Being a Romanian living in Chicago, I couldn't dream of something so good at such a good price, especially in the USA lol. From what I have heard Romania is planning on building some high-speed lines, meanwhile, Chicago is not. But hey, at least we have been getting a huge upgrade to the blue line on the cta, and new colorful trains! My trip to Ohair has basically been cut in half after they replaced all the rails on that part of the line.

Spain is diferent❤❤

[@himbourbanist]

....16 euros? Damn man a 2 hour trip on Acela here in the US is like 100 bucks if you book it 2 months in advance. Very envious of the awesome rail systems in Europe

Spain 🇪🇸 has the largest hst network in Europe and the 2nd in the world

Entertaining and Informational. Amazing video as always! 👍

[@Simon-Andersen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jeanmichelthuaire5902]

This train is pretty good,not like in France where people from sncf are very very unhonest!

[@markmbalagtas2230]

Spectacular ❤

The hallway near the wheelchair compartment has a movable floor. It can get level with either the inside of the seat area, or the door or the toilet.

Please do a review on Iryo

[@axwleurope9519]

I prefer avlo. The comfort ride is unmatched. Talgo trains have the best tilting system

[@mariadelmarjimenezarroyo2656]

Same for me

[@miquelneutrons]

The problem with Avlo is the frequency and destinations

[@CityWhisperer]

@@miquelneutrons Honestly same for Ouigo. Both are low cost carriers. They function by running fewer but full trains on high demand corridors.

[@miquelneutrons]

@@CityWhisperer well avlo is also not very very cheap comparating to other

Thank you for always delivering wonderful videos. I'm really looking forward to seeing it. I have one favour to ask. It will be a reference when using the toilet, so please take a picture of the scene where the toilet water flows (the flushed water is sucked into the underfloor tank) when visiting the toilet. Please.

[@Simon-Andersen]

I will make a note of it thanks!

[@user-px7xd7gz2j]

@@Simon-Andersen Thank you for your reply. Simply, I'm interested in the toilet system of railroad cars, and it's also a reference when I use it myself, so I'd like to see it by all means. I will tell you so that there is no misunderstanding, but what I want to see is the scene where clean water flows before using the toilet. I'm looking forward to it.

In the minute 4:24 you just past the the Iryo building

[@AS-br8si]

What software do you use to edit videos?

[@Simon-Andersen]

Mostly various Adobe programs

[@AS-br8si]

I also wanted to travel like you but don't have money 😞💰

[@BLACKSTA361]

More Alternatives is always good Forces Company to give reasonable prices and good service as there is always a competitor who could take customers from you Other Countries really miss this where the entire Rail Network is being monopolised by a single company doing whatever they want

[@SirKenchalot]

I think any train video would be complete without a bathroom review but I seem to be losing that argument.

[@Simon-Andersen]

At least here on the Simon channel you will be :p
