I don't know about any other viewers of this channel, but I for one am glad Erik is back posting regularly. Hard to find a YT channel with better quality and presentation. This one feels like part of the new chapter Erik seems to be writing this past year or so.

It’s nice to see mixed freight and passenger cars together on the same train!

Hello, I am a Chinese. I have been watching your videos for a long time. Sometimes when I am upset, I will watch your videos, which will bring me back to calm mood. So, I've been planning to express my thanks to you for a long time, but several times I given up on posting in the comments. This first message is because I saw the change of expression on your face, I know the reason by reading your message to others. This video is the most beautiful video you have shot all the time. Every frame is as beautiful as an oil painting, but I want to say that I prefer to see you setting up a tent in the wild happily. Thank you very much for your wonderful videos, because these videos always remind me not to forget the most beautiful nature, this is the most beautiful life. We can talk if you want. Pray for you.

of course you were a train driver The Pilot Parallel is a great pen for architecture Please could you show how you carry your kettle so nothing gets dirty from the soot Thanks

Lovely film making. I'll bet that house liked you drawing it.

An interesting departure from your "Usual," ....... whatever your Usual is, lol Loved it!

I absolutely love the blend of visual and audio story telling. Thank you Erik!

Beautiful video, as always, both visually and aurally. So immersive! Great to see that old coffee pot again. 👍

And that was just, very beautifull, nothing to add, thanx!!

Top quality sound! I just had a bird flying over my head! 🙂

Love it. Excellent composition! A lot of questions remain....

Very peacefull.Always enjoy that you have some brids in your videos.Takk.

Wow, very beautiful Erik! I'm a big rail fan.

The peacefulness and serenity captured in this video leave you with a calmness that not even the noise of the passing trains can dampen.

Nice to share a " Holy Moment " with you again,Erik. ☕ Your videos are truly unique. I feel transported to another dimension when I watch...

Härligt med lite tågporr en söndagmorgon 😍

That was excellent. You have quite the eye for cinematic composition. In the past you seemed to focus on the natural world, but even with this new direction, your elegance as a film maker comes across. A true artist. Keep up the great work as you are able.

What a lovely video, made all the more poignant by an abandoned house, one wonders where the dreams went...passing trains...the passing of time... Thanks, Erik.

An instant classic, for me at least! My two favorite hobbies/activities are hiking/primitive camping and trains (both full size and model). Your video brings an artistic eye that I have never seen before in a railfan video. Well done!

Great way to start a weekend. A classic Erik film. I had to screenshot the scene where you where sketching as a train was rolling by. That captured all of what you are. Artist, Nature lover and a person fascinated with trains. All you; Mind Body and Sole all in one shot!! Nice job Erik, What a gorgeous little village that is.👍 PS: The sound track of that bird hanging around you was a nice touch.

Another great video! Loved the added soundscape. Nice mix of urban and woods.

This was a very serene look at life in transition. Beautiful!! Thank you Erik.

This old abandoned house is very spooky Erik. Wonder how it came to be disused....still looks fairly solid...galvanised roof and guttering still good. Old barns seem to indicate it was a farm. Presumably the owner(s) died or went into old age care and had no-one to pass it onto? Love to know the story.

Nice Video and quality. To be honest, I much more loved your outdoor adventures in the past with tent, ski or kayak which are the top level of being in nature.

Really awesome!

Would’ve been interesting for you to spend a couple days in the house

Vere unusual and beautiful film. The neverending train with woods was heartbreaking. Reality at its best. Thank you.

Brilliant story telling!

Such a well shot little story surrounding the house. The aspect in it's proximity to passing rail life. It's a delight to see your art now. All the very best Erik. Thankyou. T. 🇭🇲🐞 Qld Australia

The details on the porch reminds me the House at Moomin valley. Beautiful video. Thank you Erik.

Great vídeo. Thank you :)

Underbart att du kan visa så mycket intressanta och vackra saker med en 10 minuters video. Höstens sköna och varma färger, det gamla huset, fågelboet på utelampan av Kattisträsk teknikhuset, ditt enormt fina tekning, senhöstens fågelliv - med kontrast till järnvägens buller. Tusen tack, Erik 😊

I remember years ago visiting Finland--my mother's family were Swedes from Finland who came to the US in the 1890s--visiting my mother's cousins and looking at the old old houses my grandparents had lived in. There was even the "old house" where they had lived up until about 1750, a small log cabin now used for storing things, and it had poles with crispbread on them at ceiling height in a modern house. Old very large homes with only slight traces of red paint, one much too big to keep up and heat in the winter, and my grandfather's family had been very well off, but he got some fever from milk (possibly TB, but there were no tests back then) and they came to the US to live in the mountains for his health. Living in the mountains of the American West, I enjoy looking at the old homesteads, large and small, in the places that are not yet converted into a ski resort or old ranches sold off to make room for 50 second homes in the mountains.

A beautiful, stunning film! All that timber, car after car, and the second train blasting to get more.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. I love the location, the trains and the art!

It’s been a while that we don’t able to see your thumb’s up after a sip of coffee. And that’s is amazing Erik.

Erik, your lovely and peaceful videos always make me want to visit Sweden! Tack!

The calmness in captivating excellence film scoring reflects perfectly your personal characteristics - quality, capability & peace. Well done & received, Erik! Greetings from Finland and stay well, Br, Janne

How are you Erik? The old house, and sketch rendering is an excellent way to record the interesting places you come across in your travels. Good to see you again, my friend! Stay well!

Beautiful video Erik. Those seed pods in front of the house seem as lupinus. Must be a nice view in summer. 👍

Sir, absolutely stunning ambience. One of your best works. Thank you for doing this.

Another great video and I was enthralled by the different sounds the different trains made as they passed you by, from the high pitch whine of the 2-3 carriage people carrier to the deep rumbling grumbling of the huge Green Cargo train and your sketch of the abandoned house was, as always a work of art! Kind regards from deepest Dorset 👍

Well, there it went. The Swedish forest. 😢 Really nice film. ☺️

Many holy moments there :)

Erik, loved this video because it was so different. Tranquility interrupted by mass noise for a good reason. Keep them coming

This is really neat. Reminds me of the train sounds at my brothers cabin in Mariedamm. They put another track in and the Swedish Government paid for new double pane windows and insulation t his cabin. Looks like you have snow like us in Wyoming......first 1 inch or so this past week

I think I remember you once said you’re a train driver as profession? Great video once again and even trains can be soothing to the eye and ear. Maybe can you post what brand are your shoes?

Those trains far away from other human noises and activities- good job. And skilled filming. Thanks:)

Your videos are always special and the trains and sounds made it extra special👍

Beautiful opening shot! Has a Twin Peaks feel to it…

I love your vedios Erik

Outstanding, Erik! You have a mind-blowing variety how to show the nature in the north part of our country. Remembering the bridge and frozen river i heavy snowfall. Very inspiring for my own modest hiking and fishing adventures round the Gothenburg forest and lake area.

I like wandering and discovering like you, I wish you happiness and good luck

Enjoying the Train-pass soundscapes.

Have no idea where this place is but it sure looks like a lot of fun to be there. Thanks for the show From New York

Exceptional

ever so peaceful

Härlig mjuk stämning i denna film. Trevligt med lite nytt på din kanal!

Shoulder season... trains & hobo coffee 👍

Very artistic. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the video Eric…you definitely have a talent in the area of art…stay safe and take care !!

Impeccable!

Very immersive. Well done

En till fin film. Du är en fantastisk tecknare och målar talang.

I love this property, I could totally live there!

That is quite a lot of coffee 😬😍

Underbar film ! Full av betydelse.

Looks like the perfect place ;) Great atmosphere and it's so calm out there. Really nice Erik

Poetry in motion

Cool. ❤. 🇸🇪

I didn't know you were a train otaku. Every video we learn something new about you :)

Perfect!

What a nice video! Thank you! 👍

Amazing work! Something tells me Erik draws at least some inspiraiton from Andrei Tarkovsky

Another incredible video. Would be fantastic if you made some of your art available through your website Erik? ☕ 👍

Hej Erik, 🏞️🌞 .... äntligen efter så lång tid en bra video från dig.👍👍👍 Helt proffsigt ‼️ tittar bara utan att prata. Underbara bilder.... Jag såg videon flera gånger i rad. 👍😎 Förhoppningsvis kommer det fler professionella videor som denna nästa år. Hälsningar från Berlin.🌄🌲🌳🍂🍁🌞

Staying local is the way to be, despite the fact that I'm a transplanted Finlander in the Canadian woodlands.

You can buy these old farms up north quite for cheap

Man undrar varför det där huset är övergivet och vad som utspelade sig där. Vem bodde där? Hur länge har det stått övergivet? Kul video Erik. Annorlunda.

Huset har klarat sig fint tack vare plåttaket

visste inte att de va din film, men kände igen dig på ryggen, fin film! ska börja se dina filmer igen, en fin höst hälsa Lars-Guran

Peaceful ✌️

I always wonder what happened, why the job or family situation didn't work out. You hope it is not a sad story. Thanks for the great video.

Green Carlo, well, it depends. Impressive to watch.

Seems that Erik becomes a railroad enthusiast ;)

nice one. TY

Ha, this is great! As a career freight railroader in California, I have become more interested in how Green Cargo operates their trains. My cousin recently retired with them after a lifetime of service near Stockholm. I like the electrification of the operation, and my cousin has previously answered my question about train length; the Green Cargo trains are shorter due to length of passing tracks (we call them sidings), but I didn't think to ask him about braking. In this video, we can see how quick and smooth the pulp wood train came to its final stop, which seems much more responsive than how the air brakes work on our freight trains. Do the freight cars have air-operated brakes? It may be the camera lens or angle, but it also looks like the size of the rail is lighter than what I am familiar with, and that indicates to me weight on axles must be lighter on their lines... but that was likely just the lighter rail put down for siding/passing tracks. Great job with 7103 at Umeå coming into view out of a curve. You paid attention to your camera angle allowing the gap of daylight to be seen between the top of the rail and the sill of the car body. Doing that helps sharpen the definition of the movement and speed of the train. Telephoto use dramatizes the intensity and business of the train. A lot of railfans miss those ideas.

Tänk om man kunde åka tillbaka 100 år och titta…

Hey Erik, been enjoying your videos for a long time now. What fuel do you use in your Trangia stove?

Tack för söndagens frukostfilm. Härligt avslappnande. Nu skall jag ut och plocka trattisar.

👍

Do you have any history of this home,like why it was abandoned?

No intro-crow? 😄

What will they do with all those twigs?

if I'm not be annoy, can you tell me which is the main camera you used for this video...? Thank you very much

Erik, do you still have audio recordings available for purchase?

Great video! Is the crossing at 0:01 at 64 40 50N 20 01 58E ?

This place could well be in the middle of nowhere, but isn’t it bizarre we live in a world where you can have abandoned but seemingly serviceable properties and people living rough at one time? 🤷🏼‍♂️

The amount of trees cut down is desolating 😔
