Mountain Railroad - Train Driver's View - Telgart, Central Europe, SK

[@derekobrien4703]

What a beautiful train journey; well-maintained permanent way, varying degrees of super-elevation on the curves, and glorious scenery to cap it off.

[@donalfholway4395]

A well-maintained line (many concrete sleepers, clean ballast, smooth ride) & nice scenery

[@joaomendes7738]

Belíssima e encantadora paisagem e filmagens perfeitas. Espetacular estrada de ferro, que viagem maravilhosa.

[@OmarAMassa-cq7io]

"Filmagen perfecta"? Por mérito de la naturaleza, porque quién filmó fijó la cámara al frente atrás de un vidrio susio y asi ignora las bellas paisajes laterales. No informó sobre puentes y túneles y, ni siquiera el nombre de las localidades por donde pasa. Muuuuy cómodo.

[@ManuManu-us5mh]

Superbe ! Quelle belle ligne de montagne. Merci pour le partage !

[@David-nl1zt]

What a relaxing video to watch. Great scenery, bridges, tunnels and little villages!

What a beautiful country. You don't know what you have. You're very lucky.

[@ladislavmalak444]

Thank you, sir. :) But some people DO know. Such as myself. Not thrilled about my fellow country-men, though....

[@downstairs99]

fantastic views and tranquil scenery !!!

[@Bigbro28]

Thoroughly enjoyable, and most relaxing (love the sound of the jointed track rails.) Thanks for sharing. 🐨🇦🇺

[@erikziak1249]

I bet you would not love the "comfort" of that crappy two axle motor car. Being a product of real socialism, it is awful. Noisy, slow, jerky. Basically it comes into mind when thinking about why not to travel by rail. Well. Because of that monstrosity. Rather a bus, trust me.

[@arboristo4407]

Beautiful country scenery ❤️❤️❤️ thank you👍🤠🌵🤠

[@rajendrayadav655]

Very wonderful pictures and photography.

[@jankoserdeczny8571]

Piękna trasa. Widoki cudne.

Excelente video, una bella ruta, quizás algún día la pueda conocer. felicitaciones

[@markemanuele1929]

My mother was born in Secovska Polianka, which is not too far from where this was filmed. I have always wanted to see that beautiful area, and you have at least given me a preview of what I will see if I ever get to go there in person. I love hearing the jointed stick rail (very few passenger lines in the US still have it anymore).

[@CSDtrains]

výborný.Tolik lidí se motá u Dědinek po kolejích, to jsem netušil

[@CoppingJ]

Excellent video, thoroughly enjoyed it. Very useful for modellers and potential tourists - clearly "do not trespass" means something else in Slovakia!!

[@mikegross6107]

First video downloaded on my HP all in one desktop computer and it was BEAUTIFUL!

Very nice mountain railway line.

Thank you, wonderful. So picturesque, full of presence effect. A pity that the trip so quickly ended))

[@peterclarke945]

Excellent .... I had no idea what Slovakia looked like. Looks wonderful ..... thanx

[@johnmillard7555]

You are correct! Beautiful scenery, excellent climate and uncrowded. That's why I came to live here. Very nice video.

Um belo vídeo mostrando uma vislumbrante paisagem

[@jcbrito2011]

Oh sim, sim,sim, agradeço pelo seu comentário

[@joann552]

Thank you so much for posting this video-my grandparents were from Sumiac, and my father talked about how beautiful Slovakia is, (He went there in 1922 with his parents to visit relatives.) and how much it looks like our home area of Johnstown, PA.

[@ladislavmalak444]

Šumiac is a beautiful village very close to this train route. Situated just under one of the most famous mountains of Slovakia, called Kráľova hoľa. That part of my home country is really amazing. :) BTW, this train route, including the great viaduct, played the role of the Russian Ural mountains in the US blockbuster Peacemaker (G. Clooney, N. Kidman), just as Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, played the role of Austria´s capital Vienna, in the same movie. Just a few fun facts.

[@orgcoast5990]

Terrific vid of beautiful country.

[@carloafle2552]

Bonitos vídeos de viajes en tren,excelentes ,gracias KZbin..,!

[@jasittongchannel936]

Amazing..a trip great fun.. Thanks.

[@osnica]

One of the most interesting parts of this track is Telgártska slučka. Here the train makes almost a full circle to gain altitude (it's close to 300 degrees) in a long left turn (radius of 400 m) half of it inside a tunnel - you can see the train entering this tunnel at 9:30 - there's a stop right there. In the video, this section is probably edited so the tunnel appears shorter than it really is (it is about 1.2 km long). After leaving the tunnel, the train passes through a viaduct over a valley next to the tunnel entrance (train passes this spot at the 11:05 mark). The height gain is 31 meters. Unfortunately this isn't visible from the train driver's view, but if you google for photos of Telgártska slučka, you'll find plenty of nice images. You can also search for Chramošský Viadukt which is next on the track - trains is passing through at 11:30 and a few folks, possibly eager to take photos, are running for life :) Overall this is a pretty popular track for train fans, even if the trains are a bit outdated and slow.

fantastic ride. thank you

[@claudio.fons58]

Bellissimo paesaggio 😊

[@arboristo4407]

That train whistle is so Euro ❤️

[@darrellcole6311]

love the countryside..beautiful. I was questioning the reason for blowing a whistle before entering a tunnel? noticed that ppl, worldwide, gather near the track even not near the stations. The shortness of the trip. right at 1/2 hour...here in the midwestern USA would call a "puddle jumper" Thanks for posting...enjoyed the trip immensely . Bon Voyage!!!!

[@Ynysmydwr]

I would have thought that whistling before entering a tunnel is pretty obviously to warn anyone who may be on foot in the tunnel of the train's approach!

[@Ynysmydwr]

The video shows only the first part of the trip: the full journey made by these trains (from Červená Skala to Margecany, 93 km) takes 1 h. 42 on average. (See ŽSR, Table 173)

[@lunaticreally1523]

Just awesome view

[@erikziak1249]

Calling that shitty motor car a train is an overstatement. I do not want to ride it again ever in my life! Horrible vehicle.

[@milankanka5329]

Veľmi prekrásne natočené video . Pochvala a palec hore . Perfektné , super .

[@picardie01]

nice ride, beautiful area

[@erikziak1249]

Have you ever traveled in that awful two axle motor car? I refuse to call it a railway car. It is a torture chamber on wheels.

[@VulatrainFr]

Superbes paysages !

[@alexEF74]

Nice! What a lovely track. :-)

[@hartmutlorentzen9659]

Ein wunderbares Video.... Danke

[@marekkoziel8190]

Super dokumenty

[@jamesrivis620]

Great trip reminiscent of Greek railways at the stations. Well maintained track BUT if you have to slow to a crawl to navigate a couple of sets of points then they need to be reconstructed. Also, if there are ANY crossings the operator must sound the horn several times before reaching the crossing and signs are needed to remind the operator.I would recommend a change in horn sound as it can be confused with classic steel on steel screech,

[@Ynysmydwr]

What the train driver MUST do depends on the particular country's rule book. This is Slovakia, after all, not America. European railways are in general far less "horn happy" than the US. Those level crossings (which, as you may have noticed, are much rarer in any case on this side of the Atlantic) and other points which do require an audible warning of approach are signed accordingly. The trackside whistle posts in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (you can see them in this video) look like this: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3b/%C5%BD07-1_P%C3%ADskejte.jpg

Yes, we had very beautiful country here. But pitty, that now in 2019 the whole timetable is reduced to 4 trains (two in one direction) per day. :( I´m happy that I had a chace to see the ladscape from drivers cab from locomotive class 754, but idk about future of this railroute. :/ But beautiful video :) Best regards from Košice. :)

[@trainsandmountains710]

Nice pickup

[@Oligampla]

Beautiful

[@jamesrivis620]

Stop and almost stop around 33:15 must be potential rockfall sites ? Very scary sudden appearance of school trip students along lakeshore tracks and bridges should require very reduced speed in summer season at a minimum as they can be predicted.

[@dougborrett3566]

Nice video, nice scenery a bit more information such as station names/town names would make it more enjoyable for those of us who cannot get to the locations ourselves, Telgart, Central Europe doesn't tell us much, I realise it is in Slovakia but where in Slovakia would be nice to know.

This line is still very important for the region, Regional Express trains use this line today too. And it is not in private hands though.

[@garygranata1401]

what is the purpose of the added rails in between the main rails over the bridge at 9:15? I've seen those in the US too.

[@hughsweeney4870]

gary granata They are there, the extra two rails on the inside, so that if there Is a derailment, none of the cars will fail off the bridge. It is an old practice. Suggest you get a subscription to TRAINS magazine, published out of Milwaukee. The magazine is 65 years old and is the best for people who have interest in railroads.

[@mechanix2]

The trip looked awesome, does the line still operate?? the rolling stock looked kinda old...

[@jairamorim1000]

It's a horn or a football referee wistle?

[@rhbeadlejr]

Why the zigzag lines on the tunnel walls?

[@janpf0624]

If You see thoroughly once again the white line goes downward to the nearest safety niche (bay) where a railway worker (...or even an unauthorized person) can hide.
