Inside a narrow-gauge railway maintained by enthusiasts 

I laughed a little bit when you showed the timetable with the branding as rapid transit system :D I would rather speak of a heritage railway. But huge respect to the people working on the railway keeping it running. Especially the old signal box was impressing to see, what a shame that it isnt completely functional anymore. Hopefully, we can all working together on constructive things like building a better european / Asian train network, than fighting pointless wars against each other.

Wonderful to see people who still care about preserving some of this history and to see the knowledge and experience being handed down.

Excellent work from the 'Enthusiasts' and I hope the project goes well for the Owner, Staff and the passengers. Great video Vaga, thanks for posting.

Wow, what an interesting video! But the brand of that Finnish engine is Valmet, not Valmit. It stands for Valtion metallitehtaat which means State's Metalfactories.

Wow mate... real surprise this video! Спасибо большое из нидерланд!

Of all the railway videos on youtube this has become one of my favorites, hope you are doing well.

Thank you for the video and the slice of Russian railway history. It's sad to see such an extensive network abandoned and left to decay. Hopefully one day the locos and wagons will be refurbished and put to use or at least maintained as a museum railway.

Love narrow gauge railways, so small but not toy-like, especially a dirty, working one like this. Great video!

Not everyday you find someone passionate about Soviet trains who is also willing to give you a tour. Great video. Keep it up Mr. Vaga Bond and goodbye from Minnesota USA.

From the days when stuff was ‘built to last’!

The end sequence made me feel very good and cozy, thank you for that!

Every old train is a treasure.👍

That shop restoring the old and engines cars was pretty impressive.

This will be one of my most favorite video of yours. The group of coworkers, family and friends giving respect to their Engineer passing was so very moving. And the ending of the men that operate these relics will be forever in my heart. Thank You so much for this video.

Cool to see an old train like this one still running.

Thanks for speaking Russian and subtitling it! 👍🏻🇷🇺

old system but it works...nice

Really incredible video. It's a real study of both man and machines. One of the things wrong about the way most people is taught history is that they make it about places and dates. But stories of people and the things they did, bring the story to life in people's imaginations.

Really cool short documentary. Interesting to see the work being undertaken and the quality of the restoration.

Facinating! And thanks to the owner for the tour.

Vaga Bond your trip was very interesting :). If the green and blue locomotives were not narrow gauge, I would buy them both and take them to Moscow. I would pick up my friends who would flag me down on the Moscow commuter railway, and we would be very trippy driving around the city waving to people.

Thanks again! What song is playing at the ending part of the video ?

What a nice little railway, and huge shoutout to you for your video's i really like it, and see a bit more of Russia. Greeting from the Netherlands

This is better rapid transit than in my city lol. I'd totally want to work for them for the day driving the trains! Seems fun!

Very nice video. There are true treasures deep inside Russia, especially the PD1 is an jewel.

very impressed how much you get around, this has become a favorite channel of mine. thank you

Amazing, thank you very much

Very interesting video! Thank you for your work

Great video and well done! 🙂

Foamers of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your trains!

Great video 👍🏻😍

Beautiful visuals.

Superb video!

your videos amaze me.... that fresh sound of jointed rail. speechless... thank you for sharing..

It always surprises me how much of public transit especially railway in post-soviet countries has been destroyed. In Lithuania there is Aukštaitija narrow gauge railway that now runs just Panevėžys-Anykščiai-Rubikiai But in 1952-1992 (what my grandmother remembers) the narrow gauge railway network was at its peak. The lines ran: Panevėžys-Anykščiai-Utena-Švenčionėliai Šiauliai-Pakruojis-Pasvalys-Biržai Švenčionėliai-Švenčionys-Lentupis(Лынтупы)-...-and then further into Belarus on today existing railway Not a narrow gauge but now is destroyed: Pabradė-Zalavas-Lentupis(Лынтупы)-...-and then further into Belarus on today existing railway Because my grandmother lived in Biržai she remembers the train arriving and leaving at an interval of 1 hour. She used to take that train to Šiauliai and then from Šiauliai to Klaipeda, to go to beach at summers.

Ngl the fireplace was sick. Gotta get one of them for the car.

Thanks 👍 Always good choice of music 👍

10:30 Im jealous of the brothers wake

Love this video

This line needs ALOT of restoration!...

Better than TV!!!!! Come on bring it on!!!!!

There are similar railways in he UK. Run by volunteers and enthusiasts. Funny how men are attracted to machinery the world over regardless of politics. Thanks

Very nice video! What is the music in the end?

An amazing insight to life out there. Worlds apart from Putin, I bet they would have some options of the onslaught of their fellow neighbours.

Totally worth it.

Did they use narrow gauge railways because they survive better on permafrost?

This is surreal

What music is playing in the end of the video?

Cool man

❤️🚂 красивое видео, однажды я собираюсь посетить этот уголок прекрасной России Которая так же прекрасна, как Западная Россия.

Rapid transit by boats have reached Alaska. Russians seeking refuge are taken to the State Capitol for processing purposes. I reside where the Alaska ferry docks in the lower 48 States. A community which has support services for homeless arrivals. We could talk about your expectations?

Love your video's but ive never seen something look so close to fallout 4

In my country this train connection would violate around a thousand safety regulations a few hundred environmental laws and at least twenty infrastructural and utilities regulations. Also that's one of the reasons why my country is rather boring.

You know waht man?? For this work You do and this advanture You took Ass withe You all the way, You must and You have to be very famos aranud the global. Ther is No many pepole can do this tink You do in your normal daily.. God luck my friend..

Is it just me, or are there like a lot of rivers in Russia?

You live history

On a real passenger train... wtf 😆

What a lovely and serene atmosphere in this video.... I have been looking forward for quite some years to visit Ukraïne, Russia, Kazachstan and Kyrgystan after my retirement. Pity, that thanks to Putin's war this is out of the question for the next few years....

12:25 "Valmet", not "Valmit" =)

Reminds me of Metro Exodus

🙋‍♀️👍

This railway will last untill the big bridge stays safe. Sad.

is smoking allowed ?

06:03 Russian third class train.

Bieda niesamowita

Mr bald and bankrupt would love this shit you should do a calab

If you want to see how crappy Russia is away from Moscow, this video is it.

GAYJuh is how you say “gauge” it’s a fuckt word

Thoughts on the war in Ukraine?

What's your view of Putin's war in the Ukraine?

How have you managed to avoid conscription? i don't want to see a video of you riding a train to the frontline.
