You need to know, that this day, a huge flooding in the west of Germany between Aachen and Cologne, the south of the Netherlands and Belgium occured, that destroyed many railroad track, as towns and did cost many lives. A 2 hour deleay is more than reasonable for this trip. Your train also might be the last train on the track between Cologne and Aachen before it got destroyed before the huge flood occured. The rain destroyed a lot in that region and your video might show the last appearance of the old tracks.

Again I am so ashamed for my country (I am Dutch) seeing these sleeping arrangements. I already traveled in exactly these compartment setups 45 years ago when I was a small kid. Only with 2 persons it is a nice travel. I was so hoping for a more modern smart new compartmenting. Look at some japanese trains. In addition it all looked from the seventies and lots of wear and tare I saw in the video. What a missed chance to make the sleepers great again.

Back in 1999 i took the CNN City Night line train from Vienna to Cologne, luxury single cabin with dawn feather blankets, shower in cabin and bathrope and private breakfast incl. Champagne. The round trip ticket costed 750 DM back then the equivalent of 750 Euros today with inflation considered. I'll never forget that luxury night. there was even a bar/nightclub car on the train. Perfect experience!

As someone living in Germany, I can safely say that rail service in Austria feels superior. In my experience the Railjet/Nighjet trains have always had functioning wifi and air conditioning, and the stations throughout the country feel far more modern than Germany. Hope that in the coming years the DB goes through a large scale modernization of its stations and infrastructure.

You have found a wondrous life, riding trains each day and capturing the experience, and making money from it. Bravo! I love that view from the cafeteria, looking out the long line of windows at the trains! Reminds me of a few scenes from Star Trek (A TV episode and a movie) where people are looking out a long line of windows at the ENTERPRISE in a spaceport.

Love the sound the engine makes when starting. What a pleasant way to say -Look out I'm moving-.
I prefer 10 am to 7 am arrival times, I am not a morning person. And nothing is open at 7 am. So you get there early and have nothing to do because nothing is open.

Your videos are fantastic about these trains-
In South Africa we have a VERY VERY bad railway system as they steel the rail tracks and the copper cables for the signal system. -
The say it could take ten years to get the system working properly again

Yes this service looks great. About a decade ago I went from Brussels to Vienna and back. The night train started only from Frankfurt, so I had to take the ICE Brussels-Frankfurt first. Very doable, but of course this is much better and more comfortable.

Do you know where that diversion went? At 22: 29 the train passes through Pulheim (which is northwest of Cologne, but in the south-east direction, i. e. opposite of the overall direction of the ride

When did you do that trip? In summer 2021 there were very severe floods in the region, and the Aachen to Liege railway line has been interrupted for almost 2 months (mid July to mid September.

I just wish they steam-cleaned the sidewalks to get rid of the gum like they do in Switzerland. And stop smoking and living damn butts everywhere! But great video. Thanks!

I SO disagree about the arrival time. I hate it when you get woken up at dawn on a sleeper! I'm NOT a morning person, so arriving 2 hours late is a bonus!
Brilliant trip!

I took a Swiss Narrow Gauge train tour in 2010 that included, Bernina Express, Glacier Express and Golden Pass. I remember eating mouthwatering gelato in Tirano.

I'd love to take one one day. Just compared prices yesterday and it's still more than twice as expensive as a flight for my route. I guess I'll save up; )

There were a lot of cars on that train. You might want to explain how you knew which was yours and where, roughly put, it was on that long train.

Skip to 5. 20 to see the train. Before that it is all about the Vienna Hauptbahnhof (Main Station) which is possibly worth a video of its own.

You should try get an OBB train from Wien HBF to Hallstatt. I tried that. It is so beautiful. You can see the mountains and lakes.

My question is how warm or cold is the cabin; especially after you take a hot shower a cold cabin would be bad for your health.
