This is definitely my new favorite video of so many enjoyable, informative trips you and crew have provided. It is a perfect blend of scenic ride, wonderful towns and history. Thank you, Alessandro and everyone!
It is always exciting to see the scenery here especially up in the train cab it is very beautiful and awesome to see both the city and the rural areas as always a really great train ride Thank You.🇨🇭🇨🇭🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🇨🇭🇨🇭
Had a wonderful ride! Switzerland is absolutely beautiful! If I would have realized a lot of things when I was younger I very well may have chosen to live there! Thank You!!
Typical autumn weather, Switzerland still looks good !! Enjoyed the ride through the towns and countryside, thank you, Alessandro, for providing the recording 😁
That was a fantastic ride. A very quiet smooth train. The rides that seem to go in the middle of the roads of the small towns are very interesting. You can see a lot about each town as you go through it. Thanks for showing me a part of Switzerland that I will never see in real life.
I love all the side-of-the-road running! I suspect some of the interurban railways in the US might look like this if we still had any. There's a very Japanese feel to this as well.
Really enjoy side by the road videos, you can almost sense the atmosphere as the trains ride so close to the roads and cars and pedestrians. Brilliant. Cheers.
4:55. True Swiss on time perfection. Opposite direction train & our train arrive at the same moment and, of course, the church bells ring to tell us everything is bang on time.
Ungewöhnliche Streckenführung, besonders so nah oder direkt auf der Straße. Kann mir vorstellen, für ortsunkundige, im Dunkeln, wenn einem da eine Bahn recht entgegenkommt, bekommt man schon mal einen Schreck. 😉 Ungewöhnlich auch der wechselnde Links- und Rechtsverkehr. Mir fällt da die Ennepetalbahn im Pott ein. Diese wird aber augenblicklich nur als Güterstrecke, bzw. Museumsbahn ein. Danke für's Mitnehmen. 👍🏾😎
Früher kamen noch Güterzüge entlang, damals war die Strecke noch mehr auf der Strasse als heute. Das hat sicher auf für schrecken gesorgt. Man findet einige Bilder im Netz.
Wow, fantastic cab-ride. I would hate to count how many level crossings there are on this route. Here in Sydney where I drive trains, there are no more than 10 level crossings for a network of 370km with 170 stations. Cars and trains just do not mix in this city. I must take a ride on this line next time I'm in Switzerland!
Nice to hear from an Aussie driver! Feel free to contact me and come for a ride when you're here. I'd love to hear about how things work in Australia. I grew up on the Gold Coast myself.
Light rail systems are the most fascinating of all the railways to me. I love watching how they share the roads with other vehicles. It surprises me that there are no idiots parking on the sidelines though blocking the tram access!
Thanks for another great and interesting route. I have always hoping this route was filmed. I have seen the route from Lenzburg to Zofingen and i remember that level crossing in Oberentfelden
My first visit to Switzerland as an independent traveller was in 1981, so I had a chance to ride this hidden gem in its former form and missed it. Your historic annotations are much appreciated as a result. The acceleration is a marvel. Thank you for sharing. Meanwhile, have you managed to drive either of the new freight routes enabled by the Birr-Mägenwil curve? \m/
Would one now. Why? It's not a tram, but it's definitely towards that end of things, and trams routinely run on roads without safety barriers. The reality is that if people follow the rules then the accident rate will be low. The Swiss can be relied upon to follow the safety rules to a very high degree. It's a very positive aspect of their culture.
Oh yes, this is the one that crosses the standard gauge line on the level isn't it. And the one that comes in next to the main line station at Aarau, yes. Very interesting.
Sehr schöne Fahrt mit einer unserer Kleinbahnen die wir immer noch erhalten konnten. Ich liebe es, dass bei uns nicht einfach alles weg kommt, dass lange Bestand hat. Danke für die Reise durch einen Teil des Aargau. Ich wohne ganz in der Nähe, bin diese Linie aber noch nie mitgefahren. Erst jetzt auf TH-cam. Eigentlich schade. War aber trotzdem schön.
Mir geht es auch so. Ich wohne nicht weit entfernt, bin aber auch erst mitgefahren für die Aufnahme. Ich hätte es gerne gesehen als noch güter befordert wurde... und natürlich die alte Streckeführung.
stunning, you'd think one would get bored of these vids...I still very much enjoy them...esp. with new routes. I also love how the train (or tram?) cuts through a city but discreetly.
What a unique gem! Even by Swiss standards, this is a remarkable route, whose roots as a tramway are obvious. I'd bet today's service is far and away the fastest in the history of either arm of the line. Thanks so much for posting 👍
Greetings from Down Under 🇦🇺 Another stunning video! Absolutely beautiful, I love watching these videos. Thank you for going to the trouble of filming, editing, etc, to bring us these remarkable videos! Just a quick question, are there many incidents involving vehicles vs train, since there doesn't appear to be any barriers between the road and rail line or sidewalk? That would never work here, pedestrians would be getting cleaned up by trains all over town everyday & the streets would be littered with wrecked cars... 😂
@lorirocks777 Just watched the video,. Wow, silly people are risking their lives because they can't wait a minute until the train passes. Defies belief.
Something between train and tram. It is much cheaper, than ordinary train, and much faster, than bus. I don't understand, why this concept of public transportation is not used in other European countries. It is excellent for connection neighboring towns to big cities or normal train hubs.
really cool video!! I would just recomend always leaving the max speed at the button right, its always cool to know what speed the train can do at that part of the line and because of how small it is, it is easily "ignored"
I would disagree, if you are watching the screen all the time it is easy to remember. Then you get a full uncluttered 4K experience. Plus the speed pops up enough times due to the speed changes.
I'm impressed by the speed of the train, running through the towns; and yes, so close to the road! I'm not real familiar with trains in the US, so I don't know if it's the same anywhere here.
How many tracks closed in the latest 25 years! It doesn't happen only in Italy... However, very interesting video! It's so curious to see the track and the street side by side without any protection. Expert car drivers?
Bei der Trasseführung in Gränichen verstehe ich etwas an den alten Karten nicht, dort führte das alte Trasse mitten durchs Dorf, durch eine Kurve die viel zu eng ist. Entweder sind die Karten falsch, oder man musste dort umsteigen.
Danke für dein Video über unsere Bahn. Leider hat sich ein kleiner Fehler eingeschlichen. Bei 53:24 - Strecke zwischen Leimbach AG und Reinach Nord: Dort wurde die Strecke im Winter 1986 auf ein eigenes Trasse verlegt. Das steht halt leider nicht in Wikipedia. Ab Reinach Nord bis Menziken stimmt es dann, dass dies 2002 gemacht wurde. Gruss von einem Einheimischen
@@lorirocks777 Ja eben, bei Minute 53:24 steht geschrieben. "Trasseeführung bis 2002 bis Menziken Burg" Das ist sooo nicht ganz korrekt. Ich schicke Dir eine Mail mit Screenshots und einer ausführlichen Erklärung. OK? Liebe Grüsse
Danke für's Mitnehmen, bin gerne mitgefahren☺🍀🐞 Interessant auch, dass der Zug mitten durch die Ortschaften fährt. Ist das dann eigentlich ein Zug oder im Ort eine Straßenbahn? Warum wurde die Strecke nach Beromünster eingestellt?
The logic of trains passing usually dictates passing right side to right side(Swiss trains) in passing loops or stations but this railway does not follow that logic. It is more like first to arrive gets the road. The access to the 'road' being the safest for passengers who would need to cross tracks. So passengers from the second train do not pass in front of a leaving train?
It's more of a train line, similar in style to the Seetalbahn which also shares the road at times. The difference is that this railway is 1 metre gauge, which is the same as used by trams in Switzerland.
@@lorirocks777 Interesting! Probably via Sursee then? It makes sense to link up with another railroad. Too bad for Triengen, though. So that's probably why Triengen has an airport!😄

It starts off looking remarkably similar to Japan aside from the finer details. A lovely ride.
the aesthetics and the cleanness always amaze me ,so perfect . immaculate
Was es alles für Bahnstrecken in der Schweiz gibt!!! Der Oberhammer!!!! Danke fürs mitnehmen und schöne Grüße in die Schweiz!!!!!
I think it’s so cool when the street and rails parallel each other
Amazing trip! Thanks to Alessandro for recording it.
thank you for posting this wonderful rail tour .we completely enjoyed it.
A great journey through the suburbs. Thanks for sharing.
That was a very relaxing journey
Enjoying with a cup of coffee ☕️ & music....Euro vibes🎼😊

It is amazing to see trains running alongside roads and footpaths without safety barriers! One would have to assume that the accident rate is high.
Would one now. Why?
It's not a tram, but it's definitely towards that end of things, and trams routinely run on roads without safety barriers.

Amazing train ride from Switzerland.

Мне очень нравится твой канал 🎉
Schade hat man die Strecke nicht bis Beromünster verlängert, wenn die Trasse schon vorhanden war!
красота)))😊
Merci pour cette découverte très originale: un train à la ville ou un tramway à la campagne telle est la question? 😊 Bravo pour cette vidéo

Another great trip. Thank you. What is the purpose of the cable between the rails? I can try guessing, but I'd rather have fact.
A nice trip :)

In a sense maybe..

Terrible map at the start. It appeared they would be reversing at Aarau. Since they didn't, how did they wind up going in the opposite direction?
Thanks. I take pride in how terrible I can make things. If you look closely we enter from the left and exit to the right. No reversing required.
Is this a train or a tram line? It confuses me on how it merges with traffic at some point.

More like looks as a tram than a railway.
