The seats are chosen by DB, not by Siemens. DB has has very uncomfortable seating for about 6 years, because they wanted to fit in more people and get cheaper uncomfortable seats. That’s what happens when costs dictate everything.

[@nomis1246]

The seats are going to be replaced in 2021 because many people felt very uncomfortable with them.

[@MichaelDBahnverkehr]

Very nice catches!!!👌👌👌

[@Sergio-is5yk]

Nice Video!!!!👍👍👍👍😜

[@marcostrain]

If you said *Paris Gare du Nord* 🇫🇷, you were right! It's the busiest railway station in Europe with around 222 million travelers per year. 🙌

[@pedrorubiotejero_aka_prt]

How many passengers have Hamburg Hbf? About 200 M passengers every year?

[@javieer9549]

No tendrá más pasajeros que la de albacete cuando hay feria, eso es para morirse, no cabe ni un alfiler

[@ggnnttmm]

@@pedrorubiotejero_aka_prt yes roundabout....it will be extended in future

[@ganapatihegde1024]

Nice vlog! Great presentation. Greetings from Plano, Texas, United States.

[@lbrookesahm465]

I miss the Cream and Red(or green) of the 1980’s DB.

[@robertmansfield2856]

And enjoyable Video. I would have said, that Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof was the busiest station in Europe, although I may be wrong.

[@jmsmilfajt]

Nice video! ICE 4s remind me of Railjets, the interior is similarly designed: same screens, similar lightning and a very similar restaurant car as it's the same manufacturer... but the seats are different! There is a new one going from Berlin to Prague and continuing towards Vienna and Graz worth checking out. 😊

[@marcostrain]

Hi Jakub! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I invite you to subscribe my channel. 😄 I'm aware of the new Railjet routes! ÖBB is doing an amazing work. For the moment, I have never traveled with Railjet but it's on my bucket list and I'm sure it will come very soon to the channel! 👋 Greetings from Spain, Marcos.

[@markoobid2005]

@@marcostrain you don't know what you are missing! Do it as fast as you can, as Railjet definitely is the best Intercity (not High-Speed) train in Europe.

[@tjittekamminga5170]

yes, improved 1class seats would be great PLUS cleaning bins! DB, take care.

[@grambo4436]

I hope you can upload more channel on your content. Also love the ICE 4 train.

[@marcostrain]

I will try to upload weekly videos but I'm a bit busy with my studies... I hope you enjoyed this video! 🙌

[@sick9990101]

Paris Gare du Nord is the busiest one but Hamburg is size wise so much smaller. Basically only 4 plattforms for all regional, IC and ICE trains.

[@captainsteve666]

I don't know why everyone who does trip reports on an ICE takes the ICE 4 or 3 (or T). The best one is the oldest, the ICE 1. And you should also try the Metropolitan ICE, there are only two trains of this one in Germany. There you don't need first class, because second class ist the same comfort expect in the 2 last/first 2nd class coaches on the end/beginning on the train, these two were built new so they aren't good. Difference to first class is the at Place service for food. The seats are the same, the interior. One of them goes every day except one (I'm not sure which one) from Berlin Ostbahnhof to Frankfurt Airport. Number 1191 I think. And it also goes back the same day.

[@pedrorubiotejero_aka_prt]

10:15 I think that's Paris'Gare du Nord or Paris'Gare de Lyon. I don't know what's the most busy station in Europe, but I say it's one of that two stations

[@marcostrain]

You are right! It's Gare du Nord, in Paris. Congrats!

[@pedrorubiotejero_aka_prt]

@@marcostrain Thank you! I'm Spanish and I answered in English in order to all that people in this channel to understand me

[@heavyhauler426]

Have you ridden from Frankfurt to Hannover? I have only seen a cabride but the scenery looks beautiful once you pass Fulda.

[@DanielsUKT]

Very nice trip report the DB iCEs have a good design and I admire the interior and the café and dining car area also the staff were nice to give you chocolates and also the train journey looked nice too can I ask why the annoucements are in french? I think the busisest station in Europe is paris gare du nord not sure Also could be London Waterloo or frankfurt main hauptbahnhof

[@marcostrain]

Hi Daniel! 👋 The announcements were in French because they are displayed in several languages, besides German. And yes, you are right about the busiest train station in Europe. It's the Gare du Nord, in Paris 🇫🇷. Congrats!

[@DanielsUKT]

@@marcostrain oh ok multi lingual annoucements and yes I figured gare du nord would be very busy as its an international terminal and metro goes there too

[@Lorena-vx4rm]

Hello! Could you help me with my doubt: Do those trains (ICD, IC, ICE) accept large suitcases (22kg) in second class?

[@marcostrain]

Hello Lorena! There are no luggage restrictions on Deutsche Bahn trains. You can find more information here: www.bahn.com/en/trains/luggage

[@henribiniossek5349]

Great Video! But one Question, when you walk trough the train or go eating. Do you don’t worry about your luggage?

[@marcostrain]

Hello Henri, thanks for your question and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I usually travel accompanied so my belongings are always watched. When not, I carry my hand luggage with my important things with me. Regards!

[@canto_v12]

Staff didn't clean the bins?

[@martius021]

Paris has the most busiest railway station.

[@laszlosebestyen2134]

Not a bad video. But you should maybe change your camera/camera settings. All window-views show strongly curved rails and other objects.

[@marcostrain]

That's because I have been using a GoPro for window-views. I hope I can buy a new one soon! 😉 I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for your advice!

[@CaptainM792]

So how much does one trip costs for all classes?

[@marcostrain]

Hi M Lau! The ride was included in my first class Interrail pass so I only paid for the seat reservation (is not necessary). The train fares in Germany usually vary according to the advance with which you buy the ticket and the train departure time. I don't know the exact ticket price but you can check the DB website for more information.

[@CaptainM792]

marcostrain Thanks for the info. Please do a Trip Report on the MTR Express in Sweden.

[@marcostrain]

The MTR Express is on my next travel plans and will come very soon to the channel! I hope you enjoyed the video and I invite you to subscribe my channel!

[@Paul91193]

As far as I know it's Paris Gare du Nord🤔

[@marcostrain]

Yes! It's Paris Gare du Nord. Congrats! 👏

[@latheefcherukad2070]

Why all these trains are empty?

[@marcostrain]

No idea! 🤷‍♂️

[@nickcharles7539]

Clapham Junction?

[@marcostrain]

Clapham Junction is the busiest railway station in Europe by number of trains, not by passengers! Here is a hint for you: It's in France 🇫🇷.

[@sick9990101]

that was long time ago even for the UK and it was passengerwize for the UK only

[@itachiuchia3131]

London ?

[@marcostrain]

Not in the UK! 🇬🇧

[@kpdowd4221]

Zurich?

[@marcostrain]

Not in Switzerland! 🇨🇭

[@erikadelgaardnielsen9391]

It can really reach 400 km But in service it's only Allowed to do 250

[@marcostrain]

Are you sure? I think the fastest is the ICE 3 which is capable of reaching speeds up to 330 km/h but it's limited to 320 km/h.
