★ 200km/h 🇨🇭Cab Ride Basel SBB - Bern, Switzerland (InterCity) [05.2018]

Welcome aboard an InterCity service between Basel and Bern. We'll be travelling on the new "Bahn 2000" line between Olten and Bern, the only line predominantly in the open to allow speeds over 160km/h. The Gotthard and Lötschberg base tunnels being the remaining high speed lines.
The video depicts the current state of the line. In the near future I will be uploading a video of this route as light signals were still operated alongside the ETCS Level 2 (Cab signalling).
Interesting on this trip are the various construction zones along the way and how they have been transforming the railway since. In Wankdorf (52:47) for example, where they are building an underpass to allow trains to cross paths without obstructing each other's paths.

Thank you for the captions explaining the tunnels, bridges and other lines. Very helpful in understanding the line.

[@billbohlen9700]

Thank you for posting this interesting trip. I couldn't believe my eyes where this line took us. I remember the Bern-Basel line in the early 60s. This of course is much faster. I see in 2004 they built all these new tunnels. Living down under now, I am proud of the SBB Organisation. They can show the world how a railway system should be structured and run.

[@lorirocks777]

Glad you liked it. I'm pretty happy with the SBB too - but many people still have complaints. I supppse the better a company is, the higher the standards become of the customer.

[@TheFirewing1980]

Alles in allem, eine schöne Mitfahrt
Endlich sieht man mal die NBS aus Lokführersicht.
Zwei kleine Kritikpunkte möchte ich noch anbringen.
1. Schade, dass es nicht mal einen Blick auf den Tacho gab, um zusehen ob wirklich 200 gefahren wird.
2. Der Grauholztunnel wurde 1995 eröffnet.
Vielen Dank fürs hochladen.

[@lorirocks777]

Danke.
1. Führerstandsinstrumente in öffentliche Videos zu zeigen ist eine Grauzone. Wenn Sie mir eine Bewilligung beim BAV organisiere mache ich das gerne.
2. Danke für die korrektur.

[@TheFirewing1980]

@@lorirocks777 Bitte gerne.
Okey, ich wusste nicht ,das man für einen Ausschnitt der wirklich nur den Tacho zeigt, nicht alle Instrumente, eine Bewilligung braucht.

Warum interessiert sich das BAV für so etwas ?Dem Eisenbahn Bundesamt ist es ja auch egal ob jemand Führerstandsfahrten macht, und was er zeigt. Außer die EVU könnte was dagegen haben, aber das ist extrem selten.

Hi Lori, great trip again always enjoy your filming, I have a question please,along the track side are signs
blue back ground with yellow arrows pointing towards the tracks, what purpose do they serve its got me baffled? thanks TG

[@lorirocks777]

Thanks. They represent signals in the cab signalling system know as ETCS.

[@trevorgarner5803]

@@lorirocks777 Thanks for answering my query,it all adds to the use of today's rail signal technology. TG

[@jameswoods9238]

From that point, the train was going to go back the way it came in and switch tracks at Wankdorf and head first to Thun and then on to Interlaken, I know that from reading the sign up above the the platform to that track, saying what the train's next destination was.

At 30:23 the locomotive at the end of the train in Olten crossed the second switch from this train. 9 (!) seconds later it was put correct for this train and we got a green signal. Amazing quick!

[@lorirocks777]

Yes, as soon as the track is relayed back as being empty, the new path can be set.

[@SergeT0925]

Thanks for fine video, Lori! Switzerland is beautiful! I wonder, why there is no light in the tunnels. The driver controls the way with an LCD monitor, radar / infrared / ultrasonic? And why there are few passengers on all stations?
'

[@xeetzer5478]

Why would there be light in the tunnels ? (Sorry, just normal for me here in Switzerland). For the number of passangers, I believe it's because mostly commuters take the train at those stations. I was on the first station (Liestal) one time at peek hour and there was at least a hundred people boarding the (absourdly long double deck xD) train.

[@SergeT0925]

​@@xeetzer5478 Thanks for Your answer! I asked why the drivers don't switch on the train's front lights after entering a tunnel. Do they use some kind of night vision devices? It seems unsafe to drive in total darkness...

[@elperenza]

@@SergeT0925 on the 200 km/h section there is the ERTMS, which doesn't have conventional signals, because all of the info regarding speed and line clearance is relayed in the cab, eliminating the need to look out for signals (except when needing to stop, as you have to stop before the next marker, the blue square with a orange arrow), and also tells the distance to the next marker to ensure speed limits and stopping positions are respected.

[@mandalaxxl]

Mit einem Tunnel zwischen Breitenbach (bei Laufen) und Solothurn könnte man Basel-Bern direkt in 45min. schaffen und der Hauensteintunnel und Olten wären entlastet.

[@petermauderli]

Danke für die Führerstandsperspektive einer sonst bekannten Strecke. Warum wird der Zug in Lausen abzweigend vom Durchgangsgleis ans Perron geführt? Ist das der übliche Fahrweg? Danke und eine gute Zeit wünsche ich dir.

[@lorirocks777]

In Lausen ists einmal so, einmal so. Ich denke es komme oft darauf an, was für ein Zug als nächstes kommt. Wenn als nächster einen Zug mit halt in Lausen kommt, macht es mehr Sinn über das mittlere Gleis zu fahren, damit der Fahrweg schon offen ist für der hinterher kommender Zug sobald die Weiche abgedeckt ist.
