My RUclips channel is dedicated to the experience of travelling, especially flying (but not exclusively). Each airline (and aircraft type) will offer its own unique experience and I am glad to share with my journeys with you. I am happy to share my views, travel tips and information during my videos but ultimately I hope my trip reports will enable you to form your own opinion of the travel opportunities and services on offer. That's why I chose a "fly-on-the wall" style of trip reports to put YOU in the passenger seat

Stunning scenery. Thanks for sharing!
@@fionnulafitzsimons4893 thanks for watching 😎😃
Great video! I love the fonts you used for BLUE COAST TRAIN!!
@@Luke_Starkenburg thank you 😎
By the way another amazing train line to ride in the south of France is the train des Merveilles, I do recommend 👍
@lepastresgentil9467 thank you. So many interesting and scenic train rides in France
No way ! You’re back ! I can’t believe it Great video
@lepastresgentil9467 thanks. I promise you won't have to wait for my next video as long. Good to contribute again
Welcome back ! Such beautiful scenery thanks for sharing.
@@CPMC-6180 thank you 😃
I know it is no fun filming going through tunnels, that is a big part of the experience between these two cities.
@@andreroux850 oh yes. That's true as well of other train journeys I did. Such as Bergen to Oslo (I created a video on this trip as well). Still very enjoyable. Thanks for watching
How is the weather in the first 2 weeks of October?
It's still warmish on the coast but more changeable. Cooler inland especially in higher altitudes. Mind you I am considering October for next year as you bag a few bargains on the seasonal flights that still operate then! Thanks for watching
19:04 30 November 2024 I really enjoyed walking with you on your journey. I used to take a train from Johannesburg to Estcourt my home town in the early 80s. It was so refreshing. I wish we could have it again. Thank you.
You are very welcome and thanks for watching 🙂
I once traveled on Premier class from Durban to Johannesburg and back early 90s. Really enjoyed the trip. Want to try again as it seems like a safer option than driving
@MelvinCheasemann-ox1vh thanks for watching. It would be great to hear about your experience if you do that trip again. I have other train videos to enjoy too 😊
Sehr schön.😊
@@JoachimStadler-bx3oy Danke
I went to that type of first class 1 year ago! :D
@@MaximillianMog hope you enjoyed it?
💕never ever London
@@neiabloomfield5416 Air Corsica served London (Stansted) for 1 or 2 seasons before COVID. They still serve other destinations on the continent (seasonal services). Thanks for watching
The regional government has vague plans to restore the line down the east coast from Casamozza to Portovecchio. It was destroyed by WW2 fighting only a few years after completion, but Portovecchio's population has more than doubled since malaria was eradicated. Gradients are easier than on the main Bastia-Ajaccio line. There could even be extensions to Bonifacio, at Corsica's southern tip, or to the airport at Figari.
@@HobartBloke you're right I read about it. I seriously doubt it will ever be built
@Speedbird1FLY More likely that branches will be built to the airports at Bastia and Ajaccio. At least the existing network's future looks secure. It almost got the axe in the early 1970s.
@@HobartBloke that would be a nice addition. I am glad that such great train lines were kept in Corsica. I have been as far as Bastia from Ajaccio. Never tried the branch line on the North west coast
fun
@@Luke_Starkenburg and you don't see many metro services with a first class section
I'm looking forward to some of these ferries becoming battery electric. This is already happening for some shorter ferry routes.
@@Luke_Starkenburg that would be great. Especially knowing that the diesel used by boats is notably very polluting
AMAZING!
@@Luke_Starkenburg thanks 🙏
Nice!
@@Luke_Starkenburg thanks 👍👍👍
I'm surprise you took video of the person checking your ticket on the train. Nice video!
Classic old circle terminals gone. New, modern airport replaced it. Its more efficient, but more walking and lost history.
it’s sad but it was gonna happen someday and unfortunately it was more recent than hoped.
If you fly to MCI again, you won't recognize it.
Spain has so many wonderful tram systems, so I'm surprised that this is the only one in the Canary Islands. This must be the biggest city there.
I'm not a fan on massive advertisements, and I really dislike wraps on trains because it hinders the view from passengers to the great sights, but I like the ads on the columns. I think it is well done.
@@Luke_Starkenburg I fully agree about the wrap advert on trains or any kind of screening on them windows
I like these POV's. I want to visit again for the food and also to see and ride the 4 car trains.
Very similar to the train at CDG and also at ORD! We have a similar train that links our airports!
You have given me inspiration for my next trip to Norway

Thank you kindly for taking the time to reply to my query. Happy travelling.
Informative. Would have been helpful to see how to find a taxi but no doubt its sign-posted. Looks quite cramped and your last observation suggests you are not all that impressed. Fortunately only two hours and better than the 'plane option.
@@andrewgrant5357 thank you Andrew. Both stations have clear signs and well connected It's not the best first class I experienced but for a small price difference well worth it. The speed is impressive and it gets you to your destination so quickly Thanks for watching
Do we still have this trains running in 2024
is that the swiss lok 2000 in finland called sr2 because i hate it
Where to get the tickets?
Hi, please check the notes.for this video. More information there. Thanks for watching
I think it would be a VERY smart decision by Belgrade and Podgorica to reconstruct this entire rail line.. doesn't matter who does it.. (Chinese come to mind). But completely renovate and reconstruct it and it will be a major tourist attraction. And yeah.. get a a couple of brand new overnight trains with massive windows and nice restoraunt, beds, toilets.. it would pay off quick i'm sure. Maybe a few short touristic stops along the way? I would pay good money for such a ride for sure.
Not sure the pace matters for tourists, the onboard facilities do and I think a restaurant would be a great addition. Upgrading the line would be a massive investment and serious pax or freight traffic would be needed to justify it. I wonder if there are any plans to do so.
The first class is NOT first class enough. No sleeper compartments for two with showers and private bathroom?
Thanks for watching. I am not aware of any overnight high speed train services hence the absence of sleeper compartments. Those trains are just too fast 😄😎
???. 3 or 4 hours for Marseille or London from Paris !!
actually, the locomotives were made at Electroputere factory in Craiova city from Romania, but they have been revamped by Serbian companies during the 1990, due to the fact that Romania allowed NATO to bomb Serbia from it's teritory, the serbs removed all mentions of the original manufacturer of the locomotives. Electroputere Craiova was building these under license from ASEA Sweden, obtained sometime in the 1960. It was a huge factory, building the locos from scratch, including transformers and control panels. Raw materials, like steel sheets, were obtained from Romanian factories, like the steel factory from Galati, apart from the license, the whole machine was romanian. Nowadays only a part of the factory survives as a shopping mall, some of the patents were taken over by Softronic, but they never had the facilities to build locomotives like the old Electroputere company. There was also a bogie factory in Bals, which supplied the wheels for the locomotives as subassemblies.
It's is a revelation to me. I was under the impression that railway travel in south africa is dangerous.
Thanks for watching. I've never had any issues during my visits to SA. Security was present and it's always good to use common sense and precautions .
What is the best way to get from Charles de Gualle to Gare Montparnasse? We will flying in from the US and will be taking a train from Paris to Bordeaux. Also to clarify are there 2 main rail stations in Paris, du Nord and Montparnasse? On the SNCF Connect site to get tickets, it looks like I can only book from Montparnasse
RER from CDG to Gare du Nord, then metro line 4 (the purple one) from Gare du Nord to Montparnasse.
or Uber!
There are actually TGV train services to Bordeaux from Charles de Gaulle airport. For your departure station enter: Aeroport Cdg2 TGV Roissy. Avoid the hassle of changing to go to Montparnasse station.
why him alloaver..
That was a nice video! We are planning a trip in June going the same direction. Can you tell me what seat you were in? We are trying to figure out the direction of the train because we want to sit facing the direction we are going.
Hi, thanks for watching and your nice feedback. I can't remember the exact details but I believe the seat selection had criteria such as window/ aisle and position. I would have hated having a seat facing backwards for +6 hours. I hope you have a great trip
Very well made and informative video, ignore the haters buddy❤
Thank you. I appreciate your positive thoughts. Means a lot
Vive la France !

My niece is called Linda van Helden, and I took this fast ferry between Helsinki - Leningrad. 5 star review..
We booked the first class tickets from bordeaux st jean to paris. Our seats are upper deck - wondering if there are any issues with boarding big luggages? Safety wise, any concern?
Hi, I would check if the service you chose is direct to Paris. If not, I would keep the bags within easy reach. I've seen passengers use bike security cables as well. there's storage for larger bags on them upper deck
I've been in it from Marseille to Antibes, very good ride and comfort. Jolie et meme les trains OuiGo aussi.
Thanks for watching. And the train ride to Antibes must be very scenic?
Unbelievable!!! Every other comment is about food service. It's a 2-hour ride!!! Are you people malnourished? This is France, people tend not to eat between meals, so most will either eat before getting on a 2-hour train ride or at destination. Trains are for transport not restauration. French sh*t to do on a train: reading a book, praying, making a plan to off your annoying neighbor, flirting with another passenger, ... you know ... NOT stuffing your face.
Food is part of the service and the SNCF has a gap there and compared to other premium train services operating in France. Great to see that people are so passionate about it
Hi guys can you tell me the price of the ticket?
