- One of several times returning from Göschenen to Erstfeld on 17 September 2014 having banked a 1600 tonnes container train travelling in the other direction.
Made with cooperation of SBB Historic
Absolutely stunnig landscape Dixie! What a lucky guy you are, doing this fantastic journey in the cab!
Very great Sound from de Ae 6/6 thanks ! Super Video von einer der besten Loks die je gebaut wurden. Der Sound ist fantastisch 😊
Went over this route on holiday in 2003 - fantastic trip. The Swiss really know about trains. Recommend it to anyone, train enthusiast or not.
Indeed, one of the great European railway journeys
Qualité d'images exceptionnelles sur TH-cam mais on aurait souhaité voir l'Ae 6/6 soit au départ soit à l'arrivée . Cela dit 👍
Merci Christian. J'ai une photo de moi debout à côté de la locomotive mais je n'ai pas pensé à l'inclure dans la vidéo. Mes excuses.

Etre aux commandes d'un train de marchandises de 1600 tonnes fait rêver les modélistes comme moi aux commandes de mon Ae 610 à l'échelle 1/87 éme 😁.
Great view! Gorgeous scenery! Can't believe how closely spaced together all the opposing direction trains were! You never see anything like that here in the USA! Well done!
+Richard Gerlach ETCS is a pretty awesome signalling system. Not quite the cotten-insulated 1930's interlocks on the NYC subway :).
I'm not sure that this section has ETCS yet, I think its on the section north of Erstfeld as far as Brunnen. When this video was recorded this section was standard SBB signalling, although, of course, it is a significantly more complicated system than is found in countries such as Britain and the USA.
Wonderful 👍! Thanks for posting 👍!
What a beautiful recording with my favourite Ae 6/6 train.And last but not least the beautiful area whith mountains and tunnels.
What a lucky person you are.
It was indeed a great day. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome video! I felt like I rode there. Keep up with the good work! Greetings from Sibiu, Romania.
i created a channel just so i could comment. this is sensational! great video!
Simply the best Gotthard North Ramp cab ride video I´ve seen, thank you very much!
Glad you and Cornel liked it. It was an awesome day!

Thanks for letting us join the ride - though just by video but onboard anyway :-D
Great video, hope you create more like this.
lovely trip, very scenic and what an incline to descend
Lovely commutator whine on starting, and lovely country to drive through too. I do like the driver saying the "private" train company is "in the shit" ! Sounds like a typical railwayman conversation to me :-) Good stuff, and glad to see an Ae 6/6 is still on the road. Can you imagine that in the UK ? They'd say "WHAT? an OLD electric STILL running? Call Immingham or Caerwent scrapyard before anyone gets hurt by the evil old machine - they must all be erradicated at all costs - they're FAR too reliable.
It's great isn't it. If only GBRf or Colas or DRS would offer cab rides in their old electrics, I would be signing up straight away for a ride.
+Dixie Dean Used to have "people up front" quite a lot years ago when a motorman for the old Southern Region. Nowadays you'd get shot for even having the Guard come and natter to pass the time, thanks to PC elf'n'safety nazis. Many happy memories of the old 2HAPs on the Ore-Brightons, and the old 63 CIGs, the prototype CEPs, etc. All gone now and replaced by souless, computer controlled, plastic crap that doesn't even sound nice, let alone run as reliably as our oldies did. The last units hereabouts that sound nice with their DC motors are the 313s, 319s, and of course the Wessexes with their old EE546 motors from the REPs. We don't get 455's down here with their EE507 motors alas.
The Swiss engineers has created a stunning railway system with fantastic views of natures best.
Very nice ride. Thanks for sharing! 😉👍
Glad you enjoyed it.
So cool 🤩👍
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it
Wonderful!
Beautiful!
Great work nice video big like and greetings christian
Thanks, Christian, glad you enjoyed it 👍
One of the best cab ride videos ever! Thank you so much. Question: what is that clicking noise that can be heard from startup (departure)?
Regards, from South Africa.
I'm not sure, but I'll ask around some experts and see if they know.
Apparently its the compressor.
Ok, thank you!
Not really, the tickering is the tachometer, the clonk-sounds is the tap-changer delivering electricity to the engines. Thanks for the great video!
Well, thats interesting! Some old South African Trains also made that clicking noise, just more randomly during the trips, and it was the spirax-valves that (I believe) spitted short bursts of air and moisture out of the brake pipes and main reservoir.
Yet again, regards, from South Africa.
Oh, I saw the Churchill of Wassen.
bonsoir avoue mercie pour seu parcour manifique peysage rien adire sai la suise sai beau abiento
heureux que vous l'ayez apprécié Pascal
Why do the trains run on the left in Switzerland ? , that is my question .
Because the first railways in Switzerland were built by the British.
So that is the reason .............silly of me !!!! , I should have guessed it by myself . Thanks for your speedy response Dixie , it is much appreciated .
Why does the totle say the Fuhuere stands and farts?
I'm going to assume your enquiry is genuine - it means "journey with the driver" in German. Although, I must admit that if my wife or I have wind when driving on the continent, we always look sheepish at each other and say "Ausfahrt" which actually is what you see on the sign for an exit on the motorway/freeway.
не плохо,но нет финала++
Sorry, but it was in the days of small SD cards and my card ran out!
Diese Gleisarbeiter........man kann durch fahren wo man will, immer stehen sie neben den Gleisen und machen Pause... ;-)
