Excellent video Mr Boogie. Seeing the railway from a different viewpoint is amazing. Great to see the line is very busy with a bit of freight thrown in for good measure. Well done 🤓

Thanks for this video. Brings back happy memories of holidays spent in the towns and villages along this line between Trier and Koblenz.

I do like Moor Park. It’s got that quiet feel to it as it’s only few miles from Watford and Rickmandsworth. And is close to the Hertfordshire & Buckinghamshire border.

I like hearing the announcements on your videos, all part of the atmosphere. But this station seems particularly blighted by them at times

As always a excellent video and history lesson Mr Boogie. I can just imagine a V2 on a rake of Gresley coaches heading north on the Master Cutler to Sheffield back in the day. Excellent video as always Mr Boogie 🤓

Looking forward to the Rhine valley video! I have travelled that route both on a river cruise and on the old slow line between Koln and Frankfurt. It's very beautiful.

I have quite a backlog of material from recent trips. I think the Mosel valley will be ready soon. The Rhine will follow that.

Many thanks for this! I used to live in Cologne in the 1980s and loved exploring the tram network. I think I still have the network map from that time.

Great video of the tram system. So many European countries have a far better integrated public transport system that puts us to shame. 🤓 🤔

@@deauvilledad07 While Cologne‘s transport is well integrated, as is all of Germany‘s transport, the light rail system the city has is flawed in many ways and ideally shouldn‘t have even been built the way it is today. A full-size metro complemented by trams would‘ve been better.

Not travelled by train for years. Leicester to st Pancras was a regular journey in those days. Rail strikes drove me off using trains, but i still miss the peaks.

The DB ICE trainsets appear to have very noisy driving cars compared to the other DB trains,or is it just my hearing?

Possibly something to do with the low speed. They seemed quiet when on the main line. Very similar to UK class 374.

More serious graffiti. Definitely worse than when I was there last. On the good side though, your video gives interesting views of the station complex and the Hohenzollernbrücke.

Shame that the Croxley Rail Link isn’t going to happen for a long time. Plus Chiltern Railways trains don’t stop at Moor Park but do stop at Rickmandsworth. Perhaps TfL should run a Metropolitan Line shuttle service from Amersham and Chesham to Watford using the unused branch line between Rickmandsworth and Croxley.

Some seriously nasty graffiti on the rolling stock, unfortunately. Definitely worse than it was about 12 years ago, when I used Köln Hbf. Thanks for these updates though.

Excellent video Mr Boogie, didn't realise Angel trains and National Express had operations on the European continent other that just in the UK. So that will give me some homework to do. Can't wait for the next episode. As always well done 🤓

Given the announcement about delays caused by track repairs I assume the second part of your video was filmed on a Sunday. Nice to know that they, too, are "sorry for the inconvenience caused"!
@BoogiesTrains
@BoogiesTrains Ай бұрын
Some of my material was definitely on a Sunday, however I observed significant delays on ICE services from both the north and south at Cologne and Dusseldorf over several days. RB and RE services were also not as reliable as I would have expected 10 years ago.

Not likely to happen soon I'm afraid. My next exotic trip away is to the Isle of Man. There are several more videos of the Rhine and Moselle area to come.
@bobfennell3717

Good video as always. I have often been on Orpington to Victoria stoppers that get held up at Shortlands waiting for a fast to come through. When the delay is more than a couple of minutes, as was the case here, I wonder why the signallers don't let the stopper through and then put it in the loop at Kent House. Is it the result of pre-programmed signals and consequent absence of flexibility?
@BoogiesTrains
@BoogiesTrains Ай бұрын
The stopper is occasionally allowed to go on and might be looped at Kent House or even Herne Hill. The latter is difficult because Thameslink is usually coming along soon and needs to be on time at Blackfriars.

The lines you filmed at around 10:40 are to the left (as viewed) of the HS2 line of way emerging from the tunnels. They are sidings for the delivery of tunnel castings that come by train from Grain I believe.
