And five minutes later you walk out ... to Il Canale Grande! Venezia SL is the best-located train station in the world. Thank you for this unique view of a journey I've only seen from a passenger seat. Best wishes from Australia.
@brucewilliams8714 Thank you very much for your comment. I had an idea to film that journey for quite a while and, when it finally happened, I enjoyed filming it very much. Greetings to Australia!
Tre settimane fa sono andata anche io a Venezia con Freccia rossa e quando sono uscita dalla stazione l'emozione è stata troppo bella nel trovarmi di fronte : il Canale Grande. Bellissima e unica Venezia. Mie è rimasta nel cuore, ci tornerò molto presto!
A beautiful journey ❤ I would dearly love to take it from Zurich to Venice. Congratulations on yet another impressive video from this retired North American train driver 👏
OTTIMO VIDEO. Mi ricorda i viaggi da Torino a Udine di quando ero piccolo; allora c'era anche un treno notturno che partiva da Udine intorno alle 18,00 con delle carrozze dirette e dopo aver fatto manovra a Venezia, si arrivava a Torino la mattina successiva.
Thank you for refreshing my memories. This is a part of my journey from Venice to Nice in 2004. I stayed in Graz that time and had to travel to Nice for EGU General Assembly. Instead of taking a plane I decided to travel by train. It was great opportunity to visit Venice for the first time in my life. I took the train from Bruck an der Mur to Venice and then changed to the night train from Venice to Nice. Thus I spent about 6 hours in this fantastic city. The route to Nice was via Verona, Milano, San Remo, Ventimiglia... I hope to see the rest of my trip on your channel.
Ni kaj dodati, ker je bilo potovanje zanimivo, vse ostalo pa vrhunsko. Naj vam priznam, da se vam po vsakem izletu namerno ne oglasim, da vas razrešim truda ker se vsakemu in mnogim skupaj prijazno odzovete in oglasite. Sicer pa vaš trud redno spremljam. Hvala vam za vaš, tudi tehnični, vrhunski trud.👌👍😎
@antonius5143 Pozdravljeni. Zahvaljujem se vam za vaé prijazne besede. Brez skrbi, z velikim veseljem odgovarjam na komentarje, predvsem na take prijazne, kot so vaši.
I've only been to Venice once, but the scenery at the moment of crossing the sea was impressive and wonderful.🤩 Thank you very much for bringing back my memories🥰
One question to those who are familiar with the line: on the (sort of) HS line between Padova and Mestre the speed is limited to 200 km/h, but a few times I took Freccia or Italo the speedometer on the screen was showing something like 217 km/h (or maybe even around 220) for some time. Do the speed limits as indicated on the signaling boards not apply to the HS trains?
Between Padova and Mestre there are two parallel lines, a conventional line with some intermediate stops and a maximum speed of 180 km/h, and a high-speed line with no intermediate stops and a maximum speed of 220 km/h. Sometimes it may happen that a train is routed on the "wrong" line, e.g. if there is some traffic perturbation. One may have been routed first on the slow line and have noticed a given maximum speed, then on the fast line and have been surprised by the speed apparently above the limit (especially if in the second case they didn't see the speed limit boards). Whatever the case, on lines equipped with traditional signalling speed limit boards apply to all trains. However, in some curvy lines tilting trains may have a maximum speed limit higher than that indicated on speed limit boards, its value appearing only on the working timetable.
Excellente vidéo. J'ai souvent effectué ce trajet mais j'ignorais que le 200 était pratiqué sur cette ligne classique. J'attends avec impatience la suite (Vérone-Milan-Turin). Merci.
It has been my line ( Limited to Padua) for 6 years, when i made a bachelor into Padua University. Nice landscape close Lessinian, Berici and Euganean Hills. A few informations: Grisignano di Zocco is a underutilised station, because it was a amajor bifurcation station on Venice-Milan main railway ( the line aside the AV AC High speed line u are crossing) and the military railway Treviso-Ostiglia, now transformed in an environmental bike path, and closed in 1967. The stations from Padua to Venice Mestre in the old line right upon your wiew are in order PONTE DI BRENTA, Busa di Vigonza, Vigonza-Pianiga, Dolo and Mira - Mirano. When u are reaching Venezia Mestre station u will note the Maerne Overpass in green colour which overpass main line. This is part of the new line Venice Trento, which historic segment a.k.a Linea dei Bivi, that was part of Venice Belt Line, has beeen dismissed and they built this overpass. Now all the Venice Station are going on a refurbishment into platforms and ACEII signalising systems. Thank u for your efforts senhor!
ciao di nuovo, bellissimo viaggio è un paese meraviglioso con così tanto da vedere e così poco tempo per farlo, adoro i tuoi cabridi e spero un giorno di farne uno nella realtà. Un saluto e alla prossima!!! That's what about i'm intent to do. See you soon!
Bellissimo! Ogni volta che mi capitava di passare per Lonigo entravo in stazione e ci rimanevo una trentina di minuti per vedere il transito dei treni. Peccato per il rallentamento in prossimità della stazione. Qualità video ottima, ma, avrei preferito un po' di maggior rumore delle rotaie e degli scambi. Grazie.
Un altro bellissimo video siete i migliori....sarebbe bello ora riprendere la linea tirrenica in Calabria e la linea adriatica da Rimini verso sud 😊 complimenti
Then the Padova Mestre high-speed line is flanked by the traditional one and the maximum speed is 220 kmh. the peculiarity is that it is also traveled by regional, intercity and freight trains.
Grazie per questo video e per tutti le info. Bellissimo "cab ride" . Bella giornata di sole primaverile con qualche nuvola che quasi scompare su Venezia. Curioso, ma interessante, l'utilizzo di un IC della SBB,/CFF/FS per questo Verona/Venezia S.L.
con tutti i regionali che ci sono ancora: da Firenze a Roma, da Roma a Napoli, da Milano a Genova, ecc ecc. solo il regionale da milano a venezia dovevano togliere e limitare a Verona :(. ottimo video
Why is the footage blurry but not the titles? All the time I thought it was my equipment! Other rail channels are not this blurry! Are these people even watching the same video or reminiscing about the trip? See the poop? It is awesome for poop!
@rockingtr1 The file is very big due to the 4K 60frames per second resolution and sometimes even the small oscillations of the internet connection can interfere in the screening. When I am watching it , it is not blurry. I hope you can get to watch it in best quality.
Magnifico video come sempre. Però le solite mancanze: a Padova non "from Bassano del Grappa" ma "from Calalso-Castelfranco", e sempre a Padova manca "from Bologna. E in arrivo a Mestre manca "from Bassano del Grappa".
Hello...Il semblerait que le "titre" de la vidéo ne corresponde pas...😬 Verone ---->Venise et non Venise---->Trieste.... La vidéo est superbe !! Cette arrivée dans la lagune !! 👍 Comme d'habitude...Rien à redire sur la qualité et le reste...BRAVISSIMO !! 💪 @+👋
@@RailRelaxation great job, really! But explain me why the SBB is operating a train between Verona and Venice? How come? It's not a boarder crossing line! Verona - Venice is completely in Italy! So why the Swiss company operate this connection? Did the lease the train to Italy? Is there a Swiss or Italian driver on bord? A Swiss or Italian crew for the whole train? Do SBB so many Giruno trains, the Swiss company can lease one out?
@@RailRelaxation I'm pretty sure it will be against the law, the same way a company like flixbus isn't allowed to make routes inside Switzerland. But as you see, the government can do whatever they want. A transportation in a foreign country is pretty much forbidden. But nobody says something against it. Don't get me wrong,from Zurich to Verona won't be a problem but from there to Venice is surely against the law. But it's not your fault! Thanks again for your infos. Well done video!
Beh, se non fosse per il Ponte della Libertà il viaggio sarebbe stato anche abbastanza monotono, oltretutto la linea è oberata di cantieri e reti rosse nel tratto tra Verona e Vicenza. Video interessante, comunque. Il cielo con le nuvole bianche dona poesia alle inquadrature.
The left side of the railway is in: Sweden, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Italy, Slovenia, I think also in Portugal, and on two tracks in Austria. There is no need to say anything special about the UK and Ireland. A legacy from the early days of double track railway construction towards construction in England. Other European countries drive on the right side on their railways.
Because many countries hired British engineers to plan and build their first major railways (Britain being a few years ahead of the rest in developing railways and having a core group of experienced engineers), they naturally tended to follow their common practice and design for left-hand running. Once you've started that way, it makes sense to carry on throughout the country and thus several European countries run on the left (France, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Sweden etc) It's no great hassle to switch sides at a border as, in most cases, there will be a border station and, unlike road traffic, trains are under strict control. It wasn't until the turn of the 20th Century, with the rapid growth of motorised road transport, that there was a need to establish a rule for road traffic. Prior to that, especially in cities, it was a free for all! You can often see the chaos in old 19th Century photographs. Continental Europe went for right-hand rule whereas Britain and Ireland followed the local railway practice of left-hand. Being on islands, separated from the continental landmass, this was of no consequence. Interestingly, Japan did the same.
