discordant note was the croaking voice! Too bad! However the line is approved to be electrified and runs well! I was in Regensburg in 2012 and it is a beautiful city on the Danube. If you come back go see Valhalla and the Cathedral. They are worth a visit.

Croatian Railways tilt train from Bombardier

[@ZvonimirZelenika]

Yes, HŽ ordered its 8 trains together with DB ordering 192. There are some differences between the models, some originally but some due to refurbishing done on DB trains that introduced bike compartments and some other changes. It would be great if HŽ could buy some of DB trains when they become surplus (as some lines either get electrified or get new operators using some other train types) as there are only 5 left in HŽ operation - two were lost to major accidents and one is broken for several years now. Also, originally it was Adtranz, but around that time in early 2000s it was purchased by Bombardier. DB will be getting new tilting trains, there is at least a process for ordering new trains for these Bavarian tilting lines but we still need to see who will offer the trains, thought all tilting platforma have more or less ended with Alstom.

An interesting and varied journey in not so nice weather - but that was exactly what made it so special with the wonderful cloud formations 😊 The VT 612 train has a tilting system built in which allows a higher curve speed on routes prepared for it: a maximum of 160 km/h! Unfortunately, there are always disruptions with this, as can be seen on the KZbin channel of @regiotf206, who is himself a train driver and shows the background to his job. The old saying: "If someone goes on a trip, he can experience something" was completely true here: most viewers will not have understood the German announcements on the platforms, but it meant an unexpected delay for the many people waiting. Because the train only has two parts, it was full from the start and the platform announcements recommended taking the next train at every stop! 🫤🙈 Overall, it was a great trip for the video viewers, partly along the river and some small lakes, the route peppered with a potpourri of different signaling technology - I liked it 🤗
