Train Cab Ride NL / 's Hertogenbosch - Utrecht - Schiphol - Rotterdam / VIRM Intercity / Oct 2019

- Today we have a very special ride because of construction works. Maybe you now think: again?! Last time you had construction works as well! Yes, you're correct! And this video was also recorded in the weekend. During the weekend most of the construction works take place in Holland.
We start our journey in 's Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch). Normally I don't drive train here but I know the route because the shifts on the HSL bring me to Eindhoven (via 's Hertogenbosch) when trains are diverted on their way to the Watergraafsmeer (Amsterdam). Because there are construction works today all shifts have been changed and that why I get to drive this train.
After our departure from 's Hertogenbosch we drive the train to Utrecht. That's pretty normal acutully, but today two train series have been coupled together. For that reason we take the train from Utrecht to the Airport in Amsterdam and from there on we continue our journey towards Rotterdam.
In Rotterdam another driver took over the train and then continued to Dordrecht with it. But that didn't fit in my shift for that day. That's why we get off in Rotterdam.
So, it's going to be a long but easy ride. Sometimes you'll see we have a very small delay but that is no biggy! At all the stops that are upcoming we arrive perfectly on time again.
Oh and another fun fact: in Leiden you will see loads of people expecting the train to stop a little further at the platform. And I agree with them. But the driver also follows the signs on the rail roads. In Leiden you can see the blue/white signs giving the stop place from the train. To have all trains stop at the B-side of the station (and not partly on the junctions) those signs need to be replaced with fully blue signs (2/4/6/8/10/12). It's a long story... But until that is done trains will keep stopping at this place when they have four carriages and come straight from the A-side of the platform. Can be very annoying.
Alright! That's it for this week folks! Next week there will be a WARP SPEED version of this video again. If you have questions you know how to contact me! Cheers!

At Leiden, I liked the way everyone walked calmly along the platform to where the train had stopped. Here in England, there'd be a mass stampede!
Always keep it calm, keep it cool. 😁😁😁
Dutch people know there will be another train soon. Brits know how their system works and fear it's the last one.
Unlike those in the US, Dutch train stations are clean and modern. A fascinating trip and we saw every mountain in Holland :)
😂😂 That's so good to hear! We do our best! 😁😁😁
@Kevin Speelt? I must have been in Switzerland, then.
@Kevin Speelt? There are! But they are very stretched and run alongside of rivers and canals. :-P
Whahaha.. :D
@Kevin Speelt? Nah, we have the Dutch mountains... ;-) And the hills in South Limburg.
you know i'm a big fan ... another nice ride..i never get tired of your videos of holland and their trains
Hi! Thank you so much! Really appreciated! :D
I love these videos .. they give me a chance to see parts of this wonderful country... I hope to visit this country one day soon... maybe move there
Be welcome! The Netherlands is such a beautiful country indeed! 😁😁
Machinist Stefan The Netherlands are amazing but the weather is even worse than in Germany. During summer the Netherlands feel like California or so but in winter it’s really pushing me down.
Always impressive, how modern all the little towns and cities look. And the dutch infrastructure seems to be extremely good planned and thought-out. Greetings from Dresden, Germany to The Netherlands :D
Thanks for this great compliment! 😁😁
Leuk om het ook eens vanuit het perspectief van de machinist te zien.
😎😎 Goed te horen! More to come!
Here you are driving my favorite train style. I like these double decker cars and also the color scheme is my favorite one. It looks like these are the biggest cars too and a 14 car set is "impressive".
Thank you so much Rod! :D At max we drive 12 carriages of the VIRM with passengers. Longer trains are only allowed for empty trains that need to be shunted away. :D
I was hoping you would hit Mach 0.12 on the straight! Also, every time you are whistling, it gives me comforts that there is a human being operating this machine.
140km/h is the maximum at our conventional tracks because of the soft soil in Holland (we're living meters under sea-level). 😁😁
And I agree.... Having humans operating the trains give a so much safer feeling than letting it be done by computers. 👍👍👍
@@MachinistStefan That's another interesting factoid. Onward.
Servus Stefan! Ich liebe Deine Videos und freue mich schon auf das Nächste! 👍👍👍 Herzliche Grüße
aus Bad Vöslau!
Thank you so much Herbert! 😁😁😁
Oi. Sou do Brasil. Conheci seu canal a poucos dias e estou gostando muito de viajar com você. Ótimos vídeos!
Hi Marcelo! Thanks for your compliment and welcome to my followers! :D
Thank you so much for your attention. I would also like to see the train control panel as you drive!
Super Video...thumbs up!
Zo rustgevend dit, je zou bijna denken dat dit een goede trein simulator spel is
Als je hem zelf zou kunnen besturen zou geen simulator er tegenop kunnen. 🙃🙃 En idd. Altijd enorm ontspannend om onderweg te zijn met de trein. ❤️
To be honest, watching a cab ride like this makes me realise why Video 125 goes to so much trouble waiting for the decent weather, taking shots of the driver, filming runbys, producing maps, researching the history and providing a commentary.
Haha, I'm just a train driver giving an inside on the job. Good weather, bad weather etc is all in it. Also, if he does all that I don't think he's the driver himself. ;);)
Also: it looks like he's making serious money with his channel. ;) I do this just for fun. And... Next to my job I have a private life too you know :D
If you can call £11.47 in 8 weeks "serious'" money then you would be right. However, we have over 100 PREVIEWS of our DVD, Blu-ray and Download railway productions on RUclips to give people a good idea of what they are going to buy. As these are effectively adverts, there is no way we would wish to monetize them. They are FREE of external adverts. Why do we charge for the discs etc? Because of the cost to produce. It genuinely costs thousands of pounds to produce each one. That was really the point of my original comment.
And now you know why I can't do that. :) I'm just a train driver having some spare time every now and then to create a video like this. Waiting for good weather etc would not give a complete picture of my job. :)
@@MachinistStefan JUST a train driver? You do yourself a disservice. Most of the viewers on this RUclips would love to do what you do, me included. Well done.
Stefan, this was a great ride again. I am learning I need to read your comments BEFORE I view the video. You answered several questions I was going to ask, in your notes. You were not as descriptive back in these old days and I love it how you tell us where lines are diverging to or coming from these days. Had seen that construction work at Delft and Rijwijk on someone else's video. I guess that must be all finished now. Tell me which video to look for that. I had seen my first 12 car Double Deck on another video. Good you explained why there would be a 14 car one. Good you explained why folks were getting caught with the shorter train than expected. I commented on another video where that train stopped at Rijwijk that the escalators may have only been in operation on the platform when needed as it was still at first then I saw people riding it, nearer departure time?? Thanks again, keep the descriptiveness coming. Some different stations and you explained why at the beginning.
Hi Geoffrey! True fact... I'm adding more details to the description now than I did in the past. One of the reasons why I publish video's ones in every two weeks now instead of every week. :)
The work between Rijswijk and Delft Zuid is still ongoing. Big project. In one of my latest video's you can see an update about Delft.
Elevators are always working (if not faulty). This because people need to get off of the platform at any time. At Rijswijk both platforms are always in use by the way. :)
@@MachinistStefan Esclators I was talking about mate not Elevators. Keep em coming!
Ah sorry... Those are always in use. Same as the elevators. After a few minutes they automatically stop working until someone approaches the escalators again. 😊
@@MachinistStefan Yes so I was right...as you said re escalators and I wondered. QUote: After a few minutes they automatically stop working until someone approaches the escalators again
@@MachinistStefan yeah that was what I thought happened with the escalators. Now another question. What are the big numbers 1 and 2 on the trains? Is 1 the power car and 2 the trailers?
4 bakken is voor mooi eigenlijk net te weinig op dit traject. Top video trouwens weer!
Volgens mij is dit een extra trein.
Klopt! Is een soort extra trein. Echter is het wel wenselijk minstens zes bakken in te zetten. Echter ga ik daar niet over. Meer dan melding maken kan ik niet doen. 😉
Weer een hele mooie video meester !!
Thanks! 😁😁😁
Very nice video man! I love the Netherlands and it's beauty.
Thanks! 😁😁😁
🚂🚂Awesome 🌴🇮🇳🌴 Video 👍👍
Thanks! 😁😁😎
Mooie video, machinist Stefan.
Wat dat funfact in Leiden betreft ben ik het met je eens, ook wij in de haven van Amsterdam hebben van onze opleider meegekregen niets op de wissels.
Vraagje: de koppelingen werden vroeger altijd afgedekt als de 🚆 treinen werden ontkoppeld nu niet meer geeft dat geen storingen meer op de scharfenbergkoppelingen?
Ha Roelof! Haha... tjah, op zich is dat natuurlijk handig. Maar als de dienstregeling het toelaat dat de trein met de kont op de wissels staat dan is dat natuurlijk geen probleem. In Leiden is dat het geval. In de toekomst gaat dit wel weer veranderen had ik begrepen.
Nee, dit geeft geen storingen. De kap is er ook vanaf gelaten omdat dit het proces van koppelen en ontkoppelen versneld. :)
Den Haag HS looks very elegant.
It's such a beautiful station! ❤️
wajo, ik zat in deze trein. ik herken de hele route.
Is weer eens iets anders hè. 😁😁
Well done!
Thank youuu! 👍👍😎
1:26:56 dat was toch altijd je favoriete geluid? 😉😅😂
🤣🤣
Ja maar dat is sowieso op Zondag en avonds die lange rit van Venlo naar Dordrecht via Schiphol en Rotterdam. De treinserie 3700.
Is dat zo? Weer wat geleerd! 😁😁
Beautiful country - amazing bridge architecture.
When you write that you "know the route" - does this mean you "know" each change of track, or perhaps the Stations on that route?
You write that it will "be an easy drive" - is this perhaps because of the long long straight sections of the route?
When I see "Temporary Vmax" - what does the V stand for - surely not Voltage?
Are the chimes and appearance of speed indicators generated by the Train Manager relative to the many factors on the route?. Obviously "Prepare to Stop" is obvious.
When you have a change of speed indicated - how long does it take to slow to that speed? And how long to reach a higher speed?
I saw lots of construction sites, but did not see any workers?
Does your daily schedule usually or often give you weekends off? In a previous answer to me, you noted the hours you usually drive in a day.
Hi Paul,
1. The driver must know the route completely. We also get to drive trains in the mist with almost no view at all. :)
2. No, just a ride with no particular delays or something.
3. Haha, in this case it's just the speed. To be honest Vmax is not the correct term for it. In Airlines the V stands for knots. But I use it for km/h. If I would change it, what would you prefer?
4. All speeds etc are added to the video by me. ;)
5. All signal are on braking distance from each other (for all trains). Gaining speed depends on many factors. Weather, weight, train type etc...
6. Workers also work at night.
7. I'm working weekend on and off.... So I have 25 normal weekends a year.
@@MachinistStefan Learning so much. How fun. Thanks.
I'm still confused about "knowing the route completely" - There are obvious direction changes of track, for different destinations, where you are to cut off to the right or left - perhaps THIS is what is meant by "Knowing"?
It means knowing everything that you need for driving trains. Stations, junctions, speeds (locations)... All in both directions on all tracks.
Op ruclips.net/video/2zZzxItZgPc/видео.html is de brug zonder stroomleiding, hoe gaat dat met stroomafnemers. Ik denk dan dat ze na de brug in de bovenleiding blijven hangen.
De stroomafnemers gaan hier op NL-materieel naar maximale hoogte. De bovenleiding loopt daar omhoog zodat het contact met de bovenleiding verloren gaat. Aan de andere kant schuift de stroomafnemer weer onder de draad. Bij al het buitenlandse materieel (TRAXX bijvoorbeeld) moet de stroomafnemer worden neergelaten.
@@MachinistStefanthnx, dat maakt het een stuk duidelijker
Hey, I thought that you said that in the next couple of videos there would be more rain in store. In this video it looked like rain, but continued to remain dry although there were dark clouds hanging about. Let's see, maybe in your next video there will be rain. Till then I will enjoy your warp video of this particular route which is scheduled to release next Friday. Cheerio. ☺☺ ☺
Haha, I can't tell when it will rain and when not? 😂😂 Just saying that it raining a lot more during autumn. At this moment it's almost freezing and the sun is fully out! ❤️
@@MachinistStefan How can it be freezing when the sun is shining? You see, when the sun is out the ice tends to melt. Imagine enjoying the sunshine while shivering at the same time. 😨😨😨
@@MachinistStefan Mother Nature does what ever she wants. Here in California we are looking at the third 'wind event' and power blackout in the past two weeks. I really don't want any wind driven firestorms, but the last blackout which ended just last evening was 46 hours.
@@anmolmehta7116 Easy... Sunny freezy days are pretty normal. When it's cloudy most of the time the temperature is a little higher during this time of year (and those clouds most of the time contain rain). Clear skies make it colder very quickly.
@@chrisbillington3341 Oh my! Hope you're okay and those firestorm stay out. 😥😥
in een woord geweldige video
Thanks Frank! 😁😁
@@MachinistStefan graag gedaan kijk vaak jouw video's
beste Stefan? ik zag een paar weken geleden een route van een IC(door werkzaamheden) , die begon in Den Haag CS en toen via Leiden,Amsterdam Sloterdijk,Amsterdam CS,Hilversum ,Amersfoort en Zwolle met als eindbestemming Leeuwarden. Heeft u daar gereden en zo ja heeft u daar ook een cabinerit van ??
Ja, mooi is dat he als NS de rit zo aanpast tijdens werkzaamheden. Alleen de kant dat dan precies ik die dag die rit ook rij is zeer nihil. Sowieso heb al geen wegbekendheid van Meppel naar Leeuwarden. :)
I'm curious... if you're putting the speed transitions up -- which, thank you, I love that -- would it be possible to leave the current speed on screen the whole time instead of only for 5 seconds during each transition? Just a couple words of text in one of the corners. Or actually, if you wanted to get fancy, you could have two different speeds listed, the line speed and the signal speed at any given point, which would help beginners understand what each signal/signpost means. In theory, since you already go through the fuss of putting the speed transitions in the video, leaving the speed up the whole time shouldn't be too much more work than currently... just a wild thought.
He used to do that in his earlier videos (still available on this channel), but it takes a lot of time and effort to put those numbers in the video. There is unfortunately no way to stream the speed of the train and the allowed speed and merge this into the video. Another option would be to use a second camera and film the speed dial, but that would require a second camera on a place where it would interfere with the operation of the train. As I understand it, NS and her personnel have agreed on conditions on taking pictures in the cabin, which actually only allow the front facing wind screen camera. Train drivers have to be able to focus on operating the train at all times.
@@Zerk1978 1) Drivers can still record the speedometer, because such videos are still being posted, though I understand it's quite a pain to have two cameras these days, and 2) I wasn't asking about the actual speed, only the speed limits, which he *already* puts into his videos, including this one :) just that they stay on screen instead of disappearing after 5s
Hi! That's what I did with my previous videos when I just started creating them. This actually took too much of my time and it's already a lot of work to combine my work (every day other working hours) and private life together. 😉😉
Filming with two cameras is no option (safety first). And getting the speedo meters on camera with the same camera that shows the outside view will just mess up the quality of what you can see outside. 🙃🙃
Very good video!!!
Thanks! 😁😁😁
OK. Maybe I missed something. Just after the beginning of the video there is an extravagant bridge construction deal happening. Or is that how the bridge will look eventually? Really fantastic either way!
You mean at the 2:10 mark? That is how the bridge just is.
@@brianbp4f Good Grief! Absolutely fantastic.
There's some pretty cool infrastructure on Dutch railways
Gotta love the Dutch infrastructure! 😍😍😍
This is the bridge just as it should be! 😁😁
inside of the cab is not shown! takes away the full joy of watching it
I might take pictures of the cabins and show them in the videos in the future. We'll see..... 😉😉😊
Machinist Stefan Many thanks for the reply!
goedenmiddag beste luisteraars vandaag kunt u genieten van maistro stefano's 4e fluit symphony. bijzonder is dat er een treinhoorn in voorkomt. De opname word begeleid door een soort van gedeggdeng geluid wat deze compositie uniek maakt...
😁😁😁
👍 Thanks for doing them.I love these videos are great. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My pleasure. :D :D
Sehr schönes Video =) Fahren sie auch mal von Venlo aus ?
In Richtig Den Haag und Co ?
Thanks! :D No Venlo is not in my roster :)
@@MachinistStefan Wo fährst du den in der Regel oft herrum ?
Ik heet Gosse Bierma ik vind dit een goede op name van het mee rijden met de trein heel vee groeten van Gosse Bierma uit Meerssen.
Ha Gosse! Thanks voor je compliment! 😁😁
Mooie video!
Zou u ook het materieelnummer in de titel of eronder kunnen opnemen?
(Mogelijk zie ik echter hier op mijn iPad mini zelf iets over het hoofd)
Die staan er idd niet in. Die kun je eventueel terug zoeken op treinposities.nl. Even in de historie kijken. Datum en vertrektijden heb je. 😁😁
Leuke video man!
Thanks! 😁😁😁
Op 1:16:48 geeft u aan dat u 1 minuut later bent vertrokken, maar als ik dan op het bord met vertrekinformatie links kijk was u precies op tijd vertrokken.
Lijkt maar zo. Je kijkt hier schuin tegen de klok aan. Als we op tijd hadden vertrokken had ik de tractie eerder af kunnen schakelen om op tijd op Laan van NOI aan te komen. 🙃🙃
maar t mag ook van Zwolle naar Vlissingen via Roosendaal..(Staatslijn F en de Ijsselroute)
Helaas! Van die route heb ik alleen wegbekendheid van Den Bosch tot aan Breda. ;)
hoe weet je wanneer je moet afremmen voor een station?
Wegbekendheid van de machinist. Daarnaast seingeving en er staan langs de baan vaak borden met een langgerekte S die het rempunt voor een station aangeven. 😎😎
Hoi Stefan. Mag ik vragen waarvoor de toeter was op 5:46? G
Dat was een test van de tyfoon. Op elke trein moet een keer per 24 uur een test worden gedaan of die het nog doet.
Een typhoontest idd! 😁😁👍
Mooi gefluit meester en ook een hele mooie video
Thanks 😁😁
Goeie reis
Genoten? :D
Ja, zeker.
2:36 min. Dat was een zéér korte, maar zeer felle regenbui.
ik durf het bijna niet te vragen, maar ik hoop dat je een grap maakt lol (dont no shit sherlock me just checking)
@@nielsmallant2710 Nou eigenlijk niet, want ik zag daar echt een donkergrijze wolk hangen, precies op die plek. Misschien moest die wolk spontaan huilen omdat zijn broertjes niet mee wilden doen met regenen.
@@James-gk2pq het was de ruitensproeier 😂
No shit, sherlock. ;-)
Even de ruiten wassen... 😜😜😜😜
Hoi, rond 12:00 nog de spoor van Tiel. Werd niet aangegeven.
Ben ondertussen achtergekomen dat alleen de Betuwelijn wordt aangegeven.
Idd! De Betuweroute vond ik deze even speciaal. 😁😁
leuk mooi kanaal ik ben net geabondeerd op jou
Thanks! En welkom! 😁😁
Zo kom je nog eens ergens als machinist ;) Mooie video meester!
Precies! Dankjewel ook! 😁😁
These rides make me sleepy.
Good for bed time videos then! 😁😁
No speedo = no thumbs up. :-((
No problem. 🙃🙃
ennnuuu een beetje machinist is kampioen moppentappen... tis maar stil zo word je noooooit kampioen tonproate.
@stefan glassex verslaafde poets nueroot 🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anders hebben jullie vliegen in beeld hè. 😉😉
@@MachinistStefan nee dat is jouw poetsverslaving... geef het maar toe anders krijg je op je kop van mevrouw de machinist 🤣🤣🤣
