It's nice when they actually invest in the railroad. This particular X2 unit was actually built/delivered in 1993. It was a pretty high-tech train at the time where it tilts/lens in curves, etc. This one was completely revised and upgraded over the last year or two with a brand-new interior, new motors, etc., so it will probably be in use for twenty more years. Thank you for watching!
Hej! Good video will come from you again, thank you for that 👌 To the point: the fun track gauge of 12xx mm doesn't seem to be very common, I hear it for the first time - is there an old (Swedish) foot gauge, etc.? Looks like that redesigned X2, we're starting to have Pendolinos of the same age, here in the East they'll probably be phased out and replaced with new ones when we're so maybe rich - at least that's what I heard 😁🤔
Thank you so much and thank you for watching! 1217mm track was unusual in Sweden. Only four different railways used it (About 160km of track total) and they were all upgrade before 1900 (you can see the different railways here sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sp%C3%A5rvidd_1217_mm?msclkid=002bc664ae0311ec88166c698ef8544b ). The new upgraded X2s look very nice, so I am sure they will be in use for 20 more years. The Pendolinos are similar to X2 in more ways than I realized, with the tilting, for example.
@@TrainspottinginSweden Thanks for the link, it was something I thought. Here the tilt is off the Pendolino, it happened sometime after last summer (this is said to be due to a change in the computer program, nothing has been unpacked yet) oddly enough, the schedules did not change at all - at least here the speed dropped from 200 to 160 km / h. 😁
@@lippa79 Interesting. It is probably cheaper to keep them running without it, with fewer moving parts, and the need is probably less depending on the line and the speed.
Tack för ännu en kanonvideo. Nu är det dax för mig att prenumerera 😎
