Nádhera. Jako chomutovák jsem si s povděkem virtuálně projel naší trať 137, která je sice krásná, ale co se týče kvality železničního svršku u nás a v Německu tak Němci jsou o hodně levelú výš. Taky se mi líbil ten pozdrav výpravčího v Cranzahlu.
Opět velice pěkné video. A co se mi líbí nejvíce je jak na konci v Cranzahl železničář (přednosta stanice?) zdraví... Čepici dolů! 👍🙂 Wieder sehr schönes Video. Und was mir gefällt am meisten ist wie am Ende in Cranzahl der Eisenbahner (der Stationvorsteher?) grüßt... Die Mütze ab! 👍🙂
What a delightful ride through the Czech/German countryside! Thanks. I am wondering, however, why the line was built (presumably by the BMB) in the first place. It seems to run from a minor place to another minor place through nowhere. It cannot have been economic. So many winding S curves, I suspect to keep the build costs down, to take the line around hills rather than through them. Plainly an area for hiking holidays and looks like accommodation in converted rail coaches and wagons. Hope the accountants don't find out about this line! 🙂
This 1872 opened line from Chomutov to the border to Germany was built by the private Buštěhradská dráha (BD) which owned several lines in Northwestern Bohemia with a main between Prague and Cheb. To establish the connection towards Chemnitz the Kingdom of Saxony realised the part to Cranzahl and further to Annaberg. Main reason was the coal transport from the Ore Mountains that extend along the border between GER and CZ as well as other goods and passengers. WW II cut the connection between both countries. It was reactivated in 1993 as a passenger line, back then the historical Saxon Steam Railway got there coal via train from CZ as well. Since 2007 it is only used touristically with trains running on weekends and holidays between April and September. As of today, Chomutov has a population of nearly 47k, the station still is a junction of four rail lines.
@@coswiger Thankyou for your informative reply. I'm sorry having called Chomutov a 'minor place'! I will have to find my book on railways in Bohemia and Moravia for a better undestanding. Incidentally, when did the place names change from Austrian German to Czech (e.g. Präg to Praha, Ëger to Cheb), presumably after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Well, when the line was built you were right. But the railway helped to develop the region and some cities grew alot. The names have been changed from 1946 to -48. Due to tradition you still can find them in German maps (even Google), some publications and mostly when (mainly older) people talk - on both sides of the border. As a Saxon myself, I prefer to use the Czech names after all. History is one thing, but times change so we have to keep up, right? I see it as a sign of respect for eachother.
@@coswiger Thanks once again for the info. I agree the current names should be used. Pity poor Lviv having had 3 previous variants - Lvov, Lemberg(WW2), Lwow, Lemberg! But I digress. :-)

Thanks and greetings from Germany 👍
Thank you for an unusually interesting video!
Jako vždy super video 😮
Dzięki za przejażdżkę !!!
Super videjko👍
Pěkně udělané.
A pleasant enough journey spoilt by the constant talking in the cab. 🇬🇧
In Cranzahl werden einfahrende internationale Züge noch vom Stationsvorsteher persönlich begrüßt. 😊
Is it possible to show us what the train, engine, looks like before you start? Thanks wonderful video from Long Island NY.
I was only a passenger, I just left the camera in the cab and then picked it up.
The train was this one: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RegioSprinter
@@mikulda2 thank you.
Eine landschaftlich schöne, vernachlässigte Nebenstrecke! Danke dafür!

Well, there's always the name the locals officially use. Would be Lwiw here. I also switched to Kyiv after what started in UA last year.
