Here the same route is in the last video, although this time with a 2 more perspectives. I tried a few different combinations to find out which one the majority of you prefer. I tend to prefer the view with the backwards facing camera in the top corner. The question is, should it remain there during the entire video or be faded in when the view is interesting? Do you mind the forward facing camera disappearing during the trip, while for example a side view is displayed, or would you prefer having the side view somewhere on the screen simultaneously? If enough people are interested, I could also upload the videos of each camera seperately. This is one of the few railway connections linking Switzerland with Germany, with InterCity services from Zrich to Stuttgart via the black forest railway. Interesting about this connection are the three border crossings, due to the way Schaffhausen breaks out over the surrounding Swiss border, which tends to be the middle of the Rhine. During World War 2, Schaffhausen was even mistaken for Germany and bombed by the Allies

Here's my idea. The rear view is alright, but I would prefer smaller in the corner. Especially, on the passenger trains, so we could watch the embarkation/disembarkation of passengers at the stations/depots/platforms. A camera for each side would be a nice addition for this. Also, speedometer showing the speed (being that I'm in the USA, MPH would be nice, but, I'll settle for KPH if I have too) While we are at it, telling us the distance from start to finish along with a trip odometer, so we could kinda keep track as to how far we have travelled. (One other thing, the more trips we watch, do we get frequent flyer miles)

Thanks for the explanation as to the error the US did in bombing the wrong part. I think that happened with another of your videos when a bridge got bombed by the US. perhaps by mistake? Good explanation about criss-crossing the borders as well. The different camera views were good. I will go back to more of these diverging line videos. Good seeing familiar lines from other videos coming in from time to time. Did some of the passenger services need additional loco assistance because of the snow? Thanks from Australia.

I have really enjoyed your videos. I prefer to always have a forward (front) view, even if it is smaller. The side views are also interesting, when relevant. I have a question - how does the loco driver return home after an international journey like this one? Does he wait for a loaded train to take back, or does he get to the nearest passenger station and return on a regular service train? Thank you!

The most enjoyable alternate view I ever saw was on a Paris to Lausanne trip where the 2nd. camera was installed as follows:
at the very end of the train,
extremely low to the ground, right by the wheels,
looking forward.
Must have taken lots of work, but the result was priceless.
This trip thru the snow was very pleasing!

My primary interest is the front view, so I would kind of like that always in frame, but I really liked the top and bottom split at around 18: 00. Also the side view is occasionally interesting, like at the Neuhausen Rheinfall, but mostly I like rear facing camera, esp. when a curve brings the rest of the cars in view. Great work!

I took this very same line from Germany in 1972, when the conductor came by to check our Passports before we crossed into Switzerland, he told us in German: You are now leaving Singen. .. and there are two towns nearby that are Klingen and Ringen. We are very musical down here: Klingen, Ringen and Singen! I'll never forget it.

In my opinion, the rear view is only useful when the train takes a curve. Otherwise, you're going to see part of the first tank, who is partially blocking the rear view. The lateral view is one of the most common views in the train videos. I'm delighted of the Hi-Res, Hi-Quality of the views. Cheers for that!

I like it when the cab view is always there and occasionally supplemented with an additional view: backwards at a turn and when passing a station, or sideways at an overpass. I prefer the extra image in the upper right corner or occasionally the image vertically split in two.
reply

I like the backward view fading in when there is something interesting to see such as passengers getting on and off, otherwise the front view is fine! Side views would be great when going through the mountains and gorges though! Thanks for another good video!

Once again what i said about this very same line in a video going in the other direction. That house at 47: 16 is already Germany. The border(line) is in front of the house and between house and railwayline. .
