Many thanks for your reply Tim! I hope you can cope with your two jobs! I’m retired now and can be lazy...but your viewers really appreciate your professional work. I look forward to the second part and learning more about the High Tatra mountains. Best wishes, Rob.
@@johnmchardy1229 Hi John, the News here in the UK is pretty depressing, I've given up watching it, I'd rather watch You Tube or an old episode of only fools and horses. These rail tours are fun, I'm looking to do Austria in the Autumn of this year. Slovakia was a real treat, great railways, lovely people and a decent pint of beer. Looking forward to hearing about your K Class experience. Cheers. Tim.
Very nice train ride Tim. Want to know more about Tatra mountains during second part of the video. When are you uploading the second half of the video?
If there was a Middle Earth Railway it would look like this, marvellous , how often do trains run over that section ??? Cheers look forward to part 2....
Hi Leslie, the railway follows an attractive route, there is a train through Middle Earth, New Zealand's Northern Explorer - th-cam.com/video/7MnicNmbJDg/w-d-xo.html . The second part of Driver's Eye View - Plaveč to Poprad is available now - th-cam.com/video/0LH8tdsgYUY/w-d-xo.html
Hello Tim! I really enjoyed this one...well up to your high standards as usual. However, I can’t find part 2. Have you uploaded it yet? I also found it interesting to get a rare glimpse of one of the 3kV d.c. substations...oddly sited right at the end of the system! Do they use solid state rectifiers or the good old (very old!) mercury arc rectifiers? Finally, another question...the beautiful mountains that can be seen in the distance...are they part of the Tatra range? Many thanks, keep up your excellent work
Hi Rob, I'm pleased you enjoyed it, I haven't uploaded Part 2, work commitments are keeping me away for a few days, hopefully it will be up in 5 or 6 days.Everything electrical looked old, but wouldn't like to guess at which system was being used. The mountains are the High Tatras, we will be taking a closer look at them in the next few weeks.
Yep! Nice one! Notice you don't seem to be doing those sped-up videos much these days, Tim. Worried about sending viewers crashing into their computer monitors with the sudden stops? LOL
I'm a little confused. Does "Poprad" mean "River" as indicated by "Poprad (river)" or is "Poprad" the name of the river, in which case you should have made the text "Poprad river"?
Hi, I wondered the same when I checked the name on Google Earth, the river is simply shown as Poprad as is the town. I indicated it in brackets as a river because it is not referred to as the "River Poprad", although it might have been easier just to call it the river Poprad, because Poprad does not mean river.
@@Timsvideochannel1 Thanks for the reply. It seems that the river and the town are both named Poprad, which makes sense. I guess that to someone from the region, the context would make it obvious whether the river or the town was being referred to. In English, it's common to use the name of an object with the object type without brackets eg "Poprad river" or "river Poprad" whenever it might not be clear that the name is referring to a particular object type.

Hello Tim, very nice video, - this beautiful landscape and railway near the river. Many thanks again! P.S. And now I has two days huge walking after two weeks of total hells bad weather... :-) Have a nice day
Hi Tim, as small detail 0:26+: the Slovak railway womans are smart inventors for this good secondary using a plastmass bottles -- it's very well case, hehehe! :-) Alas, today our weather was fall again... :-( Good luck and have you a nice day! Chuck
Hi, those bottles made me smile, I'm going to have some in my garden next year :-) Sorry the weather is not so good, its cold and overcast here, but I don't really notice it when I'm in my workshop.
Hi! Sure, the garden buttles is very good idea, and for lazy gardeners is twice: because may uses auto watering by a tube through the neck, uses a water dispenser, hehehe. Bad weather is already totally of the world, devil's shit! For me any work not save against it now... Take care. Chuck
You could make one of those bottle planters for indoors. Now the weather is not so good here, but I must not complain, it was a good summer this year. Keep warm and look after yourself. Tim.
Ahoj, bol som problémy s mikrofónom, tak som použil zvuk z inej časti videa. Dúfal som, že nikto by oznámenie. Google Translate - Hi, I was having trouble with the microphone, so I used sound from another part of the video. I had hoped nobody would notice.
'You can't stop here!' would do as a translation. I think that person's part of the conversation goes more like, 'Get along with you now, don't stop here! Don't you realise mice cross here once in a blue moon? Sometimes even passengers! … Of course, just don't do it again, now move along!' Haha, remind me not to get a job there!
I bet she would be proud. The Slovaks certainly are proud of their Bardotka. I would like to see Uncle Tim out there polishing up her . . . appendages. What we really need to see is Uncle Tim standing alongside the track filming her charging up the mountain pass in notch 8, belching big clouds of diesel smoke, chasing a gazelle, rather than purring along in notch 1 like a lap cat toying with a mouse.
Slovaks know a good thing when they see one. I wanted to see more of the train from the line-side, in a couple of weeks time I'll be posting a video that does just that. PS I might not have polished her appendages, but I did clean her windshield once.
Beautiful journey.
I'm pleased you enjoyed it.
@@Timsvideochannel1 i have enjoyed almost all your clips

Hi tim one word ""FANTASTIC"" thanks mate.
Cheers Bob, it's nice to know you enjoyed it.
Love the arm wavers in orange a real treat. Cheers Mate. John
Cheer John, is that the arm wavers near the end of the video?

Veľmi prekrasne natočené video 😉😉😉😉.
Pochvala a palec hore 😉😉😉😉. Perfektné super 😁😁😁😁😁.
Bude aj pokračovanie ? 😉😉😉😉 .
Ďakujem vám, som rád, že sa vám páčil video.
Excellent !!! How many parts ? Two ? Thanks. Dana.
Hi Dana, it will be just two parts.
36:46 Ooooooohhhhh more ghosts! Fade transition strikes again! LOL
Don't you wish you could do that in real life, there wouldn't be many politicians left in the world.
LOL yeah!!!! Too delicious a thought! No more Donald Trump! How good's that?
@@neilforbes416 Interesting thought, newspapers and TV would loose one of their most talked about subjects.
Yeah, they'd lose their "cash cow" because they make their money off the back of stories about his(Trump's) imbecilic antics..
He even provides you with material for appalling jokes, he can't be all bad.
preco ta zmena zvuku pred busovami na 30ke ?

Část 2 bude k dispozici příští týden.

0:16 Brigadier Bardotka leads from the front.
I wonder what the real Brigitte Anne-Marie Bardot would make of her profile being compared to a diesel locomotive.
I bet she would be proud. The Slovaks certainly are proud of their Bardotka. I would like to see Uncle Tim out there polishing up her . . . appendages.
What we really need to see is Uncle Tim standing alongside the track filming her charging up the mountain pass in notch 8, belching big clouds of diesel smoke, chasing a gazelle, rather than purring along in notch 1 like a lap cat toying with a mouse.
