[@geraiswaiya2347]

Job well done. If you could, I'd be grateful to know a bit more. In particular, I'm curious about the carriage design & door/interior layout. Here in Britain we have the Class 745 Flirts, which have longer carriages and wider doors, whereas the (boarding) doors on these seem quite narrow. The 501 is also fully articulated all the way through. Would be interested if you could shed some light on the choices, thanks.

Well, you and your team did an absolute amazing job, i'm never disappointed with Stadler. Congrat 👍

Its a common thing in Switzerland to enter a long tunnel in pouring rain then emerge the other end into glorious sunshine. I've driven through the Gotthard road tunnel many times and this has happened frequently. Its a lovely experience. Beautiful train and another great video. Always enjoyable , particularly your Swiss adventures. So far , yes, the Gotthard base tunnel is the longest but will it be superseded by the Brenner base tunnel currently under construction?

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I think Brenner will be about 2km shorter than Gotthard? But yes I know what you mean about the weather! ☔ Glad you enjoyed the video! 🇨🇭😃

I rode this train last week from Milan to Lugano. The Swiss trains are truly in a league of their own. I greatly enjoyed how modern and spacious they were, especially when compared to some of the trains I took in Southern Italy.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Me too! 😁

[@MaximeLovino]

Announcements languages vary by routes, it's basically always German and English + local language of where the train is stopping on its route (french or italian) so in this case your train is travelling through italian and german speaking regions only so italian, german and english announcements

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thank you for the information 😊

[@Lukas-ie4xy]

Basically it is just all local languages along the route + English. As almost all SBB long distant services enter the German-speaking area, you will almost always hear German announcements, but there are some peak-hour IR trains that only operate within the French speaking area without German announcements. And I think there are also some IR routs without English announcements, e. g. IR37, but I'm not shure about that.

[@florianmaier104]

To be precise they even switch: They must have been Italian, German, English for Ticino and then German, Italian, English for the remainder of the trip.

[@elgoog-the-third]

Also, to make things even more interesting: there are three different jingles, depending on if you're in the German, French, or Italian speaking part (no SBB service in Romansh regions).

My first time watching your channel. A very well-made and informative video. Not bombarded with information but some useful tips, and letting the camera tell the story. I'm a massive fan of Switzerland and its railways - a member of the UK-based Swiss Railways Society. My favourite Swiss train or route? Gosh, so hard to pick only one. I'll cheat and pick one standard and one metre gauge. On the standard gauge, the BLS old Lotschberg route just pips the old Gotthard route. Note, the new base tunnels on both routes are amazing engineering and really speed up long distance journeys but, as you say in this video, the old routes have the scenery. On the metre gauge, its got to be the entire Bernina Express route from Chur to Tirano.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thanks for your lovely comment! 🙏🏻 Great choices, you should check out my Bernina video 😃🇨🇭

[@avgeekinfotainment7776]

Even as it is a 'glorified FLIRT' from a technichal view (it shares indeed many parts), I totally love the Giruno! It has only two drawbacks: it doesn't operate on the routes I use on a daily basis and SBB has far too few of them on stock😇 Announcements: they are done in german and italian on Ticino bound trains and german and french on trains bound for western Switzerland. And vice versa off course. English is on top on all international and intercity trains. However there are no multi language announcements on regional and Interregio-trains, as long as the do not cross a language border. If they cross language borders, you'll even find multi-language announcements on S-Bahn trains. And on the interegios, where the announcements are not from a record but done by the conductor, it heavily depends on her/his mood and language skills🙈🙃

08:25 Thats what i like about the SBB/CFF/FFS - the language changes from region to region! Typical you´ll mostly hear German and English every time! And then, from region to region French or Italien :-D Some times it even change during the tour. Starting: German, French, English, and suddenly its French, German, English! Sometimes all 4 languages! And sometimes it´s German, Italian and French!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Indeed yes!

[@laurentdiserens169]

I discover your channel with this video and I might want to see every single one!!! As a very regular user of the SBB trains (I live in Lausanne) it's great to hear a foreigner's point of view on our trains and our services, because we are so used to that high level of service, with everything clean, and usable, that we sometimes focus on the things that don't work or don't go well and we forget that compared to other countries, there's no way we can complain

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Yay you liked this video Louis 😄 Honestly one of my favourite trains 🚆🇨🇭

[@schaulinnoam]

The plattforms are the right height! The train has different floor hights to accomodate the diffrent plattform hights in Switzerland, Italy and Germany. Some doors are for the higher plattforms, some for the lower. because of this you always have some doors that are to low or to high. Other trains like the SOB FLIRT trains you mentioned also are low floor but they fit on all doors as they don't exit Switzerland. (Also these copper colored SOB trains are only technically FLIRT 4 sets, they are actually called Traverso and are really liked by the public)

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Interesting to know, thanks 😊👍🏻🇨🇭

[@markoobid2005]

I don't agree, you can see thar at the boarding the platforem level in Lugano is lower than the lowest step of the train. That means it's not even 55 cm high. So it's not the right height. It's written in the video that platform gets higher in the middle, so it's probably only an old unrefurbished extension for some very long trains.

[@samtrak1204]

I agree Swiss trains and scenery are the best. In 2010 I rode narrow gauge trains all over Switzerland and that excursion was simply amazing.

[@vivekshreeni7897]

I must say modern swiss trains are incredibly fast and comfortable to travel in.But we shouldn't forget the contribution of older electric locomotives of sbb such as ae4/7,be4/6,re4/4,re620,ae6/6 and the crocodile locomotives in the development of Swiss railways.After 2000 sbb opted for only trainsets and re460 locomotives as part of the Bahn 2000 project,so I guess these are the last passenger locomotives still in service and will be there for many more years to come.But still I miss the old electric locomotive hauled trains,railcars and diesel railcars.Neverthless your video is mindblowing.Swiss trains are truly enchanting

[@davidroberts6123]

Two favourites: Centovallibahn with opening window set and Bernina Express in an Aussichstwagen- not comfortable but totally exhilarating!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I've done both, and you're right 😁

[@jorgestravels]

Nice video. I like these Giruno, but nowadays I have to say my favorite Swiss trains (appart from glacier express, etc) are the traverso (Flirt 4) from SOB. So well designed with all the comodities you would want inside, big windows and excelent confort. The trip from Zurich or Luzern on the old Gothard line to Ticino on these trains is a must for anyone that enjoys train travel. Also a note on the confort in these trains 2nd class vs 1st class, usually 2nd class is also pretty confortable, but, and this is a big but for me in Switzerland, 2nd class can get really crowded due to the fact that most trains don't have seat reservation, if you get a train that's full you might not have a seat and place to put your bags for example. And this happens a LOT. In summer or during holidays you might want to consider going 1st class just for the space you usually have available and a seated place.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Also absolutely cracking trains! I'll have a video coming up on these soon 🙂 I agree about the reservations, I was on an absolutely packed giruno too (in second), just an 11-car set, first was only maybe half full though 👍🏻

[@wildcraftone]

[@lucasstocker5055]

@@jorgestravels wen you go north from Arth-Goldau the line split in two, if you go north-west you go to Lucerne, if you go north-east you go to Zug and Zürich. The line section connecting Arth-Goldau, Zug, Zurich and St.Gallen is well know to be the most broblematic due to the general tightness off the route, frequent problems with weather and vegetation and high Swiss maintenance requirements at the Bahn Strecke 2000 which is the tunneling section the line use in order to enter Zürich Hbf. I personally know a lot of people that prefer to go via Lucerne for going to Zurich or St.Gallen.

[@jorgestravels]

@@lucasstocker5055 oh those problems, I thought you where referring to problems with rolling stock, like the trains not working properly. The high density of trains on that section really brings some problems, but at least around Zurich they have done some improvements on the lines, the worst situation I think nowadays is really around Lausanne-Geneve, so many problems and no easy solution in view.

[@cantthinkofabettername7016]

People have already commented about the announcements, but basically it's always the local language first, followed by the language of departure / arrival (in case it's different) and English last. Therefore for you trip it would have been Italian - German - English before the Gotthard, and German - Italian - English after. If you pay close attention, you can also notice that the 3-notes jingle before the announcements is different when the train is in a particular region: in Ticino it plays the musical notes F-F-E flat (FFEs), in the German part it plays E flat-B flat-B flat (EsBB) and finally in the French part it plays C-F-F (CFF).

[@davidorf3921]

Great video, favourite train the WAB up to Wengen from Lauterbrunnen, but that's mainly because I am so happy visiting Wengen, Trains in Switzerland are so much easier to board these days, no huge climb up from the platforms, much of this is due to the Swiss trying to make everywhere accessible for the disabled which as resulted in most platforms throught the country being raised from their original levels to a point where there is minimal height difference between train floor and platform. Language wise the trains to Jungfraujoch also give out information in Japanese (maybe Chinese now as well) due to the number of tourists from those areas, English was chosen as so many people learn English as either a first or second language now making it a good choice for tourist anouncements

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I hope it does happen, one day!!

[@lordsleepyhead]

What a great train! Stadler is going to take over the world!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

They already are 🤣

[@graemedurie9094]

We've done this journey several times as tourists, both driving and by train. Our first train journeys were on the old TEE sets, very comfortable indeed. In the pre-tunnel days, the trip between Lugarno and Bellinzona did take longer, but for unhurried tourists the scenery more than made up for the extra time. Given the choice, we'd catch the train rather than drive.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I'd much prefer the trip without not tunnels but hey, progress I guess! You can at least still do the 'scenic routes' too 🇨🇭😄

[@Jasona1976]

If only the USA had such magnificent trains!!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Would be nice, eh 😀

[@samtrak1204]

Cafe car is very smart. That is my favorite car on any train - a time to mix and mingle and share tall tales over cocktails or an ice cold beer. Regardless of menu most vloggers sip Coke or Pepsi which must the global beverage of choice.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Absolutely 🤗

Whenever we are traveling in my birth country. we never rent a car. The Swiss transportation system, may this be PTT buses, Trains, trams or ships is the cleanest, most efficient and safest in the world.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Same for me ☺️

[@ce1834]

Pretty cool with their low floor experience and previous inexperience in high speed trains

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Absolutely yes 😁

[@cogman62]

Lovely train and train ride! I’d live in Switzerland if I could. Even in a tent.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

We have ridden many, many trains in Switzerland. SBB and all of the partner lines do such a fantastice job ! I joke with my friends that if a Swiss train leaves "off schedule", it's because it leaves two seconds early. And yes, I do not mean to leave OBB/Railjet out of things. It is a wonderful line as well. We have taken it many times and have been impressed each and every time. OBB does have a better Seniors/discount program, but they are both ser gute. As far as our favorite route ? Impossible to say, there are so many. For "regular" travel, the Brunig Line between Luzerne and Interlaken Ost is very, very, nice. As far as actual "trains" ? The cogwheel train up to Gornergrat above Zermatt is fantastic ! But, don't just ride that only, there are many, many more gorgeous routes.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Great choices and thanks for sharing ☺️🙏🏻

Several years ago in Arth-Goldau station they announced the one minute delay (sic) of a night express coming from Stuttgart and bound for Milano Centrale and Lecce. Here in Italy (apart from South Tyrol) up to 5' of delay are considered perfect on time!

[@railingaroundeurope]

Great video! Re your question about trilingual announcements - that’s certainly the case on all EC/IC-class services in Switzerland, and Geneva/Zurich suburban lines. Not sure about other local routes. The primary language does change dependent on region though (you may have noticed as you travelled north that Italian was announced first at the start of your trip, but this will likely have switched during the journey)

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Ah thanks Mike! 🙏🏻 I tend to tune out to anything that isn't English lol 😂

[@ravarga4631]

Very attractivetrain in all aspec5s.

[@akaufmann]

Always order Hörnli mit Hackfleisch in the SBB train Restaurant 😁 best dish by far!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

🤤🤤🤤

[@Roger55509]

I agree, it is an excellent product of Stadler and the SBB!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Oh for sure Roger 👍🏻😃

[@roseforeuropa]

Wow! Just found this video from a recommendation. I am thoroughly impressed! Good length and I like how you showed the bathroom and kitchen areas. I was glad to see the various storage compartment and test the cushions on the seat as well. I like how you showed the map in the beginning and walked around a bit for the outtro. This is very good editing! I was however curious to hear the announcements in all three languages rather than just the English. Overall I still think this is A+ quality and the combination of the overcast rain and the train sounds had a very much ASMR vibe to it :)

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Glad you enjoyed it! Be sure to check out my others ☺️

[@manjunatha9707]

Love. Punctuality honesty neatness.
