Lovely translation of the short verse in Olomouc. You got it spot on

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

@@trupman oh brilliant! Thanks for that. I'm usually terrible with languages. People are always commenting on my mistakes (quite rightly), so it is lovely to hear that i got something right! Thanks for watching too 👍

I have watched this before too, but failed to say that what i find so appealing about your videos, is the way you communicate your pleasure in the journey, and your responses to what you see. It's too easy just to churn out train journeys. Keep going in the same style!

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Ok. I’ll try. That was easy as it was a lovely trip.

Amazing video from beautiful country! Greatings from Hull 😊

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Yes. Not a very fashionable route, but I really enjoyed seeing more of that part of the Czech Republic 👍

Hi, thank you for capturing my favourite route! I'm from Ostrava region and I always prefer to use this mountain/countryside route instead of the main and faster one between Ostrava and Olomouc as I'm traveling every weekend back home from Olomouc where I'm doing my studies :) Have a great rest of the day!

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I agree! I really enjoyed the route, the countryside is so beautiful.

[@16Wilt]

You have a very nice channel.

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Thank you it is lovely of you to say so. I really appreciate it 👍 Oh. And it is lovely that you left a comment on a video that gets very few views but is actually one of my favourite rides! 👍

Train travel in the Czech Republic is beautiful. We propose an interesting route, Krnov - Jesenik, via the Polish town of Głuchołazy. In Głuchołazy it was not possible to get on this train, the army was guarding the passengers and the train.

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Yes, I love the little branch lines just as much as the InterCity services. And yes, I'd love to ride that route another day 👍

[@MrCikina007]

What was the date of your journey? It was probably only a COVID measure if you saw army personel there... As of today, you can buy a ticket to/from Głuchołazy.

[@16Wilt]

This train used to run.

class 460 "Tornádo" was defintily taken out of ČD Fleet in 04/2024 by its final ride from Olomouc to Chomutov on the other part of the country to the open air train/technical museum

[@JohnnyHooverTravels]

Yes, I read about the Tornado leaving service. It was nice to see one in regular service before the withdrawal. Thanks for watching 👍
