The window to the driver uses a special glass containing liquid crystals that can be made transparent by applying an electrical current. The driver has control over this feature. This solution was chosen because: -Some drivers wanted privacy (on older trains curtains were used for this purpose) -passengers were supposed to be protected from traumatizing views should the train hit an animal or even a person Because the glass uses liquid crystals that turn transparent only by applying an electrical current, they will become opaque once that current is interrupted. This happens when the train loses power, e.g. when traveling through a neutral section of the overhead power line. This is most likely what happened in this case. The AC will also shut down while in a neutral section, making this a dead giveaway.

The window becomes blurred when the central energy supply of the train is switched off (or when the train driver doesn't want to be seen). Temporarily, the important electrical devices like the lights, doors and toilets are powered by the battery. There are different reasons to switch off the central power supply e.g. crossing the border or passing an electrical separation point of the catenary. You can also hear it, when the A/C-fans are stopping.

A seat reservation just costs a small extra fee and I usually forgo doing it because oftentimes you will still find a seat if you're not picky and I usually don't travel very long (it's usually something between 45 min and 2 hours) you just have to be aware that you're only guaranteed a seat if you reserve one.

If book them a week in advance it will cost you something between 17€ and 30€ during less busy hours (for example at 1 or 2 in the morning). So you need to be flexible and you need to be early.

It is important to mention that the seat reservation screen always shows the part of the journey that is reservated. Like if you go Wien Würzburg Dortmund It would Show Wien - Dortmund, Wien - Würzburg, Würzburg - Dortmund, Maybe first Wien - Würzburg and then Würzburg - Dortmund etc etc. Sometimes However it's just saying "Possibility of being reserved". Still, a seat can be free in that case. Or it can be reserved for a part of the journey and on the free part you can sit there etc. To the blurred window: As far as I know, the driver can decide if he allows passengers to watch. So they can decide if they blur the glass or not. After all the years of service, this could simply be a malfunctioning system? I mean it's not even blurred all the way as it should do normally.

@stephanweinberger 3 жыл бұрын

The window blur is also triggered by the loss of overhead power. The intention is to have it automatically blur when the driver pushes the emergency power-cutoff - because that potentially happens right before a traumatizing view... The side-effect is that it also blurs on sections where the main switch has to be turned off (e.g. joints between different feeder stations of the overhead power line; in this video it happened shortly before the German border; the separation between German and Austrian power feed is located there: goo.gl/maps/wgE2E8Ye5RHMcC646 - note the blue signs on the masts, they announce the 'power off' sign at the border).

@lzh4950 2 жыл бұрын

Japan's JR East's E353 rolling stock meanwhile uses a traffic light system to indicate seat reservations (older trains don't have such a system to show reservations but instead dictate that some cars are completely free seating while others only have reserved seats). A blue light above the seat means it's reserved, a red light means it's free while a flashing yellow means the seat will be reserved from the next station onwards. The system is now redundent though I think as I recall that the services that this rolling stock main operate on ( _Kaiji_ & _Asuza_ ) have since made seat reservations compulsory

The seats are the same basic model as in the ICE 3 but the armrests are narrower because the body is narrower due to the tilting system. The phone booth seen at 12:30 shows the age of the train: These were taken into service when mobile phones weren't as common so the trains still offered pay or card phones. Which were however quite expensive to use and didn't work on all international relations.

It is about one of America's 'city' trains from the past. It has been performed by several artists, including Arlo Guthrie (1972). The story behind the song is what I think might interest you. It came from an actual train ride. It was also part of an effort to try to stop the cancellation of that train. Wikipedia and other sites have more info. It was written and performed by Steve Goodman. Tragically, he died at age 36 from leukemia. He wrote the song after his diagnosis. A couple of lines I like: "Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor And the sons of pullman porters And the sons of engineers Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel"

Sry Guys, but my English is bad. So I answer in german. 😅 Maybe someone can translate it? Nein, die ICE-T's werden nicht durch den ICE 4 ersetzt. Ganz im Gegenteil, die BR 411/415 werden noch über 2030 hinaus im Einsatz bleiben. Ein Redisgn ähnlich dem ICE 3 ist seit geraumer Zeit angedacht, wurde aber bisher (außer bei einem Prototypen) nicht umgesetzt. Der ICE 4 (BR 412) ist als Ergänzung bzw "Ersatz" für die ICE 1(BR 401) und 2 (BR 402) angeschafft worden. Ersatz ist hierbei nicht so zu verstehen, das die alten Züge sofort verschrottet werden. Es geht eher darum die ICE 1 und 2 aus den stark nachgefragten Strecken abzuziehen und sie auf weniger stark frequentierten Strecken einzusetzen. Die BR 401 wird hierfür extra in einen weiteren Redisign (mit u.a. einer Anpassung der Zuglänge auf 9 Mittelwagen) umgebaut. Es ist aber noch nicht klar, ob alle 58 ICE 1 Züge das Redisgn erhalten. Es ist gut möglich, daß einige Züge als Ersatzteilspender ausrangiert werden. Beim ICE 2 hingegen sieht es ziemlich düster aus. Es gibt zwar noch kein endgültiges Datum. Aber es ist wahrscheinlich, das diese Züge noch vor 2030 außer Betrieb genommen werden. Da diese deutlich verschlissener sind, als die ICE 1.

i guess it had a music radio play thing, never saw one in old ICEs...or it was planned but never came into live traffic

It was in the old ICEs, but with the first refurbishment they removed the screens and 3,5mm sockets.

Ah, seat reservations! My experience with DB is that it can show the seat unreserved and then somebody pitches up showing they have reserved that seat! Very confusing! I once tried to book a seat on the ICE from Cologne to Brussels several days prior to date of travel only to be told no seat was available. However a few hours prior catching that train I was able to reserve a seat! What on earth was going on? It does seem there is a problem within their reservations system.

I don't like it when it's sitting in the opposite direction to the train's march

Do the sound barriers do anything for nearby residents or are they useless like highway ones? I know they cost a lot of money and obstruct the scenery on a lot of French lines, right?

I don't think the trains should be replaced they aren't that old

L'ICE a un système qui permet de rendre la vitre opaque selon les souhaits du conducteur, cependant pour que la vitre soit transparente elle a besoin de courant électrique, donc sous les zones neutres ou de baissez-panto la vitre non alimentée devient opaque

Is this train part of the NWA railroad?

Unfortunately you chose the wrong time to record the tilting action. The best time to do this is between Passau and Plattling and Regensburg and Nürnberg - these sections of route are where the higher speed is permitted due to the tilting and is where you see tilts of up to 8°. In Austria and other sections not fitted with this system, the train will only tilt to about 4°.

What job do you do where you have to travel so much? Just youtube or what?

@Andrewjg_89 3 жыл бұрын

As ICE 3 and ICE 4 has been built. Do you think that ICE 5 trains could be built and to be tilted. Just like the Class 390 Pendolinos.

The window can manually be blurred. But it's strange, that it does it randomly

@stephanweinberger 3 жыл бұрын

It's also triggered by the loss of overhead power (to avoid traumatic views in case of an emergency), so it blurs whenever the main switch of the train is off (e.g. when passing a border between two feeder substations).

I would prefer s9me narration, instead of the fine white print on the screen. The train itself is very beautiful and accentuates how poor USxtrains are in comparison! Oh, how I would love to primarily travel by train - the civilized way to travel, and see the continent!

You do any train trips in Asia? You should try some trips in Sri Lanka, India, Thailand et al. There are some gorgeous train routes in Asia and it’s really cheap to ride them. India has an extensive railway network and lots of scenic railway routes. And China too. I’d also recommend Australia and NZ. Try the Indian Pacific and Ghan in Australia and the Coastal Pacific and TranzAlpine in NZ.
