Wonderful film. I am laying in my confortable, warm California condo bedroom with a huge flat screen tv. I have traveled by train in Europe many times and I love train travel. Due to COVID and health issues, my travel the last year has been nil. I think I could become an armchair traveler with films like yours…..and maybe that will be my fate. The sound and filming almost made me feel like I was on your train with you. Thank you so much! Sharon Allansmith

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I've only ever been to California once, and that was San Francisco around 10 years ago. I glad you enjoyed the video Sharon and be sure to check out my others, stay safe! 🙂

I did the Californian Zephyr from SF to Chicago . 2 days with fantastic scenery

[@pauljevert1450]

Well done video. I'm a retired Amtrak locomotive engineer in California and I have relatives [cousins] in Sweden who live in Dalarna. I have been to Smaland and Dalarna 50 years ago and rode SJ from Malmo to Stockholm and return. The SJ is an excellent system. I used to run Amtrak passenger trains south from Chicago to St. Louis and Chicago east to Fort Wayne and Pittsburg PA.back in the 1980's to 1990's. I transferred west and ran Amtrak out of Sacramento to Reno/Sparks across Donner Pass and the Coast Starlight from Oakland to Santa Barbara, CA. Keep up you good job showing off the train equipment and comments. I'm glad you took the time to walk forward in the train to take a shot of the historic SJ (Swedish Toaster) Electric motor that was on the point of the train. I used to run Illinois Central R.R. Electric 1500VDC passenger MU's out of Downtown Chicago to the south suburbs So. Chicago, Blue Island, & University Park in 1960's to 1970's. Great video that took me to the place !

As an American who doesn't have full-service passenger train service, I get so envious when i see videos like these. I loved travelling Europe by rail especially on Virgin Trains and TGV - they were so comfortable and relaxing to ride on. I can only wish that my country will one day have coast-to-coast high speed passenger rail - the only way to travel!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I don't think that will ever happen until the maglev/hyperloop speeds are commonplace. Ah well you can always come here and ride European trains 😎👍🏻

back in the late '80s, i shared a sleeper car from copenhagen to amsterdam with 3 people from france & 2 americans... at 1 point, the train broke apart & our section was loaded onto a ferry, which then sailed from denmark to germany... in germany, our section was hooked up with another train & we then went to sleep for the rest of the journey to amsterdam... i loved that experience & seeing the shots of the sleeper cabins in this video brought back those great memories... thanks...

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Excellent yes! It's a shame the Denmark train ferry doesn't run anymore, I'd have loved to have tried it! Good times 😊

Oh, what a perfect night train. I love the dimly lit coaches which look very relaxing for a short trip. The natural wood armrests and wood accents exude warmth and cozy comfort. Most of the night trains I've viewed on KZbin lack decent food or beverage service. Some offer nothing to eat or drink, so it is refreshing to see a lovely bistro car in the consist. I am enjoying taking this journey with you so thanks for the ride.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Absolutely yes. And Trenitalia still think it's ok to run a 21 hour sleeper train with zero catering lol 🤣

I’ve been traveling with train a lot in Sweden since it’s my country of birth, also sleepers but it’s many years ago since I’m now in my 80s and not as fit after back surgery. 😊 Many happy memories from my childhood’s train traveling ❣️

As an American, I loved sleeping on overnight(s) passenger trains; the Amtrak trains on the Los Angeles-Seattle runs, the Empire Builder (Seattle-Chicago runs) and the Wash. D.C.-Orlando runs. Our services include menu choices for three meals, plus snacks, coffee, tea, all day!! The showers spaces were great, also! Many rooms also have their own full bathrooms. Room service is also available. I have never over-night'ed in Europe, but loved traveling around by train. Thank you.

Interesting video, as a Brit I have lived here about 25 years, but haven’t been that far north, I live outside Norrköping and was regular traveller between Uppsala and Norrköping not now. The Swedish rail system is in general very good, trains are more roomy and comfortable. The British system is limited by the infrastructure old bridges and tunnels which restrict train sizes. This has wetted my appetite, good video well done.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thanks for sharing! 🙂

[@Love42se]

Back in the 80’s I studied at the University of Luleå and often took the overnight train when I went home for Christmas. During that period they introduced a bar/cinema wagon last in the train. That was a very nice way to spend the evening before going to sleep, as the train left Luleå around 5pm.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Wow that sounds amazing 🤩

[@JiggyGinJoints]

Sista gången det investerades i tåg i norrbotten. Tågkompaniet var rätt bra, men kunde tyvärr inte lägga ny räls och uppgradera tågen till modern standard. Men älskar att de försökte på sätten de kunde, biovagn och panoramarestaurangvagnen var episka. Vy däremot.... de och svenska banverket har en cirkel i helvetet som väntar.

I’m planning a trip thru Norway and Sweden with my 12 year old son. I hope to organize a sleeper train for at least on leg of our trip. It’ll be an adventure. Your video was really helpful in preparation for our journey. I’m to pass my son to mom in Lyon France where he’ll continue on his European travels. Still looking for the most ideal path to include a sleeper train. Thanks!!

Great video! Have traveled all over Sweden and Scandinavia by train, many sleepers including the 23 hour Stockholm to Narvik train. Most journeys have been really nice but being on the top bunk in a four berth sleeper gets a bit hot with little ventilation I always try and get lower bunks All Scandinavian trains are great……..worst I was on was Romanian trains Two years ago, I traveled all around Europe on trains and ferries using an Interail pass !

I love trains. I'm in the US and have ridden Amtrak Forever...lol. As I'm old now it's good to know the euro trains have loading for wheelchairs and us mobility challenged. I didn't know the trains in Sweden are electric...yes? I love the click clack of rails and missed that in your video..although I bet the quiet would help with sleeping. The gentle sway is still there? Most of my over nite jaunts especially if they are going to involve over 10 hrs of travel, I get a roomette in the sleeper car. 2 single beds 2 seats and meals included. Tea, coffee, juice and bottled water are free with the sleeper car tickets. I love you don't add slot of other noise besides the general sounds of the trip. To many videos get overpowered with music, explanations, and thoughts. Good job on this and wonderful shots out the fresh air windows. I'm looking forward to more of your videos. Thank you for sharing and Happy Rambling!!

JR Travel have offices in all main stations and help find and book hotels and tours.

[@sallymoen7932]

I think train travel is slot easier on a person than plane travel. I like being able to get up and easily walk around, and having a restroom with a shower is awesome. Plus I sleep well on a train, though it takes getting used to the rocking back and forth motion. Kind of similar to being on a boat. I'd certainly love to travel in Europe, especially northern Europe, into Sweden, Finland, Norway. Still, travel with the U.S. on a train is fun and scenic and worth doing. I recently made a train trip east to Colorado to visit my (recently deceased) mom's grave, from my home in the greater Seattle area. Even during winter, the train gets through. I loved seeing the western U.S. from my window on Amtrak.

Looks like a very enjoyable way to travel. I have used sleeper trains in Canada (great) and the U.S. (only average) and I can sleep well but always worry about what I missed seeing. The Canadian trains usually have a dome car so the views are great even at night. Nice shot of the engine (ASEA) and I also like the black scheme, looks classy. Great video, I'd love to see one on the MTRX.

I have never thought of the night trains in Sweden as luxurious, so it was nice to see your comments which brought them in some new light for me. I used to ride these trains to high school when I was a kid. Living on the country side in Sweden I had about 40 km to high school, so every morning I used to catch the night train coming from northern Sweden going to Gothenburg. It was nice to buy a soda or a snack in the restaurant every once in a while. I enjoy these old fashioned trains a lot more than the modern commute trains that run the rest of the day.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Yes I do agree with you. Must have been great as a child too 🙂

[@evawettergren7492]

I've taken a sleeper train in Sweden once... went from Luleå in the north (where I live) to Örebro. I found sleeping to be very difficult, with the rocking of the train and the fact that I got a bit motion sick. Then again. I took a night train in Kazakhstan just a couple of years ago and slept like a clubbed seal for nine hours... but that might have been because I'd been awake for around 36 hours before getting on the train.

When I was traveling to Greece, we took that train to Stockholm Arlanda Airport, just north of Stockholm (from Umeå) and we slept in a coach with six beds and I LOVED IT!!!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

They did look pretty comfortable too 🙂

Beautiful presentation. To the point and very informative. Best wishes and greetings from India. Thanks for the video.looking forward to more.

If you travel in first class breakfast is included in the ticket. In some cities you can have your breakfast in a hotell restaurant instead of in the trains bistro car. When I was working - I´m now retired - I used SJ Night trains almost weekly to go to business meetings all over the country. The price for a private compartment with en suite toilet and shower may look expensive, but compare it with taking a plane AND staying at a hotell it is nearly a bargain! I have also made numerous holiday trips to Storlien (Jämtland) and Abisko up north - always a good experience. If you go back to Umeå then take a look at the modern Umeå Östra (East) station in the university/hospital area - it is an architectual gem! This is the first video made by you that I have watched - GREAT! I think I must subscribe...

Unfortunately no first class on this route 😭 glad your enjoyed the video! Check out my others ☺️

Great review!! Yes I slept well on the 2 overnight trains many years ago. I would opt for sleeping compartment for a trip this long. Thank you Max😀😀♥️♥️

I've never had a problem sleeping on trains. Maybe I'm just used to it after doing so many 😂

I did many a night journey 'on the seats' in Europe and showered at stations. Better than doing long haul in the seats on a plane and more comfortable.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Depends on the distance 😂

Interesting review. As a rule of thumb, you had the better level of comfort in the 'sleeper' carriagee than if you had travelled in the 'couchette' carriage. When I travelled in one of these 1980s sleeper carriages, I had the top bunk and so the swaying motion of the train was quite unsettling, and I hardly slept! An overnight journey in a 1940s heritage train was much more comfortable (probably due to the slower speed). During the 1990s these trains also had a cinema carriage, but with more people using their own smart devices, these carriages, although still in existence, are no longer used as such.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Wow very interesting, thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great vlog really enjoyed it. I have spent 4 days traveling on S.J.from the bottom of Sweden in Malmo to the top. The trains are very comfy and stations super clean .I loved the showers facilitys in Stockholm. I look forward to seeing more of your vlogs and have subscibed.

[@spirostsangarakis8065]

nice.it reminds me a train journey i did back in 1989,when i was sixteen years old from athens greece to munich germany.it was a three days journey

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Wow 3 days! 😆

[@fidokalman]

Everything was clean...even the tracks....Impressive.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Absolutely yes 😁

[@tobiastagresor]

2:37 If you wonder what train is that, that is the Norrtåg (Northern Trains in English) X62 EMU that was introduced in 2010. They operate on lines for example Sundsvall-Umeå and Umeå-Luleå.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thanks for the information 😊

[@jameslovestokyo]

Welcome to my adopted hometown! Thanks for sharing your trip. It's been very interesting to watch SJ lose the contract from Trafikverket to drive the Norrland (Luleå/Narvik) night trains to Vy (NSB/Tågkompaniet) in December 2020. SJ's clever response was to launch this entirely unsubsidised service from Umeå. It seeems to be doing well (often sold out) and has surprised Vy who probably didn't expect the competition south of Umeå.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thank you James, I'm glad you enjoyed this video! I'll have to try the other service the next time up I'm your way, and go for a beer 🍻🤩🇸🇪

[@jameslovestokyo]

@@NonstopEurotrip I’ll start saving now. 🤣🍺💸

[@RobertClaeson]

Vy's service isn't as good as SJ's. The trains and amenities are the same, but the customer service isn't as good if you book direct. Best way is to pay a bit extra and book through SJ and let them take care of dealing with Vy.

I live in the town north of Umeå and Night train is my travel of choice even though it only takes 1.15h by airplane. And sitting up from Umeå to Stockholm is exactly how you think it is. A literal pain in the ass, but it works! :) Thank you for this video, I've missed this so much since the pandemic and look forward to start traveling again. But I'll watch some more of your videos until then :)

hi, eurotrip nonstop! I'm glad to see you, Pete and Dylan again. I'm looking at your old videos that I missed. There, you give me great pleasure by posting a trip to the North !!! I love the North !!! This is where we find the best landscapes, everything I love, everything I prefer, everything I adore, the best everything. It changes the Athenian landscapes, which I appreciate much less. The South hardly suits me. Otherwise, of course I loved your video. A night train, in addition, luck !!! I much prefer the combination you offered us in 9:29 than your bed where you slept. Mom was happy when I told her about a month ago that you can sleep in a night bed in this position and she was happy. She said if we traveled at night, we would travel like this. Mom thinks it's safer. And me too. She has exactly the same thoughts as me. She thinks like me. She has the same ideas as me. In addition, it is much cheaper (so welcome the wallet), so much more accessible for your bank account, especially since we, when we travel, we do a lot of things. We buy a lot of things in stores. We do many places. It's expensive. In short, you analyzed everything well on your train. I love the landscapes of the North, it's happiness, it changes Athenian landscapes. Thank you very much to you !!!
