I always enjoy nice comments. Thanks.

Thanks!

Ok. Eerst nog even een vertragingsfilm, de week daarna de terugreis vanaf Venlo.

Goed gezien :-)

Leuk om te horen! Later dit jaar, alles over het grootste kunstmatige eiland ter wereld: de Flevopolder :-)

Zo is het maar net!

Ok :-)

Upgrading picture quality and start all over..

@@CabviewHolland How many times already? Next a drone to fly 20 meters above the train? {^_-}

@@Wizardess Haha! No.. back to 60fps and possibly HDR..

Yes, personnel guard barriers. I believe they hook underneath the rail.

@@CabviewHolland Thanks for the reply and of course for all these wonderful journeys throughout your outstandingly beautiful country.

@@marting4042 :-)

Komt eraan. Maar eerst even een vertragingsfilmpje aankomende zaterdag.

Kan ik je dan via internet besturen?

Wat?

Volgens mij staat er niet 1884..

Good question

@@CabviewHolland It is simple, Prorail believes that the best track switch is no track switch sat all so many switches are being removed like at Naarden=Bussum,Hoogeveen,Oisterwijk and so on.

7:33 total..

Prorail tried to stabilize all but it seems it was still not enough. More info: www.prorail.nl/nieuws/baanstabilisatie-tussen-culemborg-en-geldermalsen

Arf?

Klopt

Het is een heel stuk verbeterd maar blijkbaar toch weer gaan verzakken.

Ik zie niets bijzonders aan die seinen daar?

Richting

@@CabviewHolland Thanks now I know. Do ypu use terms like Fast Lines, slow lines etc. Oh and what are those signals you see at the side of the line with 2 light on them (Horizontal not vertical)

@@schwarzalben88 Fast lanes? On the road or on the railways? The two white lamps flash if a train is coming over that track, to warn railway workers.

@@CabviewHolland Used ro be called TOWS here ( Train Online Warning System) It was usually a siren mounted at track level

@@schwarzalben88 At 39:51 you can see a different version for this purpose: yellow sirens on the left.

It's true. Eindhoven is my home town. It's also the home town of Philips, who made lightbulbs and radios there. During WWII, the Germans occupied the Philips factories for their own purposes. The British Air Force bombarded the city several times to attempt to destroy the Philips buildings. Though there was a lot of damage that destroyed a large area of the city center (and a large number of civilian casualties), the Philips factories survived and the buildings are still there to this day, though not in use by Philips anymore. On September 18th 1944, Eindhoven was one of the first places that were liberated as part of Operation Market Garden, and as part of that operation, the Allied forces had to install several Bailey bridges over rivers and canals in the area, where the Germans had blown up existing bridges while retreating. On the 19th of September 1944 (the day after the liberation), the Germans bombarded Eindhoven, causing more damage to the city and more civilian deaths. Before WWII, the train tracks were about 100 m further South, at ground level. The first station was built in 1865 and is on one of Vincent van Gogh's paintings. The second station was built around 1912. Because Eindhoven was an important junction in the railway network (with connections to Tilburg, Den Bosch ('s-Hertogenbosch), Venlo, Heerlen and Hasselt (Belgium; this track was taken out of operation in 1959 and removed), the railroad crossing near the station was closed for up to 45 minutes out of every hour during the day in the 1940s. After the war, it was decided that the destroyed area of the city would be rebuilt as part of the Marshall plan, and the train tracks would be raised up, with several tunnels underneath to allow traffic to go through. The roof of the new (third) station was built with parts of the Bailey bridges that were left behind by the Allied forces. The station is still there (and is now a National Monument) and though the inside was thoroughly renovated a couple of years ago, the outside still looks the same as when it was opened in 1956. The old station was in front of the current station, and was demolished after the current station was opened.

Might be interesting to mention this in a future video. Thanks.

@@JacGoudsmit Thank you for such a great response, and answering my question. What a home town, to live in (I visited once on a day off when doing the Nijmegen marches, many years ago). It's a really nice story to see that something required for war has brought shelter and another purpose for so many years afterwards. Also it's a realisation that the costs both in lives and financially would go on for many years and reuse of the parts really brings it home. Sadly the RAF and the destruction brought to your city in the attempts to destroy the mighty Philips factories, mirrors so many places in the Second World War, and as a British person you travel Europe aware that history was erased and destroyed in what were occupied countries in the attempt to bring freedom. Certainly I've crossed the Netherlands in path of my Grandad and read of the damage caused by the tanks as they pushed through into Northern Germany. Many places sadly damaged, but many repaired too, but again at a cost. I always think how many families always had empty seats at the table post 1945. As you bring up the name Philips, it is certainly very sad to see how a company that thirty years ago was everywhere in the home, has shrunk and sadly closed so much of it's European manufacturing. Certainly in the UK we lost quite a number of Philips plants. I hope that it was a case of Philips moving to new factories in the area around Eindhoven and not fully out of the city or the Netherlands. Eindhoven must be unique in the number of station moves for such a major station, but as I tend to find with the Dutch way of doing things, it's always right in the end. I can't help just see that constant change and upgrading everywhere (Rotterdam is incredible for it). Thank you again for the response.

@@CabviewHolland 👍 I must say the quality of what you produce is amazing, and I really love seeing the notes too. I'll sort you out a cookie, leave it with me! There were a couple of times on this run that with the in cab warning tones (the bells) I was half expecting the train to break into a Carillion Peel😀

Thanks! :-)

Ik heb dat laatst gemeten en het is een stuk langer dan Hoogeveen - Beilen, waarvan ik dacht dat dat het langste stuk recht spoor was. Ik ben even vergeten hoe lang het hier precies is, ergens tussen 15 en 16km geloof ik.

:-)

Dat zal een dubbelganger geweest zijn..

@@CabviewHolland kan ik heb geen idee maar waneer ga je weer naar Groningen???

@@brian.1715 Dat weet ik nooit van tevoren.

Oke

Je mag je reactie natuurlijk gewoon in het Nederlands geven :-)

Not bad :-)
