What a perfect Central European travelogue. Trains, stations, rain, coffee, beer, tiny sleeping compartments, professionalism, meticulousness, pleasant accent and not one smile on any of the photos! ;) can't wait for the next parts, love the format, great to have you here from a Varsovian subscriber :)
For quite a while you’ve been explaining things to us that we had never even thought about but are now happy that you have elucidated for us. Now with your first dive into trip report territory, you even threw in a bomb scare! I can’t wait to see what you add next to your repertoire, and I’m sure it will surprise and inform us. Thank you and kudos for all you do.
Thx bro, really looking forward to Belgrade Budapest line being fixed, I had opportunity to travel from Vienna to Belgrade and it was exhausting. Other than that Soko is amazing
Hello from Polish subscriber (or "Hej!" in Polish)! As a person who discovered your channel recently, I got extremely keen on your way of explaining the characteristics of railway transport. I hope I'd make up all of your previous videos 😅 Greetings from Silesia metropolitan area, it's nice to see there are many more train transport fans ❤ P.S.: don't worry about the delay. Warsaw's authorities undertake a huge project of rebuilding the city railway intermodal junction. It might last as long as a few years, currently all of the elements of rebuilding are planned until 2030.
I really enjoyed your first trip report video and would love to see more. It combines your usual excellent factual explanations with the excitement of a long journey. It was interesting to get an idea of the things you saw and did along the way. Keleti station looks really beautiful and appreciated getting such a good look at it.
Very good travel description! I do prefer the part with voice-over to the part spoken live, because the selection of images is much better and consequential.
So cool you're from Serbia! I did an interrail trip through the Balkans last summer and it was awesome! I would love a video on rail in Serbia and neighboring countries, a lot seems to be planned :)
Been watching for so long, it's finally great to see the faces behind the channel. Big fan of this direction. Love the more personal touch and, as always, the lovely diagrams and technical details.
Thanks for the trip report, I'm pretty sure railfans and many others appreciate your future efforts. There can be a lack of interest from the English-speaking train world in the affairs of that eastern part of Europe, so I am glad to hear more about it. Also, very great to see those model trains being used to explain the different coaches of the train! I still have my Roco trains with me.
Dear RE thank you for this video... There are 82+1 videos so far, I've watched them all, there are a lot of good ones, but I might have enjoyed this one the most... This is something different so far, this is a video about a wonderful experience and we even had the opportunity to meet three of you... I would like this to be a video that will attract a large audience so that you have additional motivation for similar content in the future... all the best ❤
It was different to the usual videos,but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. It sounded like an enjoyable albeit long trip, though your time in Vienna sounded a bit chaotic towards the end. I'd love to see you release more content like this across Europe. You should defo come over to the UK for that matter and do a trip report on the Eurostar, the LNER service on the East Coast Mainline from London to Leeds/Scotland or maybe on the West Coast services from London to Liverpool/Manchester/Glasgow. Either way, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see more of these trip reports.👍
Loved the video, thanks! Glad you caught the PKP service!!!!! Once in VIE the departures board showed my long distance service was cancelled…. Went to the office to ask wth, what am I supposed to do (along with dozens of others) and the staff said, oh don’t worry it’s just an IT glitch, the train will arrive soon. Funny, what if i left the station like you did during the police procedure? 😅😅 they must work on their communication.
@growtone - Don't you know how democracy works..?? Just because the majority voted for stupid - Doesn't mean we all did.... In fact the very fact you posted that is stupid so kind of "right back at ya"... 🤣
The old photo of train station in vienna shows a building demolished with the 2nd world war or something. The last building there was ugly but historically precious, from the 50ties...
Actually to get from Warsaw city center to Chopin Airport you'd need only a 4.4 PLN (1 €) ticket valid for 75 minutes in zone 1. The journey takes about 30 minutes 😎 That 7 PLN ticket is needed if you want to travel to neighboring cities (zones 1+2).
been at Pointers a couple of times, they serve up some nice beers. funny seeing that in one of your videos. anyway, shame about the bombscare. hope you'll have less hassle next time you'll visit my hometown.
You're welcome. Regarding Belgrade-Budapest, current deadline is end of 2025. Part from Belgrade to border with Croatia is under designing. It will be completed by the of this year. Currently, funds are not yet obtained for works execution. This part will be also for a speed of up to 200 km/h. If money is obtained i n next year or so, works can be completed in 2028.
@@RailwaysExplained thanks! I'm thinking of a ride from Belgrade to Bar this summer: the scenery must be magnificent. It seems I have ro fly to Belgrade for that. Well, must be ok too )
Great first try at a trip report. I'd definitely like to see more. I was less interested in the things that happened to you (like going to the pub, bomb scare and being delayed) and would prefer to have more facts/information about the places, stations and railway systems, and perhaps what you liked/didn't like about them. I think a little bit of "story" about your trip is fine, but I'm not sure how well it works trying to mix two different types of video into one? It was like half vlog, half factual, perhaps two shorter videos might work better, or maybe what was strange was that you did your normal factual voiceover to a vlog, and maybe it would have felt more interesting if you had spoken on-camera or we heard the real sound and you saying things like "so, we've just been evacuated from the station, we don't know why, but we're going to have to find a hotel". That might feel a bit more "vlog", if you know what I mean? If I could suggest 2 channels I've been enjoying recently (for inspiration), Superalbs Travels and Linke Kever (from Netherlands). Also you probably know about Geoff Marshall and Jago Hazzard. Anyway, well done!

Uwielbiam pociągi od dziecka a najbardziej podobają mi się szwajcarskie. Fajną podróż odbyliście 👍
Greetings from Bulgaria! I hope that one day HSR will connect us with you too, but maybe that will be just a dream. Great content!
Maybe one day! 😉
Nationality reveal finally. Anyway this is the breakthrough video that levels up the channel.
Keep it up the great work!!

We hope so too!
Odlican video brate! Pozdrav iz Crne Gore
Hvala! Pozdrav za Crnu Goru 😉
Congratulations for the video! I hope you enjoyed both the trip and the conference! 👏😊
Thank you! Yes, we had a great time 🙂
Railjets also bring you from Austria to Brno and Praha in Czech Republic. The blue ones.

Hope you had a great time in Budapest! You should check out Metro line 3 after the reconstruction ends in March.
Great content btw!
Bravo kolege, vidi se da vas je SF odlično potkovao! Predobar kanal!!!
Хвала Немања! Велики поздрав од колега ☺️
One other nice thing about Wien Hauptbahnhof is that the tram line D has a stop underneath the trains on the East side of the station
Very interesting. Hope you enjoyed the conference
Very!

Yep, also todays main station replaced 2 terminus train stations with a through station, thus making it easier for train traffic
Thank you for that information. 🙂
Nice that you used rail transportation. Lot of railway authorites dosent use a train

18:10 - 200 IQ move - skip all station with "szcz" in name.
😂😂
Nice Video, which website do you use to show the different railway stations?
I had a feeling you were from Serbia. Свака част момци:)
Hey guys! Thanks for what you are doing! Are there any news or deadlines on the connection Budapest Belgrade? Or - Belgrade Zagreb?
You're welcome. Regarding Belgrade-Budapest, current deadline is end of 2025. Part from Belgrade to border with Croatia is under designing. It will be completed by the of this year.

We wish you luck with that trip. Rail line to Bar is in very bad condition and train service is not reliable. So, be ready for big delays 😅
You should do a video on aryo
You mean Iryo?
@@RailwaysExplained yes
Maybe some day
