No music, no narration outside captions, and the raw noise of travel is why I love your videos. This is your sweet spot amongst all the various travel people on TH-cam.
One of the great channels on YT precisely BECAUSE of no narration, product placement and other distractions. Pure, high-production, detailed and documented train travel. Moreover, never too long.
Hello, as someone already mentioned the EU07 pulling your train was built in HCP in Poznań actually. There were two batches of EU07s. First one 001-240 was built in Pafawag Wrocław. Second one 300-up was built in Poznań. Please do not bother with comments saying your videos are boring. I bet there are plenty of people appreciating this way of documenting train travels. Keep up great work!
I hope you don't mind about the negative comments. This is the best way to show train travel. And there are no better videos on you tube than your episodes from the transsibirian. Best wishes- bzw. herzliche Grüße- from Germany.
I prefer your production method, it’s certainly not boring and I for one love the sounds, rail travel for some reason relaxes me and hearing the travel sounds enhances the video, keep up the great work and don’t change because of armchair critics who have probably never traveled beyond the off licence
Thanks for the clear descriptions! Thanks for the lack of Music! Thanks for not bothering us with a Running Commentry! Thanks for GREAT Videos! Keep up the good work and as you say, those who want Product Placements, should just go elsewhere, if that's what turns them on!
As a train enthusiast, I really like your long videos free of speech, music or whatever distractions. You are not only giving the true train experience but also provide interesting facts about the cars, locos, infrastructure as well as some history lessons. No need to change anything about the way you are making these videos. Of all the train travel related channels, yours is my favorite. Keep up the good work. Thumbs up!
I love the way you produce videos. I have taken many a journey with you to places that I will never see in person due to a medical issue. I appreciate your style of “narration”.
Very good, on my opinon your are the best reporter of train journeys ; with you we can apreciate landscapes instead of seat, lamps settings or toilets discovery !!! Moreover your goal is to feel the train journey atmophere of train journey with a little bit technical details. Thank you very much and let us continue to dream in this world witch show us no good things. Hope you will continue.
Great video 😊 As you mentioned in the video, the fact, that there is no voiceover narration, no music (despite intro for the movies) made your movies unique, and for those who are watching you since for example TransSiberia series would knew that fact and that should not be a problem, especially when you provide great amount of historical information about lines related to the particular movie. I have only two things to point First is the EP07-338. The locomotive is the 303E type which means that it was not produced by the PaFaWag, but by HCP Poznań. "338" was built in 1984 in Poznań as EU07-338 (factory number 303E-238/1984) and in 1997 upgraded to EP07-338. In a simple way - you can recognize the vehicles produced in HCP by the grooved side parts of the body (dark green). Vehicles produced by PaFaWag are the type 4E and they do not have those grooves, and they are not capable with automatic couplers (303E is capable). Second is the branding of the TRAXX locomotives. Since 2021 each newly built engine is produced as Alstom TRAXX (only TRAXX AC3/DC3/MS3), but until that year, all of TRAXX locomotives were produced by Bombardier Transportation (both PaFaWag Wrocław and Kassel). Even that nowdays Alstom is manufacturing TRAXX locomotives, for those vehicles which were manufactured before 2021 the manufacturer is Bombardier Transportation, not Alstom 😉 The Lotos Kolej TRAXX is the F140DE type so that is manufactured in 2011 by BT.
Excellent video!! I'm impressed about your knowledge of Polish rolling stock. There's no reason to censor kibel nickname. It's not a curse by any means - in fact, it's actually a cult nickname! I love your style, don't change anything - it's great to watch your videos :)
We are really enjoying your series on Vilnius to Berlin and are looking forward to part 3. Hopefully it will have a restaurant car so you can have a WARS schnitzel on board! Your video style is wonderful - it really gives an impression of the feeling of riding the train and your commentary provides interesting geographical, technical and historical details. Love your work.
Dear Doc7Austin, As to your personal comments, I never miss a train ride by you, am a dedicated train traveller, did more than 100,000 km in Europe during this century. Wish you good luck, Onno from Amsterdam
Moved to Poland 6 years ago and now starting to explore the country by rail rather than by car. Your videos are excellent as well as very informative. They have also helped me understand how the rail system works here and the ticketing system/train types. I'm classed here as a senior, so that helps too with costs and booking! Thank you.
Great vlog as always. The keyboard warriors would probably never travel more than 5km from their homes, so their comments hold no interest. I absolutely love the way you put your videos together, using local languages in your text is great. This journey in particular, is one that i have done several times, mainly as a segment of a longer journey from the UK to visit family in Latvia, as well as other general holiday trips. Keep up the great work, maybe one day we can travel into Belarus once again.
From 30:47 -30:55 (more or less) I could see Sylwia the Polish youtuber on the platform near "Hańcza" while being taken picture of. She has her own channel Sylwia K_Podróże
Excellent video! I'm traveling on this railway line since the year 1999. The last was one week ago from Vilnius to Warsaw Wschodnia. There I changed for the night train westbound. In old times there were 3 train-couples a day, and a night train from Warsaw to Vilnius.
Ignore the snarky comments. I totally agree that voice and personality cues should be omitted. I like the train and RR details so the longer the vid the better. Keep up this good work and thank you.
Your “long form” style of editing and presenting train journey videos where the sounds and images tell the story is perfect. There are some well-produced product review channels that do short videos and comment on features onboard the trains (especially the toilets 🙄) but they are all copies of one another and quickly get boring. Your style of video captures the feelings and sensations of the journey and is closest to what travelling by train is actually like. It’s also nice that you spend time explaining some of the interesting history of the area the train is travelling through. Thank you for sharing your travels with us… those people with the snarky comments are entitled to their opinion but if they just relaxed a bit they might feel better and learn how to appreciate and enjoy a slower pace of presentation!
I absolutely ❤ your videos - reading while watching. I also love the the information you provide, travel maps, history and geography and the geopolitical stories you embed in your clips. Absolutely marvelous. Please carry on, don’t stop! ❤
The M62M-001 locomotive seen at 10:17 is an interesting modernisation of the M62 locomotive. This particular locomotive got its original 14D40 engine replaced by 645E3B engine made in USA which originally powered F40PH locomotive but was taken away, regenerated and sold to Poland. The modernisation was done by Rail Polska company in their own shed and for years was used by them. It switched ownership from Rail Polska to LTG Cargo very recently, in October 2022.
17:29 "This line is part of Rail Baltica project" - it is not true. This section between Suwalki and Bialystok which you were driving will be not the part. Because of the strategic reasons and short distance between the line and Belarus border. The Rail Bailtaca will have different way. From Suwalki through Olecko and Elk to Bialystok. There is also an old railway actually there (Suwalki - Elk) which will be renewd. Additional reason is to be more closelu to military poligons next to Elk in Poland. You can easy find the maps of Rail Bailtica.
I watch your videos because I like them exactly the way they are. I did have a bit of a problem reading the white lettering on your maps, but no worries. Thanks!
24:43 One note: this exact loco was made in HCP works in Poznań. First type (4E) of this series was made by Pafawag Wrocław indeed, but production of the second, modified type (303E) was undertaken by HCP.
Thank you for the always enjoyable train videos. I very much like the absence of music and spoken narration, which I think would distract from my enjoyment of the train travel atmosphere. The subtitles provide plenty of details concerning the routes, stations, and equipment shown.
Thank you again for the nice video! A few remarks: - People who think your videos are boring have the option to watch something else :) - Are there really people asking you not to spell out train names? The word is not that ugly... - Even when the distance to the Belarussian border is "as much as" 10 km, I'd be careful with you mobile phone. I had a similar situation in Croatia last summer where my phone switched briefly to a Bosnian-Hercegovinian network, giving me a nice juicy phone bill. Keep up the good work!
Another excellent video, you don't need to defend the way you do things. The trains and the scenery are all we need to enjoy your trips. Let others go elsewhere.
Maby thanx for another great railway video with substantial additional (historic) information. You know how to please railwaygeeks despite all those nonsense criticals. Continue this unique way of producing. Eager to see part 3👋👋👆👆
31:13 - She's checking in the mirror if she looks good after realizing she's being filmed :D If the train wasn't already moving then I'd say that she checked if all passenges got in and out safely, but in this case I see no other explanation
That was my favorite loco. I started to drive it in 1977 year and in my opinion, that was very succesfull license bought by PKP in Great Britain. Thanks for your films. You gave me inspiration for next travel. @@doc7austin
I would like to add some interesting details about the route: 1. the line between Jastrzębna and Sokółka opened in 1963 to bypass part of the Zanemen Line to Grodno which after 1945 remained in the Soviet Union (now Bielarus) 2. the future Rail Baltica will not use the Suwałki-Augustów-Sokółka-Białystok line but a more western one: Suwałki-EŁK-Białystok.
Very interesting information! From Białystok to Ełk is already equipped with electrification. But in spite that Lithuania has built new tracks on the Rail Baltica, the Polish railways yet haven't done anything on the tracks in the Suwałki area.
Nice video connecting suwalki gap to warsaw central. The way video is made as if the reconstruction of the passage of world War 2. Connecting Soviet Europe and mainland Europa is exciting. Looks like we are navigating a video game. Great vdo
Just pure train vlogging... No senseless music, showing only food all the time etc etc... our Indian train volggers should learn how to make Excellent train vlogs like this
Superb video! Glad you made it. Just small remark 🙂 Poland is in Central Europe, if we consider geographic split of Europe. Also geometric middle point of Europe is located in Poland, therefore PL cannot be in Eastern Europe 🤣 Also, from historical and language and more obvious reasons (even railway gauge), countries located East of PL are considered as the Eastern Europe.
i agree with you geographically speaking. however if we talk historically, like 40 years ago, Poland definitively was in the "EAST" personally i would consider poland in central europe also.
@@ursodermatt8809 please don't go back... Future is bright, especially when most of Europe rejoined the Western world after being betrayed after WWII by them ... Anyway, if you prefer use term the 'EAST', then we also need to say Germany (east part of course, DDR ) is east 😱😎
@@TheMappero history is always "back" and yes, east germany was also "east". and i did not "prefer". besides what is east and west depends where you are situated. it was just an explanation. you ex soviet territories are still touchy about the past. you yourself contradict yourself when going back to the past. it is your history and all the slogans and getting angry will not change it. just live with it. i live with the past of my own country and do not deny the past. it is what it is.
Interesting trip. I like your videos only thing I would change is to use 2 lines for the text. The travel time is quite long though. The EN57 train sets are nicknamed “Kibel” which means toilet (it used to smell in them). EN57AL is also called Alicja (Alice) I don’t like some of the seats of PKPIC, when modernised, they often become less comfortable, thanks FPS.
Your "production method" is perfect. Don't change it! Ignore the "snarky comments." Super job! One question, though, that I have wanted to ask: where are you from? Clearly former USSR, but "otkuda?"
@@doc7austin Honestly? I'm pretty sure I saw one of your documents - that one was about a flight - with Chinese passport on table. Anyway, your method of making documents is classic for East Asians (especially Japanese), without excessive narration, containing only some objective informations. Enjoyable and much more valuable than almost all travel-related content on TH-cam (what are usually extremely subjective and unprofessional videoblogs).
The PKP EP07 are updates of EU07 locos built from the 1960's to a design licensed from English Electric, hence the similarity to the UK Class 83 locos, the first locos were called EU06 in Poland but made at EE plant Vulcan Foundry in UK - PKP painted an EU07 in the bright blue 1960's Class 83 livery for a while.
@doc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral you're wrong about rail baltica. It'll go through Olecko and Ełk to Białystok via 39 and 38 line, not 40 line IC Hańcza goes. I'm building it.:)
1) I like the way you make your videos. Lot's of info and no irritating face in sight 2) the views would be nicer in spring/summer as riding in the dark is never a pleasant thing and 3) do not put white text over maps. Unreadable!
The line is in poor condition as renovation is not profitable this line will soon be replaced by Rail Baltica with a maximum speed of 250 km/h, works are already well advanced. After the construction of Rail Baltica is completed, it will be possible to travel from Vilnius to Warsaw in 3 h 10 min
@@times4937 Electric trains are the future, electricity can be obtained from various sources such as sun, wind, water, etc. Oil will eventually run out. It is a very smart and future-proof investment.
The origins of this type of loco date back to 1962 when Polish State Railways ordered a batch of EU06 electric locos from English Electric. The design of EU06 was based on British Rail Class 83. A bit different series of locos was later built in Poland under license. This in turn led to subsequent development of other types. Many of them remain in service to this day.
Poland and Baltics are not in Eastern Europe, but in Central Europe. Look at the map of Europe, check where the borders are, and you will see how big distance is between Vinius and Ural.
I get the fact that you want to present the authentic train experience and the journey as if the watcher was there and I salute that initiative. However, as a train enthusiast myself, I could not give a lesser fuck about when a line was constructed, who constructed, where it goes and all that. I can imagine the general public looking to see how the service is like will be even more so distant to this kind of things.
You couldn't; that is for you. Don't speak for others who want and like to know much more than was given. The general public is not on this train to work and can get the daily time table update elsewhere. This is a novelty and any info is interesting.
@@ursodermatt8809 I know these parts of Europe well, as I do with the western ones, I am not a train addict for nothing. And I still don't give an absolute fuck about who built what and when. If it's not the very first track of that country, it's a redundant info for me
Great video. No resturant car is definitely a minus for that train. Is there anythin at Mockava? Or is it just a platform for swapping bwteeen russina and standard gauges? (PS If you are going to put the camera out the window you need to get a decent windsock on the mic.)
@@snowflake7894 I agree there's no need for it to go through to Lithuania, but it could back on with the extra carriages at Bydgoszcz and work to Kraków and back.
@@fussyboy2000 Mockava is a very small station with only one platform for swapping train. But it's an interesting station too. 2 gauges, 1435 mm and 1524 (new 1520) mm, 4 rails and 2 tracks/gauges, which are tangled together on 1 embankment to Šeštokai. From there to Kaunas the 2 gauges are mantled on 2 embankments.
No music, no narration, no face cam- just pure sights and sounds of train-travelling. Thats what i love about your videos. 🥰
I agree.
Agree. That is what I want in these videos!
It's absolutely fantastic. I completely agree with you.
Mind you I did like the haunting introduction music on your Trans Siberia journey. Other than that ,I do agree with you, and your followers.
No music, no narration outside captions, and the raw noise of travel is why I love your videos. This is your sweet spot amongst all the various travel people on TH-cam.
You really do not need to excuse yourself for your filming style ... You are by far the best in transmitting the real railway atmosphere

Love your vlogging and the sub-titles are spot on...keep up the great work!
Wow! A girl drives the loco (31.16).
Probably it's that one: th-cam.com/video/Ab2Eh1fVwRw/w-d-xo.html
Superb video! Glad you made it. Just small remark 🙂
Poland is in Central Europe, if we consider geographic split of Europe. Also geometric middle point of Europe is located in Poland, therefore PL cannot be in Eastern Europe 🤣
Also, from historical and language and more obvious reasons (even railway gauge), countries located East of PL are considered as the Eastern Europe.
i agree with you geographically speaking. however if we talk historically, like 40 years ago, Poland definitively was in the "EAST"
personally i would consider poland in central europe also.
@@ursodermatt8809 please don't go back... Future is bright, especially when most of Europe rejoined the Western world after being betrayed after WWII by them ... Anyway, if you prefer use term the 'EAST', then we also need to say Germany (east part of course, DDR ) is east 😱😎
@@TheMappero
history is always "back"
and yes, east germany was also "east".
and i did not "prefer".
besides what is east and west depends where you are situated.
it was just an explanation. you ex soviet territories are still touchy about the past. you yourself contradict yourself when going back to the past.
it is your history and all the slogans and getting angry will not change it. just live with it. i live with the past of my own country and do not deny the past. it is what it is.
@oc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral hast du das endlich kappiert, Deutscher ignorant?
@@ursodermatt8809
Funny enough, because geografically speaking entire Finland and even part of Greece is more East then Poland 😉
Interesting trip. I like your videos only thing I would change is to use 2 lines for the text. The travel time is quite long though. The EN57 train sets are nicknamed “Kibel” which means toilet (it used to smell in them). EN57AL is also called Alicja (Alice)
I don’t like some of the seats of PKPIC, when modernised, they often become less comfortable, thanks FPS.
Your "production method" is perfect. Don't change it! Ignore the "snarky comments." Super job! One question, though, that I have wanted to ask: where are you from? Clearly former USSR, but "otkuda?"
me -> from Ukrainian SSR
@@doc7austin Honestly? I'm pretty sure I saw one of your documents - that one was about a flight - with Chinese passport on table. Anyway, your method of making documents is classic for East Asians (especially Japanese), without excessive narration, containing only some objective informations. Enjoyable and much more valuable than almost all travel-related content on TH-cam (what are usually extremely subjective and unprofessional videoblogs).

Great footage 👍
Poland is located in Central Europe, not Eastern Europe. Great video btw.
Quite right but don't expect too much from West Europeans: being aware that not only Western Europe exists is the maximum they can do.
The PKP EP07 are updates of EU07 locos built from the 1960's to a design licensed from English Electric, hence the similarity to the UK Class 83 locos, the first locos were called EU06 in Poland but made at EE plant Vulcan Foundry in UK - PKP painted an EU07 in the bright blue 1960's Class 83 livery for a while.
@doc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral you're wrong about rail baltica. It'll go through Olecko and Ełk to Białystok via 39 and 38 line, not 40 line IC Hańcza goes. I'm building it.:)
Excellent vlog.
1) I like the way you make your videos. Lot's of info and no irritating face in sight 2) the views would be nicer in spring/summer as riding in the dark is never a pleasant thing and 3) do not put white text over maps. Unreadable!
Fun fact: Kýbel in Slovak language means bucket.
very similar to german "kübel". there might be a historical connection.
Yes, it originates from the German word you mentioned.
@@SlovakianLynx
interesting. in swiss german it is pronounced chöbu though.
Good one with no music!
The line is in poor condition as renovation is not profitable this line will soon be replaced by Rail Baltica with a maximum speed of 250 km/h, works are already well advanced.
After the construction of Rail Baltica is completed, it will be possible to travel from Vilnius to Warsaw in 3 h 10 min
After completing the ridiculously expensive investment, the operator will be carrying air at a speed of 250 km per hour
@@times4937 Electric trains are the future, electricity can be obtained from various sources such as sun, wind, water, etc. Oil will eventually run out. It is a very smart and future-proof investment.
Personally I prefer a bit slower, to enjoy some views outside...
BTW, the green electric loco reminded me of a Volkswagen mini bus for some reason.
The origins of this type of loco date back to 1962 when Polish State Railways ordered a batch of EU06 electric locos from English Electric. The design of EU06 was based on British Rail Class 83. A bit different series of locos was later built in Poland under license. This in turn led to subsequent development of other types. Many of them remain in service to this day.
@@adamzieba8364
That's really informative, thanks.
Poland and Baltics are not in Eastern Europe, but in Central Europe.
Look at the map of Europe, check where the borders are, and you will see how big distance is between Vinius and Ural.
That border crossing, Litwa / Polska is Center of Europe. [Very close].
Hey! Kibel or TurboKibel is nothing wrong! It is common in rail-lovers society in Poland...
Are the blinding bright lights inside train ever dimmed?
I get the fact that you want to present the authentic train experience and the journey as if the watcher was there and I salute that initiative. However, as a train enthusiast myself, I could not give a lesser fuck about when a line was constructed, who constructed, where it goes and all that. I can imagine the general public looking to see how the service is like will be even more so distant to this kind of things.
You couldn't; that is for you. Don't speak for others who want and like to know much more than was given.
The general public is not on this train to work and can get the daily time table update elsewhere. This is a novelty and any info is interesting.
i suppose if you do not know about those particular geographies he is talking about, it might be difficult to follow.
@@ursodermatt8809 I know these parts of Europe well, as I do with the western ones, I am not a train addict for nothing. And I still don't give an absolute fuck about who built what and when. If it's not the very first track of that country, it's a redundant info for me
31:10 what a sound!!!
Hi, I'm wondering if you have any specific website that you get all the information for videos from or do you have multiple resources
wikipedia and openrailwaymap are my main sources
@@doc7austin Thank you so much for sharing, greetings from one of the towns you passed through ;)
Great video. No resturant car is definitely a minus for that train. Is there anythin at Mockava? Or is it just a platform for swapping bwteeen russina and standard gauges? (PS If you are going to put the camera out the window you need to get a decent windsock on the mic.)
Resturant car for 10-20 passengers?
@@snowflake7894 It could come on at the reversal rather than going over the border to Mockava.
@@snowflake7894 I agree there's no need for it to go through to Lithuania, but it could back on with the extra carriages at Bydgoszcz and work to Kraków and back.
@@fussyboy2000
Mockava is a very small station with only one platform for swapping train. But it's an interesting station too. 2 gauges, 1435 mm and 1524 (new 1520) mm, 4 rails and 2 tracks/gauges, which are tangled together on 1 embankment to Šeštokai. From there to Kaunas the 2 gauges are mantled on 2 embankments.
Is St. Petersburg-Warsaw mainline the same gauge over entire route?
No.
😊very good
