Happy 4th of july 2023 to ALL american train's fans
Thank you for reviewing my country’s high speed train! Great Video!
Greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸
Pozdrav iz Srbije 🇷🇸
Thank you very much! Greetings from Denmark
I came here while sitting in the train just say how great experience this is! Quiet, fast, clean, modern… they will come to ask if you want to order a drink and then once to validate a ticket. Better than in lots of trains in Europe 😊
Couldn't agree more!
Fantastic, thanks for the Narration, it is a so much more enjoyable tour to just watch the video and not lose a single segment of it trying to read long texts. The train is awesome, so modern and state-of-the-art.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@Simon-Andersen In germany, there are alot of new trains built by Staddler, replacing the older ones. It seems alot of european countries enjoy those new trains.
This was beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you :-)
First time seeing a double decker train.
Лепо представљање Србије, хвала...Шумадинац
👍
Fab video mate. They're excellent trains, very similar internally to Westbahn's one. There's no first class? Great to see the investment in Serbia 👌🏻
There is, it's on the upper floor of one of the coaches where I went on the bottom floor. It was fully booked 👌
Actually these were made originally for Westbahn, just not needed in the end. That's why they can do 200 instead of 160 kmh and that's why they done in the older Stadler Dosto design instead of the newer KISS design modified for the European crash safety standards implemented in the mid 2010s. And they were delivered in this Soko delivery in less than a year from the ordering which should be 4-5 years novadays for a standard new order.
Thanks for covering this we really appreciate it
My pleasure! Happy you enjoyed it
That’s really good news, I hope it brings more economic benefits to their countries.
Looks comfortable and clean, would love to see more of these around the world.
That looks amazing, definitely and upgrade. My last time in Serbia was 2018 and i will probably go there again in April
Works on the section Novi Sad - Subotica started a few months ago, it will be completed by 2024, and also Hungary started working on their part from Budapest to Serbia (although with 160 km/h limitation but that's the same basically). Also project documentation is prepared for Belgrade - Niš, so Soko Stadler trains will have longer journey in the near future than this 80 km. Also construction of station building of Belgrade Center (on the concrete plate above tracks) will start probably by the end of this year, it will be built by private company and in return they will get office space around the station.
10:11 those tracks on the left are abandoned railway tracks for the Old Railway Station (1884-2018) in city center, they are removed now, so old railway bridge across Sava river is also not in function anymore and will be probably turned into pedestrian-bicycle bridge.
Intresting! Lots of good development going on in Serbia. Good to hear that Belgrade Centar finally will get something above the concrete box!
@@Simon-Andersen We are just doing now what we neeeded to do years ago,since railway service and infrastructure was great up to breakup of Yugoslavia, but in years after mid-90s there was almost zero investment in both trains and railway infrastructure because railway service was considered secondary to bus, since bus is much easier to operate,now they finally realized they must change that.
@@Simon-Andersen Belgrade Centar will get a main station building ( with a huge ticket office, some shops, entry gates, airline check in machines and so on) also a business district will be built. Next to the station all new developments will take place (current BIP complex will be destroyed and also Malesko hill will be flattened) As far as transportation goes it will get a direct acess from the other side to the highway, a metro line and trolley lines will serve the main enterance directly.
@@ironfoxzone2252 Yes but construction seems to be very slow on the station building. The station has been finished for years now but the station building is still a bunch of pillars and empty construction vehicles.
@@peeryoutube Construction starting 8.8.2022 and finishing september 2023
Одличан видео. Све похвале. 💝
I took this journey in 2012 - the train was an ancient two-carriage rustbucket with compartments only. This looks much better
Indeed, the new suff is up to standard with most of Europe
Soko/Coko trains are based on the Stadler KISS type. Although they are shaped like conventional trains but are designed as high-speed trains, there is something you should know that Stadler Rail will do a joint venture with PT. INKA is a train manufacturing company from Indonesia. The factory is in the city of Banyuwangi
I did not know that. Stadler makes great trains so them coming to Indonesia is great :D
@@Simon-Andersen Please come to Indonesia if you have a lot of time😄
@@odiliusrailfans One day i might :-)
Stadler KISS are one of my favorite bi-level trains!
It can go both ways ;)
Congrats😃
I tried this train from Belgrade Centar to Novi Sad and vice versa. The train is fast, modern and comfortable. As Novi Sad being number two city in Serbia, I wonder why there's no train or bus from Belgrade airport to Novi Sad. Taking a taxi from the airport to Belgrade Centar station is very boring because taxi drivers always want to take advantage of tourists. As I am Brazilian and this was my only complaint in Serbia.
like the Austrian Westbahn... very interesting
Having recently graduated from Jack Tiano's School of Rails, I suggest that, given the 200 MPH speed, that the line remove all 30 MPH curves, as opposed to relaxing the brakes after ever run.
Thank you...
Thank you
In Serbia. We have 30 new stalder trains, 3 new stadler KISS trains and 20 new russian trains. But, train stations and rails in Serbia are in awful conditions.
Fantastisk tur,og jeg håber at du har haft god oplevelse😊
Det havde jeg :-) Serbien er skønt land
Hello brother love from india how to book tickets in soko bullet train planning to visit Belgrade and also Novi sad
On the website (only in serbian but google translate somewhat works) srbijavoz.rs/ or just at the station :)
Average speed is 173 kmh . 80 % of the trip goes 200 kmh .
The average is 125kmh
@@otorinolaringologija6227 If 80% of train speed is 200 kmh how is possible that average is 125 . Be nice, explain me .
@@STASHYNSKYI 80% number is your claim... math says average speed is 125km/h... 75.000m / 2160s = 34,72m/s or 125km/h
i mean we really dont need like japanes bullet trains,we dont have like 10000000 passingers a day
just one moth wait serbia i wiil come
This service will Help Serbia for 50 years and after 50 year Upgrades will be made.
Skidegod video! Hvordan er Serbien som land at besøge?
Tak :-). Massere ting af se, godt byliv og god mad til billige penge, hel klar anbefaling her fra.
Мange pen er besøk Serbia
SERBIA MAY BE GOOD BUT CANT COMPARE TO OUR TRAINS. THE TRAINS ARE FIREEEEE. SO FAST SO GOOD.
and by fire I mean our train really catch on fire. this is just joke BG
hello im serbian and that train is very fun to be on
😁
I built this Train :-) 😂🙃
Nice info .. i Will visit Belgrade on September.. i think coko train better than bus.. What the name train station in Belgrade?? Can i buy train ticket walk in?? Possible if i make round trip for sameday novi-belgrade??
Station is Beograd Center, yes you can and there are many trains each day :-)
@@Simon-Andersen ok.. and how about the transportation from the station to the center of Novi Sad? Is it the same as in Belgrade, there are many buses or trams that are easy to find?
@@rismasarr In the first couple of seconds of video you can see entrance to Novi Sad rail station. In front of the station there is a semi circle shaped square with multiple bus stops, in order to go to the city center you need to go to the furthest right stop (looking from station perspective) and catch public transport bus number 4.
@@markomaric1907 thank you
With gas's prices now, even 1200 ,- would be better choice for frequent komuters.
Car costs at least 3000,- for gas and about 700,- for a tool.
Car is better choice for a family trip.
What train station in Belgrade does the train arrive and depart from? Is it Prokop?
Centar / Prokop
@@Simon-Andersen Is there any fees for luggage? If yes, how do we pay it?
As we will be coming from the airport, we will have 2x 20kg suitcases, 2 cabin bags and 2 backpacks.
@@derekm6200 No luggage fee as far as I'm aware, so as long as you can carry it yourself should be no issues
8:21 - that thing in the cloud scared the hell out of me. I thought there is some huge structure behind the fog/cloud
No intentional jumpscares here, but I see what you mean 😆
🇬🇷💞🇷🇸
Serbia will be the most rustic European city and yet be the most technologically advanced because they have partnered with the China. They will be one of the few if not the whole nation under 5G whereas other European nations are behind in this. 5G will improve every aspect of life there.
China is bad for the whole world. It will be our biggest enemy in the 21st century. It might look good now but trust me, they are worse than Russia.
7:36 😛
How much does it cost to travel from novi sad to belgrade center
430 dinar
What times does this train depart from belgrade?
What times does it return from novi sad?
Looking at doing a day trip.
I did a daytrip, trains run about every 1-2 hours check the website for exact times srbijavoz.rs/
IC trains run hourly from both cities at full hour (9.00, 10.00, 11.00,...) With Regional trains in between
Bro that entry of the soko looks exactly like the westbahn wtf
Yes ive heard its very similar too. Maybe they saved some cash by copying :P
@@Simon-Andersen Slots for production were just allocated from Westbahn to Srbija voz, it made them arrive in record time but that means these are exactly the same as wstbahn (same seats, and everything)
@@ironfoxzone2252 Why changing, if it's perfect ?
Its better than this in switzerland better euq in switzerland thay do nit have wfi and the sits are bether in soko and thay do not have caffe bar only for jurneys more than 350 km thay have
how much did u pay for ticket?
4€
Train appears to be an Italian design.
It's actually Swiss build by Stadler based on the design for Austrian Westbahns similar trains
50 years late(r), we finalyl have a train worth mentioning. Sadly, it's the only one worth mentioning.
You get some points for Beograd - Bar too :-)
@@Simon-Andersen I once traveled 15hrs to Bar via train. Departure at 11pm in Belgrade, we was in Valjevo at 5am lol. Luckily we had a sleep car.
@@Pe11ePD daj Valjevac ne pametuj mnogo! Srbija se gradi ubrzano! Kinezi rade autoputeve, pruge, Arapski Emirati rade Beograd na vodi , aerodrom i mnogo toga. Tu su i Braca Rusi sa NIS-om
@@bgd.11 ja pametujem? To je bilo tipa 95e godine. Od tada se svašta izdogadjalo. I nisam Valjevac. xD
The next line is novi sad-subotica-segedin
China, can do, very professional.
US .... eh ... yeah but not really.
This train are made in china ?
No these are Swiss Stadler kiss trains :-)
I got it; you are a good reader of long narrative texts. This is TH-cam though; hence, viewers need to "see" the experience and not to listen some brilliant readers. Also, avoid moving quickly from one point to another point of the scene. They're eyesores and distracting.
in cacak they look difrrent
Weit novi sad subotica
And belgrad nis
Then nis belgrad to
Budapest 2024/25
NADAM SE DA POSLE GODINU DANA NEMA DA IMA GRAFITA.???????????
Nema
Nece ih ni biti. Problem sa grafitima jadino imaju vozovi koji stoje na otvorenom. Svaki od ovih skupih vozova stoji u hangaru / garazi okoliko se ne koristi. Tako da, bez brige, nece firma ni dozvoliti da stoje grafiti na ovakvim vozovima, to bi bila bruka.
CNN BBC not to report this 。。。。。
Well done Serbia. Look east to China and work towards greater prosperity. Catch up to Western Europe.👍👍
Thing is the REAL reason why its cheap is due to promotion(now extended) promotional period and also due to goverment subsudising it so it maintains that price.
While its great for people its BAD for countries/local city budget due to being forced to subsudise the ticket wich is another thing that is basicaly taking/reducing the budget of country/city.
So instaed of that money going into otehr much needed things instead it goes into subsidisng tickets bcs the original/real price of the ticket was around 1000-1200 dinars.
Intresting regarding the price, i did not know that. I dont know much about the Serbian economy but 1000-1200 dinars also seem sustainable
@@Simon-Andersen don't pay much attention at these kind of comments, Serbian people simply enjoy complaining all day long. It is the biggest pass time activity in this country, complaining about everything.
@@Simon-Andersen But the promotional period is over. In the promotion period it cost 300 dinars.
@@zograf4572 Same in Germany, we also like to complain about anything and everything :D

i am from Serbia and i am not to mucth proud on this train because of amount of money spended on modernisation of serbian railways and results. More then 1,5 bilions of euros was spended on modernisation but the most of serbian train stations, railways and trains was in awful condition. Only 15% of serbian trains was in condition that can be called satisf..
Our governabt says: we can not compete with Poland or i do not know, Romania, both are countries EU members, they can use EU funds to modernise their railways. Ok. Thats true but. Result of 1,5 bilion of euros modernisation in Serbia are not equal to amount of money, 1,5 bilions of euros. I hope u understand me, my english isnt so good.
I can't comment much on the political aspect of it. But the expirence i had traveling on it was great :-)
@@Simon-Andersen this is just one train + maybe 10 trains in good or exellent condition. Rest are in awful condition. Train stations looks like after atomic bomb almost. The most of rails are super slow, i like slow rails and slow trains but i do not like super slow trains and rails. Trains in Serbia are not supe rslow but rails are. I prefer AMTRAK trains more then super fast european trains, for example. But i do not like rails for 20km per hour.
