I wish SNCF and RENFE would get on board and take sleeper trains seriously again. I love RENFEs Trenhotel, but they've been cutting the routes so much. The west of Europe really has been left out. A Brussels/Koln to Barcelona/Madrid sleeper would be amazing. (either using high-speed lines, or a Talgo set on regular track). There's a TGV Brussels to Perpignan but only as a day train which is a real time-waster, and hardly a comfortable journey, and having to do that *then* change again to an onward train is absurd in the 21st century. We want a god damn sleeper with a god damn shower and a nice menu with those nice fluffy rolls you get on Nightjet, godammit. Oslo to Frankfurt/Berlin is a real missing link too - Norway really has fallen off the map.

"NightJet has almost single-handedly saved overnight rail travel in Europe". Pardon? In *Western* Europe. Sleeper trains have never been interrupted in Nordic, Central and Eastern Europe. I don't know why West Europeans always believe that Europe is limited to their part of the continent

As someone living in Germany, I can safely say that rail service in Austria feels superior. In my experience the Railjet/Nighjet trains have always had functioning wifi and air conditioning, and the stations throughout the country feel far more modern than Germany. Hope that in the coming years the DB goes through a large scale modernization of its stations and infrastructure.

Actually, it is the “modernizing” of DB that is the problem. Unlike OBB, the politicians and managers in Germany demand that DB act in the way they think a private corporation should act, to pursue profit. So everything DB does is focussed on getting an outcome as cheaply as possible. So they give minimum service, minimum repairs to their trains, minimum amenities to passengers, minimum customer service, minimum comfort on trains, minimum track servicing. Instead of focussing funds on core operations, they spend grandiose amounts on megaprojects like the new Stuttgart station and putting in high speed rail everywhere, even though it is massively expensive and isn’t needed by 95% of passengers. They also drain their funds on corporate empire building by acquiring companies in other countries. Now they don’t even buy loks from German companies anymore, instead they are buying them from Spain. Overall, DB is the ugliest collision between a once-glorious train service and extreme neoliberalism. Thank God, OBB and SBB have not been so badly infected by this deforming disease as DB and seem to have more sensible and grounded leadership.

As far as I know, the confirmation of delay (27:30) is not only so that you can justify yourself to your employer or something. With 120 minutes delay or more, according to the European Rail Passenger Rights, you are also entitled to a refund of 50% of the ticket price.

Tried the NJ in September. We arrived in Vienna 45 minutes late, which was ok, but during the night, we had no electricity. That means no light, no water, no flushing toilet and no air conditioning or even fresh air. That spooked me in the tiny Deluxe jail cell, so I went looking for an attendant somewhere in the train twice. They couldn't fix it, but somehow everything worked again at 4h40. I filed a complaint and half of our ticket was refunded for the technical breakdown. The delay of 45 minutes wasn't enough. Would like to try the NJ again though.

You need to know, that this day, a huge flooding in the west of Germany between Aachen and Cologne, the south of the Netherlands and Belgium occured, that destroyed many railroad track, as towns and did cost many lives. A 2 hour deleay is more than reasonable for this trip. Your train also might be the last train on the track between Cologne and Aachen before it got destroyed before the huge flood occured. The rain destroyed a lot in that region and your video might show the last appearance of the old tracks.

just a few adjustments to your videoblog: the tables from your cabin are not supposed to be stored where they are now. the breakfast in included in the price. it has already been paid for. however, a certain amount of items are included. any extras are available at cost. a refill is free in sleepingcar, however it must be either coffee or tea.

Wanted to take that train the other way around, but corona just fucked everything up. so scheduled to next year. Gonna start in Aachen (my hometown), head to Vienna and from there on further to Slovakia. At least, now I know what to expect from the train, so thanks for the video ;-)

It's fun to see how almost every European rail company has stopped running night trains because they are unprofitable, and ÖBB is expanding it all over Europe because they can run it with a profit, even without subsidies.

no. they cant. on certain particular lines they might get +- 0. but overall this is the result of a countryvhaving the interest in establishing a rail communication network because it benefits them. öb where asked ti expand in to the nordics but as there where no subsidies available at the time they declined.

@@johndoe1909 Too long distances with too few inhabitants. And restrictive rules for trains in the two tunnels to and from Zealand. It's much better to focus on continental routes. In ten years, maybe, when the new Danish-German tunnel is ready, if demand for night trains then is sufficient.

@@jmolofsson The issue is that Sweden, Norway and Finland all have night trains of our own, and Denmark isn't exactly the hottest market. It's more likely you'll see SJ open up more of the old sleeper routes they used to run.
