To make this video authentic you need to pause it at 6: 32 for about one or three hours due to -signalling issue-. During this time you are not allowed to use a bathroom and if you really have to you should make sure you have had at least 7 homeless people pissing on your floor prior. If you need to make it more realistic you can take any chair you like and rip off the seat, then have a homeless dog sleeping on it for a month before using tape to reattach it to the chair. All this while sitting on your washing machine jumping like if you rode a donkey. Ah and not to forget! Flush down about 200$ to feel what a commuter lives through every month.
I love trains but this train is the reason i bought a car.

I drive this train, although not on this route. It-s a comfortable train to drive - breaking is excellent. You can perform a rather aggressive breaking, but it will still be comfortable. The biggest downside with this train from my perspective is the lack of a cabin door. This means that I as a driver will have to wait for everyone to get out of the train in order to get in and start readying the train - and if the first passenger door is out of order, then there-s a looooong way to the cabin. It-s a poor decision. During rush hour this can delay the train - and there is nothing I can do about it. Thank-s for the video - it was very fun to watch: )

Thanks for the nice report! Please be aware that this isn't considered an IC3 trainset in the Danish terminology. IC3 is a DMU only and an EMU isn't by definition be a -lastest generation- of an DMU.
The IC3 mistake lead some people to comment - -oh, how nice that the IC3 is still operating. - Although the IC3 is indeed in operation, these people get the wrong impression since they in essens are commentating on a DMU which usually has a shorter life span than EMUs.

Oh no, you forgot to show the gangway between the trainsets! The driver's console can be turned to the side opening the front for passage, just like the IC3 DMU.
Also, you're lucky you got an unrefurbished train. The refurbished train has no paper towels in the toilet, rather a very uncomfortable air dryer. On the other hand, unrefurbished trains have the exact same seats in 1st class save for the leather, refurbished trains have new, more comfortable seats

Like your videos and that's a matter of fact French trains operating to or from Germany and Switzerland to encounter the same electrical voltage change as Denmark and Sweden 25Kv 50hz (60hz it's for North America Western Japan and South Korea) to 15kv 16. 7hz. The reasons why it has the island on The Danish side coppenhagen Airport

Because of the thick rubber bulges at the ends of the car (and thus also at the front of the train, these trains are nicknamed -Gumminasen- ('rubber noses') in Germany. The IC3 drive from Denmark to Hamburg, Germany, too, via Puttgarden, Germany, where the train was boarding a railway ferry or left it. - Cheers, Heinz

You should really get on board of the HSR between Oslo Central Station and Oslo airport, the -Flytoget- or airport train, consisting out of GMB Class 71, with a very nice and comfortable interior and interesting, different kind of layout

One thing I noticed taking this journey is the language on the displays changes as soon as you get to the first station on the other side. This includes the reservation screens just above the seats.

Your videos are always amazing. One little detail: when you mention the tension you put in like - 25 Kv - or - 15 Kv -. The proper way is - 25 kV - or - 15 kV -. Anyway, thanks a lot for your videos!

I love that you describe this as perfect, my journey two summers ago was disrupted in both directions. Still a -cancelled- train doesn't contribute towards -late- train statistics, apparently.

These trains are going under refurbishment and the refurbished ones are better in my opinion. Also while they are trains that cross borders they do serve as regional to long distance trains in Sweden.

8: 20 you say MOST passengers get off. Has the border control ended? Because it involved getting off and passing through temporarily set-up booths before re-boarding the train

You told us how beautiful the journey was but showed almost none of it. I wish that you would balance the review evenly more with scenery and train information. Thanks

Unfortunately you had an train with old interior - the updated ones are more pleased. And you actually can classify these trains as a sort of commuter train

It would have been interesting to look out the window at the bridge/island/tunnel transition. That kind of engineering is something to marvel at.

Another great video. Seeing the artificial island makes me wonder how long until a wall needs to be built around it to protect it from rising sea levels.

I did this as a return journey (but the other way round) last year. Did you get questioned by the transport police on the train too?

They refurbished the seat when I rode it last month. Services are great except for the fact it always got crowded.

Even a $14 toll seems a bit steep. But a $74 toll! That-s more than a tank of gas! (For most cars as least)

The bridge toll for the car was set to match the old ferry fare. They also have to pay off the bridge costs.
