Very nice video. Sorry to point that the Rhine river is not the border in Basel. Basel Bad is still Basel, in Switzerland. The border is a few meters before the station of Weil am Rhein. The station Basel Bad itself is managed by the DB, but it's still on swiss territory.

@alphanet72 Год назад

You are correct. However, there is a D/CH border within Basel Badischer Bahnhof. Taking the SBB train from Basel Hbf to Base Bad, you will even see sometimes some customs personal. Within Basel Bad itself, the boundary is clearly marked but usually not manned. Schengen makes crossing border easily -- a few years ago, however, some Swiss issued visas were not Schengen visa and I have watched some scenes where people were caught illegally crossing, be it in Basel or in the Neuchâtel -- Paris TGV.

@pascaltholen2180 Год назад

@@alphanet72 The Basel Badischer Bahnhof is build on Swiss territory and only leased by the Deutsche Bahn. Customs are still located at this station but no marks anymore. The marks they had on the ground did not mark the boundary between German and Swiss part of the Station. They only marked the control and waiting points for border and custom control.

As a fact, is not when you cross the Rhine River on train at Basel when you enter Germany, rather after approx 1-2 km after the Basel Badischer Bahnhof is the border.

Nice video! I happened to be in the panorama coach on this trip as well, I was the guy in the blue shirt diagonally opposite you on the right hand side of the train after Basel :). I was on the train from Zürich all the way to Osnabrück to go home in the Netherlands, ending a trip that took me all the way to Sicily. I found the seats and the ride to be very comfortable, even on an 8 hour long ride like I did. The train was a bit late as we were stuck somewhere between Mannheim and Mainz as you showed, but my connecting train to the Netherlands was late as well in classic German fashion, so that was not an issue. I"m very glad I took this Eurocity instead of the fastest route from Milan to the Netherlands! It is actually possible to reserve a seat in the panorama coach, however that is only the case if you reserve a seat online at DB itself. There you can select a seat using a seat map. The panorama coach is coach number 263. I did it this way, also so I could get a reservation on the IC from Osnabrück to the Netherlands on the same itinerary. Your comment is true for other operators/booking services than DB, they do allocate you a random 1st class seat which might not be in the panorama coach.

I arrived in Basel after a journey from Calais in 1948, bound for Lugano. The contrast after war ravaged France was startling, Switzerland was a pleasant shock, clean electric trains, as much food as you wanted, no rationing…..and Lugano- just perfect. If you have watched the Burt Lancaster film The Train, a lot of the stations in France were those we passed through.

The trains were so punctual in those days that one could adjust times on their watches based on train arrival and departure times. German train journey is one of the best in the world, and seeing Rhine River brought back wonderful memories of 2 weeks of travel by train. Of course, the USA has a long way to go to make a train journey more enjoyable. Two weeks on Amtrak in 2015 was OK .

Last June I had taken a cruise on the Rhine (Basel to Amsterdam) and had wondered about the trains on the banks. Thank you for the lovely view from the train. I started at Zurich (flying in from the US) and loved your showing the station because I know the station well. The SBB people are extraordinary and one even held back the train departure as I (a seventy-ish out-of-shape person) was running to make it. As soon as he waved me into the first class (the nearest coach) we were off our way. We had first visited Switzerland in 1986 when we had taken various scenic journeys. This time I took the Bernina Express and visited the Swiss Museum of Transport at Lucerne. Same efficiency almost immediately after the COVID restrictions were lifted. The SBB mobile app is the best app I have ever used.

Damn! I figured out when you showed the map of your trip that you were going to go through Mannheim and Lampertheim. I lived in a satellite village of Lampertheim called Lampertheim-Rosengarten and went through Lampertheim alot as a kid, so I was really hoping to see Lampertheim as you passed. It's too bad that you didn't get footage of it, but it's still very nice to see Germany from your perspective. I watch your videos, vicariously, to remember Germany again and almost as motivation. Thank you so much for what you do, Simply Railway.

Great video as always Thibault, many thanks. We took this train from Koln to Basel🎉last September. Everything was fine until Karlsruhe, where the service was suddenly terminated due, apparently, to a casualty on the line ahead. We had to join an already crowded DB ICE as far as Offenburg then got turfed off that as well. I managed to sort out a route to Freiburg Im Breisgau, then to Basel Bad, on local DB trains, where we got the bus to Basel SBB and on to Zurich and Bellinzona (our destination). We were 5 hours late arriving. Thank God for the dining car on the Zurich to Bellinzona train where we got ourselves a hot meal.

It's amazing to see you ride this train and route! I bought this train as a set for my model railway including the panorama coach and really want to ride it in person. Unfortunately, riding a train as a wheelchair user is not that simple. During your tour through the train I only spotted seats for disabled persons/ a spot for wheelchairs in the second class. Maybe one day I will get the chance to ride this train to Hamburg with my girlfried to see the Miniatur Wunderland and meet with some friends there. Thank you for the video! :)

👏 Nice travel report ! About the Rhine river: Towards Germany it's a border water - roughly between the two Schaffhausen(Schaffhausen-Switzerland and Schaffhouse-près-Seltz) ... more precisely between Constance and Lauterbourg. Thanks to the Rhine the ancient Council town of Constance was spared in WWII - in contrast to Schaffhausen ... Also Kleinbasel was not spared by the Allied Forces. Kleinbasel hosts some of the tallest manmade structures of Switzerland - St-Chrischona(tallest tower) and Bau2(tallest building). Many places left of the Rhine waters have a strong roman/catholic tradition(Cologne, Mainz, Koblenz for example). The Panorama coach is - as mentioned in numerous comments - also available on the Transalpin train. Not less scenic is the classic Gotthard route - though just available during the summer season.

At SBB counter if you say panoramic seat we can put this in our system and you can reserve it specifically.

But if it is this consist we can add this wish and see if there is space left in our intern system. So feel free to book with us ;) but veery nice video man 😊

It's not so long ago that I took the EC Transalpin (Graz to Zürich) also in a panorama car. In this train the restaurant is operated by DoN (Austria) so a bit more affordable. And it's also a spectacular line, with the valleys of Enns and Salzach, the line along the lake of Zell am See, passing several skiing areas close by and then going up the Inn before going up the Arlberg and down on the other side, after a short unspectacular section through Liechtenstein rolling along two wonderful Swiss lakes (Walensee, Zürichsee) before reaching Zürich. I can definitely recommend this one as well. By the way on the site of the Austrian railways (ÖBB ticketing) you can reserve a seat specifically in the panorama car. Where did you book this one?

Such panorama cars should be even standard! It would help to draw more people from motorways to railways.

About the coaches in Koblenz: there is a railway museum in Koblenz (just north of the Mosel river crossing), probably that is related to those coaches

You mentioned in the video the coaches you saw just outside of Koblenz. The location you saw them is Koblenz Luetzel which is where the DB museum is located. The coaches in TEE livery are part of the collection their.

nice train and view

Nice video!!! I could take this train for travelling back home from Zwitserland to Amsterdam, after cycling the Eurovelo 15/Rhine cycle route. Largely the same route for train and bike. Or the Euronight, taking a sleeping compartment. What a choice to make🤔

When I went with the EC 8 to Düsseldorf last year in April, the train was going through the East Rhine Railway, instead of the west side. I do, however, miss the journey and I would really like to take it again.

Beautiful train. I have to admit that I don't have such a happy memory of it though. I took this train last June from Basel to Cologne. It was a boiling hot day and the air-conditioning in the Panorama car didn't work. Almost everyone (including me) sought shelter in the adjacent cars. On top of that, engineering works on the route meant that we were diverted off the most scenic part of the line in the Rhine valley as well as travelling very slowly at times. We arrived in Cologne about 2 hours late. So much for German punctuality. Glad you enjoyed it though.

Did I get this right ? The air condition in the Swiss car was broken and there were planned construction works at a German section of the railway tracks. And you blane Deutsche Bahn for it ?

@@keahnig164 Herr, schmeiß Hirn vom Himmel ! Natürlich braucht der Zug länger, wenn er eine Umleitung fährt. Die Bahn baut schon genug Mist. Aber da kann sie zur Ausnahme echt mal nix für.

18.07 The coaches are probably from the DB-Museum Koblenz. It´s a remote site of the main Museum in Nürnberg.

At 20:59 (at Cologne Hbf) there is a connection announced to Wuppertal, my hometown. Have you been there? Might be worth a video, riding the famous 'Schwebebahn' or suspention railway. It is in operation since 1902. It is quite a special kind of railway, the train is hanging below the rails at a hight of some meters over the Wupper river.... Regards from Germany.
