I would like to suggest "nonstop Eurotrip" to come to China to take the High Tech high Speed train and to find how fantastic to enjoy the business class. If you don't have the time to take the high tech high speed train in China , try to search the videos, then you would find that the high speed train in Taiwan might a bit backward more than ten years in comparison with the high tech high speed train in China.

As a Brit who was lucky enough to quit Eurostar to come and drive 700Ts in Taiwan 🇹🇼 I have to say this is a joyous country to drive in. Coming from the flat East Anglian countryside, looking at mountain ranges towering over rice fields is a joy to behold. I live in Taichung so the things to do to put on your list are, feng chia night market(a Taiwanese thing) earthquake museum, natural history/science museum, opera house and cycle paths up to the mountains. One in particular is a disused railway line which was devestated in the big Taiwan earthquake in the 1990s. Picturesque and a welcome cool tunnel over a km long to get some respite from the hot weather. Nice video as always.

Oh wow, excellent! That must have been a fun move to make. Hope you weren't affected by the earthquakes 🙏🏻

Fun fact: Although the trains are based on the Shinkansen, the railway itself was built to European standards, thus the front design is not as aerodynamic as their Japanese counterparts, the tunnels on the Japanese domestic system are much narrower so a more slanted front was needed.

[@apoorvasharma8147]

And there is India who are close to them yet so world apart in everything. This shitty country of ours can only dream about such magnificent cities & infra. We are doomed & there's no saving. At least our neighboring countries succeeded in elevating common people's lives & here we are living life worse than cattle class.

[@user-rb9gn5ou7f]

Originally, the rolling stock is the combination of ICE1 locomotive with TGV double-deck coach, but we later switch to the Shinkansen system.

[@nolibtard6023]

That was just a proposal by Adtranz, but the "Eurotrain" (as the demonstrator was called) never made it past the demonstration stage. In fact, Taiwan ultimately chose the Hitachi offer since they also offered to supply signalling tech (unlike the European tender). Also keep in mind that Eurotrain consisted of ICE2 push-pull locos, not ICE1.

[@jfilmtravels]

If you are wondering why platforms seems so narrow, part of that is that those were originally TRA platforms, retrofitted to fit the larger trains. Back when this happened, there was some tensions due to the requirement of decommissioning the TRA Taipei depot (which is now a museum).😊

[@Tharit-km9no]

As an Asian who watch a lot of European train trip video from your channel, I wonder how you think about "East Asia countries mostly offer all-facing-forward seat on 2nd class and upper, but Western countries mostly don't do that". Asian people around me said they prefer facing-forward seat because facing backward make them motion sickness easier than facing forward, so I wonder to know are the westerner like you have the same problem or not? For my opinion, un-rotatable seat makes the train have more seating capacity because no need a space between seat row for rotating seat (but also making a ride less comfort due a less legroom), and it's safer to sitting backward (in case of train crash), but facing forward are more comfort for me. Thank you for your opinion!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Personally, it doesn't bother me if given the choice, I will face forwards but it's not a deal breaker

[@speedbirdconcorde001]

I took the Taiwan HSR 6 years ago and the China HSR last month. Both are amazing.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Which did you prefer?

[@speedbirdconcorde001]

@NonstopEurotrip Good question - I'd say China, since their network is well connected, but I understand that Taiwan doesn't have many cities too. I travelled 800km in 3½ hours in China, without the hassle of airport security (they have x-ray machines too, but it's not as strict with the liquids, etc) and having to be there hours in advance. Their newer trains (e.g. CR400 Fuxing) are domestically manufactured while their older ones (e.g. CRH1, 2, 3, etc) are technology transfers from different companies. Quite amazing how China has developed their HSR system in just over a decade. But of course, manpower.

[@Fan652w]

Excellent and very interesting video In a caption, you asked about our favourite SCENIC high speed lines. Except in France, all European high-speed lines have large amounts of tunneling, and are therefore almost by definition NOT scenic. The new lines in Germany are just tunnel after tunnel, with the occasional spectacular viaduct. If you want to see a country's scenery, avoid High Speed Lines, and in the Alps, avoid 'base tunnels'. i suspect that the lack of tunnels is one of the reasons why the Taiwan line was relatively cheap to build.

[@stanislavkostarnov2157]

the cheapness of building is largely to do with lower labor costs for low-mid skilled workers (the professional salaries are lower than the EU but fairly high)... as for scenic lines in Europe... depends on your definitions of Europe and High-speed. Scotland has some really beautiful intercity lines, as does Norway... non of them are true HSR speeds though, mostly running maybe 170km/h or so with bits of 300km/h track

[@Fan652w]

@@stanislavkostarnov2157 The huge cost of European high speed lines (eg the British HS2) is often attributed to the large number of tunnels. Both Scotland and Norway have very scenic railways, but those lines (though some might be called 'Intercity') are certainly not 'high speed'. My point is that if you are travelling in scenic countries avoid high speed lines and (where possible) use 'slow' trains on 'classic' lines.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I think both are correct. But yes I agree if you want the scenery then avoid hsr lol 😂

[@blarfroer8066]

Kind of a cheat, but since the EC from Zürich to Milan is currently using the Gotthard panoramic route because of the derailing inside the Gotthard base tunnel, I'd say the Gotthard panoramic route is probably the most scenic high-speed route in the world :) if we're talking true high-speed route, the ones crossing South Korea are pretty nice.

[@lzh4950]

Yup Taiwan/the ROC inherited numerous practices from Japan from it's colonial era e.g. electrification standards too & some vocabulary e.g. "off-service" (for trains) -> 回送 vs 暂停服務/务. Only the HSR & TRA (intercity normal-speed rail) run on the left though, while subways & road vehicles drive on the right instead. S Korea & mainland China/the PRC have the same arrangement too for left/right running, while Indonesia might be the only country in the world to do things the other way round
