Eine schöne Reise, wenn auch ganz ohne Berge, dafür aber mit Meer. Es ist immer wieder interessant, die Bahnen und Landschaften anderer Länder kennenzulernen; am besten geht das aus dem Führerstand eines fahrenden Zuges.
Bro!! I have been waiting for this complete route to appear on RU-vid for such a long time. If you could have gone all the way to Hamburg it would have been God Tier. Thanks so much for this. I lived in CPH for 10 years and always wanted to have this cab view all the way to the border and beyond. You're the best. Keep doing what you are doing.
Always one recalcitrant water droplet using the trains velocity to defy gravity and avoid plunging into the depths below. I really liked this video. Your attention to detail is terrific.
These ABB/Adtranz MF trains are really clever. I first travelled in them long time ago in 2001 in a DMU from Hamburg to Copenhagen via Puttgarden-Rodby ferry (an amazing trip that will be replaced with tunnel in future) and then over the (rather newly opened) Oresund bridge (this was before Malmo city tunnel so trains took a detour to then terminus of Malmo C). They can operate as single units, but can be connected on their "rubber noses" when the command cab is rotated on the side to allow the passage between the 3/4-car units. On the video I see various consists - multiple IC3 DMUs or IR4 EMUs, but also combinations of IC3/IR4 - probably with more electrification need for IC3 diesel units has declined so they can be bundled with IR4 EMUs to provide capacity.
It is bit strange, instead of going directly to Vestbanen, it goes south and then comes back to it. Maybe it has to stop at Syd station, but otherwise don't understand why.
Thank you for this video and for all infos and comments given. Interesting cab ride with final destination the Denmark/Deutschland border. I guess this train used has Hamburg Hbf as final destination. A large part of this ride was unknown.
Super ! Malgré un ciel gris et un peu de pluie, ça reste agréable. Le traffic ferroviaire est très élevé au Danemark, beaucoup de trains, visiblement, la population l'utilise massivement. J'avais fait ce constat lors de ma visite là bas il y a quelques années, même si on était restés dans la région de Copenhague/Elsener/Roskilde. Par contre, je dois dire que la qualité du matériel roulant ne m'a pas impressionnée. Le train que nous avions entre Roskilde et Copenhague était une rame automotrice diésel très bruyante avec une motorisation particulièrement désagréable qui donnait des accélération assez saccadées, un peu comme une véhicule routier avec des changements de rapport. En fait, le Danemark était assez en retard pour ce qui est de l'électrification en comparaison des autres pays Européens. Et pour ce qui est du design de certains trains, il est affreux, je pense justement à ceux que vous qualifiez de "rubber nose".
Thank you very much for your support, yes, I am planning to film some more lines in Norway, if you have some suggestion, I appreciate. You can visit rail relaxation.com and send me a email with your suggestion over there thank you very much.
Hi David, thank you very much for travelling through Denmark. 😊👍🏻 I still know the old route via the bird flight line. At the time, the route was driving an ICE TD. In the meantime, the IC3 should already have been replaced. The DSB now drives this route with a Vectron and former DB IC waggon. So that you no longer have to drive with diesel under the catenare. In addition, there is 20 km/h more top speed on top. Many greetings to Slovenia. 🙋🏼♂️
I travelled on Vogelfluglinie in 2001 but with an DSB IC3, from Hamburg to Kobenhavn. I still have photos of signage on M/F Prins Richard ferry showing the "Car Deck", "Train Deck". It was such an extraordinary experience when train loaded up on the ferry :)
@@ZvonimirZelenika Yes, that was something special. When you saw how much weight was on the ferry. The four-piece ICE (in my case) many trucks and even more cars. And somehow it had a decelerating effect. 45 minutes of sea air and duty-free shopping. :-)
Danemark! David Sousa strikes the Scandinavian landscape! Well done! Congratulations! It starts from the red brick Hoved Banegard, a bit like almost all DSB stations and we see the railway quadrupling up to Roskilde! All well done, all well detailed with the S-Tog lines up to Taastrup. Did you know that the history of the electrification of the Danish railways is quite recent? They started in 1979 and thought about the suburban lines of Copenhagen (for the Danes København, merchants' port) and then the flagship line to Padborg! Another spectacular route would be the one to Stockholm, passing through the ØresundBridge and then towards Sweden! Mark it down and if you do, it would be spectacular! The line after Kolding loses a bit of interest and goes into the rural landscape of Yutland, but the typical Danish trains are beautiful! I didn't know they were called Rubber Noses! The shape is unmistakable. I also saw material from AnsaldoBreda, which is the same company that built the Kobenhavn Metro, but I know that DSB had legal disputes with the Italian company due to malfunctions on the IC4s. Speaking of Denmark you mentioned the Roskilde festival and the Fehmarn Tunnel. They are talking about it in Germany! That tunnel would cut the route to Hamburg by almost 2 hours! Pharaonic project! If it goes on like this they will also build the railway tunnel between Poland and Sweden in a few years! The Danish railways are almost always diesel. Who knows why? The second city of the country is Aarhus where they recently built an eco-sustainable tram-metro line, the Aarhus Letbane. Well done David! I saw that they built the high-speed line but what trains do they use? The German ICEs? Good job! Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!
Danish trains were almost all diesel up until 2020 when the Vectron entered service. Basically the Danish politicians didn't want to pay for electrification, so after the Øresund bridge opened in 2000, they paid some "expert" to tell them that modern diesel technology (at the time) was just as environmentally friendly as electric trains. Thus they had an excuse for denying DSB any money for electrification and instead demanded they bought diesel trains. This resulted in the failed IC4 from AnsaldoBreda, which was 7 years delayed and only half the trains have ever entered service while the rest have either been scrapped or used as spare parts without ever driving under their own power. The Danish peoples has demanded electric trains ever since the IC4 was first presented to the public as a diesel (think it was 2005, can't recall) and the fact the trains was a colossal waste of money and have never worked properly has not eased the demand for electrification. Finally in 2015 it was decided to give the railroad a pittance to resume electrification, and thus the line from Kolding to Esbjerg was ready in 2017 and they've been slowly moving onward from there. They're currently working on the Fredericia - Aalborg line, the last primary route to get electrified - and Fredericia - Aarhus is mostly done, but they just started on Aarhus - Aalborg here in summer 2024. Since our new electric trains, meant to replace IC3 and IC4 are supposed to be delivered from 2027, they're in a bit of a hurry to get the electrification done, tested, and ready for operation
A very long journey that I watched in sections - and although the landscape there is very flat, I found it very varied 👍 As always, the image quality is TOP and you seem to have found the perfect solution for the microphones this time too: even at 180 km/h there was no wind noise or distortion, only when crossing rail joints and switches quickly there was sometimes a noticeable cracking noise. But that couldn't detract from the overall impression: great journey with wonderful images 👌🤗🙏
Very nice to see the railways in my neighbour country from the cab! Very different from Sweden, especially the signals which makes absolutely no sense to me as a Swedish driver! WHat is the reason for the odd and very slow routing out of Copenhagen, instead of just going directly onto the Vestbanen?
In all my years of taking the train over the border, I never noticed that the section from Padborg to Tinglev was single track. My whole life was a lie
lovely trip through our little country :) Of completely unnecessary FYI: Up until the reunification of Slesvig in 1920, Rødekro was the last stop (aka border station) between Denmark and Germany, but the lovely station that was built after the loss to Germany in 1864 was replaced by the current monstrosity in 1969 just a couple minor corrections: the IC3 trains are litra MF, the ER4/IR4 trains are litra ER, and they were built by Scandia with the electronics and drivetrain made by ABB, so not exactly ABB. Scandia was incidentally bought by Bombadier, which is why the EF trains (Øresunds trains) are made by Bombadier, but look very similar, albeit not electronically compatible. Also the S-trains are litra SA and SE - SA are 80 meter EMU, SE are 40 meter EMU, and they're often coupled together to make 1.5 length trains. And just while we're at the S-trains, on line F (the ring line) they only run SE units because some of the stations are too short to fit a 40 meter train and instead they run in 5 minutes intervals, but the SE that run on line F have different interior than the ones used on other lines. Basically on the other lines, only two of the half length wagons has proper seating while the other two had all the seats replaced by a bike rack, which is great when you want to bring your bike or love to stand, but not so great when you have to travel far in rush hour
As noticed the track between Tinglev and Padborg is singletrack and is at the moment on capacity. But also notice how wide the trackbed actually is? Thats because it was intended to be a doubletrack but politicians had to cut costs and therefor its been singletrack forever. But good news. It has been approved in our Parlament that once the Femern connection is done, the track will become a double track finally and increase capacity even more! Also fun trivia. Great belt bridge (Road) is the largest concrete suspension bridge in the world. (Pylons is made of concrete like the little belt bridge for the highway)
It is completely strange that this (though short) section is single track. This is ONLY (functional) railway connection between Scandinavia and rest of Europe, and it's - single track? Totally bizarre.
@@ZvonimirZelenika Very.. But tbh the last 50 Years its been in parlament often as a suggestion to put money into making it double track. Finally a YES was made.
@@ZvonimirZelenika Almost. Our highest Natural point in Denmark is Møllehøj (About 171 meters above sea level) so the pylons are above but not by much. Great belt bridge is 254m tall and Øresund bridge is only 203m tall :p
Nice to see this trip from a drivers PoV... im used to looking out of the sides Also one small correction.. 10:28 name of the station is not Slælør but Sjælør station
@skodass1 Thank you f or the correction. It is quite hard for me to see those errors in a foreign language. Thanks again. I will change it in the description of the video.
It did also seem a bit unusual. The international trains usually take the High speed line between Copenhagen and Ringsted as the old line via Roskilde is congested. So some sort of disruption might have been happening considering that diversion route.
Hey, thanks a lot for an another brilliant CabRide! Did you also Record "the German Part" (Padborg-) Flensburg - Hamburg? Or what are your next plans? Best regards
Can you record the railway line from Copenhagen to Malmö about Copenhagens airport and the Oresundbridge? Can you record the railway line from Malmö to Trelleborg, from Malmö to Stockholm, from Stockholm to Gothenburg, the railway from Oslo to Oslo Airport (Gardemoebanen) and from Oslo to Bergen? (Bergensbanen). And railway lines around Helsinki?
Das diese Dieseldinger doch recht schnell sind, obwohl die einen cw-Wert eines Nilpferdes haben. Vor 20 Jahren bin ich mit so einem, aber mit E-Antrieb nach Kopenhagen gefahren. Der fuhr denn erst ab Tinglev. Davon abgesehen ist das eine schöne Gegend zum Anschauen. Damals war auf der gesamten Strecke nach Kopenhagen so ein Nebel, das man nie etwas sehen konnte. Auch auf der Rückfahrt.
One persistent error that I spotted: the IR4 trains are mistakenly labelled as Class MF. However, their actual class designation is ER. MF is only used for the IC3 trains. However, the EF/IR4 and MF/IC3 are able to run coupled with each other, despite the former being an EMU and the latter being a DMU.
Went to Denmark donkeys years ago and was very impressed how clear of clutter their rail infrastructure was. A far cry from Network Rail. Rail Track or whatever they call themselves.
Neat video, but also very unusual that the train got diverted via the classic line after Copenhagen South station. There must have been some sort of disruption, the internationalt trains usually never take that route. I also cant tell if your train used IC3 DMU's or a Vectron locomotives as using IC3's would also be very unusual. Vectrons officially replaced them with leased german coaches a year ago.
@@RailRelaxation 😀 Yes I enjoyed... as I am a big Train Fan. Maybe you can have a look at my channels called: @Travel.Highlights and @Travel-by-Train... 🏖 Happy Summer
Fortsetter toget mot Hamburg, eller bytter man til et tysk togsett? Bytter man i så tilfelle til tysk fører? Må en dansk fører kunne snakke tysk, muligens aktuelt ved overlevering av togsett?
He is (only) recording (with train company and driver permission). What happens on borders can be pretty different - from same driver driving in both, same driver driving in both BUT accompanied by a local driver, changing of the driver on the same locomotive/tarin and at the end changing of both train/locomotive and driver. In this case, same driver and train can drive in both countries (from Kobehnavn to Hamburg), but this is up to relations and contracts between two neighbouring countries and train operators. There are requirements that You need to meet some language skill for other countries, some in EU even had the idea to formalize railway language like it is in Air traffic (where they use very formalized subset of English) but currently drivers need to understand language in the next country (but also signalling system and operational rules), I would say it would not be too much of an issue for Danish - to my experience, most of them knew rather well German or Swedish (and English).
This does not at all look like a recorded video from a real-life train-ride. It is more likely that is a recorded train-ride in a simulator game. BUT it LOOKS very realistic, were it not for the scarcity commuters on the stations during daytime.
In video = SJÆLØR STATION is spelled Slælør or something, and KØBEHNAVN SYD should be København Syd. + RØDVORE STATION should be Rødovre Station. " LITTLE BELT BRIDGE" in danish is "Lillebælts broen" Very nice video though.
