Alishan railway isn´t weird to me - it seems just practical in order to gain an elevation on very short section of track. Loop tunnels are quite common on mountain railways across the Europe (Switzerland, Slovakia, Bulgaria...)
Looks far weirder on a map than it does in real life. I've travelled over the Dulishan spiral a number of times and even though I know where I am on it, you don't feel like you're going around and around as you generally can't see the rest of it thanks to the dense vegetation.
Yep when there is a spiral there is elevation changes.
there are numerous videos on such spirals, several spirals in the United States are large, but the trains are so long that it just loops around the entire spiral, with the back still entering it by the time the front exited the spiral
me waiting for londons northern line
And the District Line
And Paris’s bis lines, ect ect
What's weird about the Northern line?
It's just two branches, albeit in two areas.
And the District is just a relic of how the tube grew up.
@@quintuscrinis8032the history of said branches is odd, for example the mill hill east branch, or the kennington loop
Also Central as well
That bloody Hainault loop
The Tuen Ma Line does have a lot of unique things along its route. Also I love the caption given to KCR and MTR on the part explaining why the line pass through Kowloon City.
Also just imagine how expensive it would have been if they chose to dig a tunnel like 1:40 shows
Also what will they gonna do with the southern section the 1:40 tunnel bypassed (I think the Mei Foo-Hung Hom section)

In Buenos Aires, the A line has two half stations (Pasco and Alberti). They were so close together that the company decided to eliminate one of the stops, but instead of having to choose which station to remove, they preferred to removed half of each.
A bit to the west, Plaza Miserere station is located in some kind of bulge. The reason of this shape is because there were plans to build a new City Hall, and the line was designed to avoid its foundations.
i have heard of combining stations on a line, but never literally!
gotta admit, it does appease users of both 🤣😎
@@bostonrailfan2427 There used to be a shared, extra-long platform between Manchester's Victoria and Exchange stations. Exchange no longer exists, and several platforms were removed from Victoria, but it's still possible to see where it was.
@@Kromaatikse same platforms at two stations? that’s like the Blue Line in Chicago where it’s the same platform for a stretch of multiple stations stops and no breaks in the platform at all
The Alishan Forest Railway is simply doing what mountain railways do best to conquer their terrain! It reminds me how Hudson County in NJ used to have a complex streetcar system called the North Hudson County Railway that conquered the Hudson Palisades. The oldest predecessor line of the North Hudson County Railway opened in 1861. Three companies were consolidated in 1874 to form the North Hudson County Railway Company. These streetcars ran all the way up to the 1940s. The network connected Journal Square in Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken, and Union City. However, a portion of Hudson County is a line of pretty steep cliffs that makes up part of the Hudson Palisades.
How did they do it? By devising many engineering innovations from a huge and long elevated trestle, viaducts, funicular wagon lifts, and an elevator! By devising many engineering innovations from a huge and long elevated trestle, viaducts, funicular wagon lifts, and an elevator! Tackling the cliffs this way was an engineering feat, especially for the time. There are still remnants of this streetcar feat, like two former trolley buildings next to the Supremo market on Palisade Ave in Jersey City (one of them is a doctor's office), and leftover trolley tracks on Hudson Place in Hoboken next door to Hoboken Terminal.
Love these videos! The Wenhu line is actually a rubber tired VAL system, so it’s not as loud as one might expect when making those sharp turns lol
A weird train line that looks interesting not because of how the line looks on a map but rather how the trains look and operate, is the MTR Disneyland Resort Line. It operates as a shuttle between Sunny Bay on the Tung Chung Line and Disneyland Resort. The rail link was constructed by Gammon Construction and completed in April 2005, and officially opened in August in that year in preparation for Hong Kong Disneyland's opening. Sunny Bay station has a futuristic theme, while Disneyland Resort station has a Victorian theme. The idea was that the train would act like a time machine, taking people from the future to the fantasy world of Hong Kong Disneyland
The trains themselves are very different from the rest of the MTR network as they have Mickey-shaped windows, Mickey-shaped handles, and bronze statues of Disney characters in glass displays. The trains that run on the Disneyland Resort Line were the first on the MTR to use automatic train operation during normal operation, followed by the CNR Changchun EMUs on the South Island Line. But the operator's cab area has been retained.
Speaking of incomplete loops, there’s also Metro 51 in Amsterdam, which could easily be converted into a loop by linking its terminals Isolatorweg and Centraal Station. Also, before 2019, this line used to ran along trams, which makes it even more interesting. Because of this, the line used narrower cars with platform extensions and needed to run on both third rail and overhead catenary.
Also, i’d like to mention Brussels Lines 2 and 6, which may look like a real loop (as for line 2), or a loop with a branch (as for line 6), but actually you have to transfer at one station to continue the journey (Simonis/Elisabeth) with is the terminal for line 2 at its both ends and one of the terminals for line 6 and it’s also a through station for that line.
It’s a good thing then that the Wenhu Line in Taipei uses rubber-tyres light metro technology! So no high pitched screeching!
That is a very smart move.
The old Gotthardbahn in Switzerland also has lot of loops to help the trains gain elevation in the mountains. It is no longer used for long-distance trains though, where the new, straight Gotthard Base Tunnel under the mountains took over that function.
The reason why the Tseun Ma Line had to be connected down at Admiralty and not what the creator drew (he drew a line directly from the end of the Ma On Shan Line to a point on the West Rail Line) is because more people live down at the bottom of the U than everyone on top. The bottom parts of the “U” comprise of the busiest parts of Hong Kong, it was the cheapest way to connect and it maximized accessibility, allowing people from upper north to come down for work (I’m not sure if you understood, if not I’ll edit and try to explain it better)
Hong Kong actually has lots of weird train lines despite having only 10.
For example the line with only two stations, the Disneyland Resort line.
Or the Tung Chung Line and AirPort Express Line, the two lines share one track at some parts of the line and at one point have to crisscross from left side to right due to the AEL (who is on the southern side of the TCL) needing to go north towards the airport.
The Tseung Kwan O Line is a line that splits into two paths, like a snake tongue. One leads to Po Lam, public housing (residential areas built by the government) and one to MTR developed Lohas Park. They alternate at around two trains to Po Lam then a train to Lohas Park.
There is the East Rail Line, a train line connecting to Mainland China, it also splits off. One heading to Lo Wu and one to Lok Ma Chau, two ports connecting to Shenzhen.
Admiralty, although not a line, is a weird station. It is the hub of four different lines. The start of the South Island Line, Tsuen Wan Line, East Rail Line and is a major station of the Island Line. This makes it the one of the busiest station in Hong Kong.
There are four stations on the map that are actually only two. Central and Hong Kong, Tsim Sha Tsui and Tsim Sha Tsui East. They are stations so big they need to be split up into two stations that are connected with tunnels so you can get to one another.
One last thing I find as a Hong Konger weird are loop lines. Many cities have lines that are in loops, we don’t, and I don’t get why loops exist, they are confusing,
其實香港好需要一條環線（黃埔-北角-鰂魚涌-藍田-觀塘綫其餘各站）但價錢會好l高港鐵冇可能願意起😂
"Tseun Ma Line had to be connected down at Admiralty" wat. (Also TML was misspelt)
The splitting lines are VEEEERY tame compared to everything else around the world.
The Central/HK and Tsim Sha Tsui/ETST stations are separate architectural structures and are distant enough to be considered distinct stations.
What are you finding in Loop lines that make them hard to understand? Also HK does have 2 loop lines, the Light Rail 705 and 706 systems which are just the same loop in opposite directions, separated probably to avoid confusion.
Please do some research becore commenting.
@@ACYosh quite obviously either lives in hk island or outside hk 😂
@@ACYoshtechnicly 614p and 615p is also a loop line too cus they thru run with each other in normal service
Your proposed extension for Barcelona line 4 reminds me of the TOEI Oedo line in Tokyo (not sure if you mentioned it in your videos)
But basically,it's a sort of loop with a branch (that actually operates as one line) where trains from Hikarigaoka go along the line to Tochomae,go around the loop via Roppongi and Iidabashi before terminating at Tochomae (and doing the reverse in the other direction).
The Oedo line is pretty interesting in itself,as one of the few lines without through-running onto other railway companies' lines,the usage of linear motor propulsions,the steep gradients and the small trains and tunnels not to mention other stuff,the line is pretty interesting,to say the least.
Your complaints about incomplete loops seem pretty weird to me. Loops are usually most effective when they encircle a city, going through many major sub-centres. Most of the 'incomplete loops' you've called weird are more functionally like two radial routes that just happen to end close to one another. This is kinda similar to the case with the Tuen Ma Line, the goal wasn't to connect the two lines, but rather that extending one line to the city centre just happened to make it convenient to through run onto the other. Weird routes are mostly just the combining of two or more perfectly logical routes together. Not all journeys on a line are going end to end.
He's not complaining about something that doesn't affect him. He just thinks it's weird at first glance from his perspective and wants to share it.
Taiwan mentioned! :P
love this series keep up the good work
Hamburgs U3 would be another honorable mention aswell as the S-Bahn Line S4 that operated in the Swiss canton of St. Gallen until December 2023, when they splitted the line. It did a circle, but not around a citycenter or something like that, but around some mountains. And there would have been other possibilities of rerouting that hourly service, but they didn’t.
Moscow Metro, line #12.
Not only it is U-shaped, it has terminal station where the other line has terminal station.
In the Netherlands there is a metro line around a mid-sized city that used to actually be a full on train line named the Zoetermeer Stadslijn (CityLine). There is also a service to Rotterdam that used to go to a station about 5 minutes away from the central station. Which is not very common in the Netherlands. A U shaped line was also added recently going to a station in a field which connects to train services
As a hongkonger, funny how the tuen ma line is actually one of the most useful lines, despite its seemingly inefficient shape
In Brussels, there are also very strange train lines : M2, M6, S3, S4, S8, S10.
I love this series!!!
Does anyone remember Beijing Subway line 10 just before it was loopified? It is now a loop with 50+ stations, but back then it was just missing four and it looked absolutely horrible
I have a suggestion: the Yellow Line on the Tyne and Wear Metro, where it passes through the same station twice in one direction. (This is called a pretzel configuration. Edificity has a video about pretzel lines like the aforementioned Yellow Line.)
In a similar vein to the Alishan Railway, the Hisatsu Line in Kyushu, Japan, has a loop followed by a double switch back at Okoba Station. Unfortunatly this line was damaged by a flood in 2020 and hasn't resumed service since.
another tuen-ma line oddity: the eastern section runs on the right-hand side, while the western section runs on the left-hand side. a vertical crossover is used north of homantin station.
this is purely for half a cross-platform-interchange in taiwai station
The reason why the Eastern section runs on the right is because the Ma On Shan Line runs on the right to allow a same direction cross platform transfer at Tai Wai station, so that passengers on the Ma On Shan Line to change for a Kowloon bound East Rail Line train. When the Ma On Shan Line and the West Rail Line is connected, and To Kwa Wan station has a stack platform design, the direction change will be done there as well. Hence the line east of To Kwa Wan is all right hand running
The Shatin to Central Link Project was actually a project that lengthened the East Rail Line, rather than connecting the east and west sections of the Tuen Ma Line. The actual name of this project was the East-West Corridor :)
Actually the Sha Tin to Central Link has 2 phase.
The first phase is connecting the Ma On Shan Line and the West Rail Line to form the Tuen Ma Line.
The second phase is to extend the East Rail Line across the harbour to Admiralty
Your next video should look at the SEPTA regional rail system in Philadelphia, and the VTA LRT system in San Jose. Honestly, the route from San Jose to Mountain View is the most circuitous one can imagine, and the terrain is flat between these points.
In my city (Adelaide) there are 2 stations on the Belair line: Blackwood Station and Coromandel station, that are just a few hundred meters away from eachother. (I don’t know if it is weird, but I just wanted to tell you.)
I am so mad about the taipei one, BRO IT EVEN ENDS UP ON THE SAME STREET STRAIGHT AHEAD BRO! I mean it makes sense to have a metro line directly at the airport terminal but it looks SO UNSATISFYING
For me, I think you should talk about the Circle Line in the Singapore MRT. Because we do have a merge south of Promenade station. Namely both the Dhoby Ghaut and Marina Bay branches use the same tracks. Wouldn't that be considered as interlining? Especially during rush hours, both branches head to HarbourFront. And I wonder what would happen after Phase 6.
A person who thinks the Tuen Ma Line is weird will definitely propose to bulldoze inspiration lake to make Disney Resort Line a little bit straighter
I like the first one reminds me one Expressway In the US where the main highway goes down and then you have a split highway to connect to the other part I love highways and trains
You should talk about some German lines. For example the U1, U3 and U4 line in Hamburg. Especially the U4 line is the weirdest one of it all.
You should talk about the Mascouche line in Montreal!
I reckon you could do an entire video just on the Merseyrail network in Liverpool, which consists of two "lines" (the Northern Line and the Wirral Line). Formerly, part of the nearby mainline network was run as a third Merseyrail line, the City Line, but since privatisation this has been transferred to another operating company, and is pretty normal by comparison anyway.
On the map, it doesn't look *too* bad, with several branches on each line, a big balloon loop on one of them, and one or two U-shaped features… but then you dig a little bit deeper, and deeper still, and the weirdness just keeps on coming. Let's start with the fact that parts of it were built by at least six different railway companies - and that's just the ones I know off the top of my head. Then there are the end-on double termini at the ends of some of the branch lines (at least one of which has been the site of more than one buffer-stop collision). Another terminus is dual-voltage electrified, with the Merseyrail trains crossing the mainline tracks to reach their designated platform.
There's a whole heap of historical context as to why all of this is so. This, in the city which served as one end of the very first passenger railway to be operated by locomotive power on a published timetable, and so is no stranger to railway history in any case. For example, one of the tunnels was carefully built to avoid another railway tunnel which, in turn, is long disused (it used to carry goods trains to a dock which is too small to handle modern ships). And there is a tunnel connecting the two lines which is arguably older than the lines it connects; no passenger trains use it today, but it is used to move trains between the lines' depots for maintenance. If you *really* feel like diving down a rabbit hole, look into some of the lines which used to run through the city but which have since been closed.
I'd suggest giving a look at the Beckton branch of the Docklands Light Railway, DLR for short. If you look at the carriage maps, it doesn't look too unusual, until you look at the actual layout of the tracks. After Cyprus station, the line turns 90° to the north, before arriving at the Eastern most station on the whole DLR network, Gallions Reach, but this isn't quite the end of the line. After a further 90° turn, this time to the West, we come to the terminus of Beckton.
The reason why it's shaped like this is for two reasons: firstly, surrounding the penultimate station on the branch at Gallions Reach are points associated with access to and from the DLR's second depot at Beckton, the other one being at Poplar, the second reason is to allow for provision for a future extension to the East to possible locations like Thamesmead
fun of you to include Paris metro line 10 hah
a few additions to the explanations:
- the loop was dictated not only because of the church, but also because of the narrow streets above, since tunnels had to follow streets; there was really no safe way back then to build two tracks next to eachother.
- at the time, trains were not easily reversible, so they would have built a loop at the end anyway. it's just bigger than the others and includes one-way stations.
- the part about line 8 is correct! and explains the weird layout of La Motte-Picquet station, where those two lines intersect.
- part of today's line 13 used to be line 10 before it was redirected to that already built loop; there's now a tunnel linking the two lines near Duroc, where the tracks have been removed.
- line 10 used to extend a lot further east, but that part got taken over by line 7, and redirected to a new terminus at Austerlitz mainline station.
- it also contains a disused station, Croix Rouge, that used to be a terminus before it closed permanently in 1939.
Add to this that the video is not completely accurate at ruclips.net/video/GBOPy9rR0bQ/видео.html. The line wasn't built like this, it originally had just the loop, similar to the 7bis today. The extension to Boulogne was added only in 1980. Initially, about half of the daytime services would still go round the loop and not continue to Boulogne. This ended, I believe, somewhere in the 90's, when all trains were extended to Boulogne (except for some very rare early morning services).
@@MartijnH-ul3xj it ended in 2006 iirc, when the RATP decided limited services wouldn't be a thing anymore on both lines that did that (aka 8 and 10). some rare trains, including the first one of the service, still go around the loop
And for the real geeks: note that westbound trains actually pass through Mirabeau, but don't stop there since the station has only an eastbound platform.
Hannover’s S1 line is definitely worthy of a spot on this list
3:25 As you see on this map this portion was constructed as a loop first and then extended further out…
I've looked at that map of the Ali-Shan multiple loops, and I believe that it really only counts as three loops not 4, using the criteria that a loop occurs where a train crosses over the track where it has just been, rather than any previous levels. I've travelled on it but it is almost impossible to know where you are on the layout due to the trees and other vegetation that exists.
You should take a look at line 15 of the Grand Paris Express, how about a loop that goes too far ? Its even worse when you see the path of the line 16 and how we could just have a simple circular line but nah, they wanted to make things more complicated.
Hamburg U1 should be here.
It's U-turned (literally "U-Bahn) and having 2 branches on the right axle.
U5 is also planned to be U-turned with another counterturn on each axle.
The reason is lake Alster and the city center located in a narrow strip between Alster and Elbe, giving sense for those turns.
There's one quite strange metro line in the Moscow. This is Solntsevskaya line(8a, yellow).Possible she isn't so weird, but she has intresting story
no worries, there will soon be a new train line between tsuen wan west and tuen mun
TLDR(W): trains make weird loops and bends because of bad terrain.
The weirdest thing about the L4 extension is not the fact it'll almost connect we really just don't need proper circle there, it's that it's already built except for an infill station, and that L9/10 is using its tunnel until L9/10 get its own tunnel into La Sagrera. Btw, La Sagrera Meridiana is not the metro name for the station but the commuter rail name for the station.
I hope they rename it to La Sagrera-Meridiana or just Meridiana when they open La Sagrera TAV, if not it'll be a mess xd
@@pizzaipinya2442 honestly with the TAV station only being 2 blocks diagonal of the La Sagrera metro, confusion wouldn't be a big deal, you get out at the wrong stop and have a few minutes walk along carrer de garcilaso
As well as the physical evidence of the tracks spiralling to gain or lose height, or the in one way, back out the other stubs you show in the Alishan railway, there's also the invisible equivalent.
I still remember asking my grandma why we were the only passengers on the train in Dorset, southern England to be sitting facing backwards because it was messing with my little boy's brain, she just did one of those maternal smiles we all remember growing up.
Sure enough we pulled into the next station, there was lots of vacuum brakes puffing, lights switching off, that sort of thing and a man in uniform who looked like a train driver coming back through our carriage.
A couple of minutes later with a click, whirr, kadunk; beep beep beep beep ...
and we were on the move again. Right back out the way we came into the (normal, through) platform.
Ahhhh! Well done Grandma!
Big smile.
[Grand] Mother knows best!
That must be the Liskeard-Looe branch. Definitely one of the stranger railway formations in existence. And it must have been quite some time ago if the train still used vacuum brakes! (Probably one of the first-generation DMUs. The newer Pacers and Sprinters use electro-pneumatic brakes.)
@@Kromaatikse Right grotty bus train, right era.
Barcelona L4 was planned to be a loop, but in order to serve the fast growing immigrant communities next to the mountains, they extended it to Trinitat Nova. Nowadays it would be too complicated, unuseful and expensive to extend it past La Sagrera (they're getting the line there cause there'll be a new major train station in few years).
In my opinion, they should reverse the crossing in Passeig de Gràcia between L4 and L3 (not difficult as they were previously a branched line and the old tunnel is still there). That way, L3 would go from Z. Universitària to T. Nova through Guinardó (nowadays L4) and L4 could become a cicular line with a new tunnel from nowadays L3 T. Nova to L4 La Pau, with a branch to Sagrera :)
PD: Barcelona L3 is also one of those V-shape lines xd
Look at Kyiv Rapid circle train, weird shapes as you like
6:10 Spirals...When this appears you should think about the mountains.
he ignored the terrain in most places…it’s a huge reason for many odd configurations, especially there: it’s a narrow-gauge mountain railway!
The Wenhu Line is not only weird on its shape but also on its system.
They run VAL256 and APM256 a.k.a. rubber tire trains that mostly seen on airport terminal connection railways using 1 or 2 carriages to form a train, it's super weird that they use this kind or system on a metro line that long and also form a train using 4 carriages.
With the Neihu (North and East part) extension, the line is now 25.7 Km long, made it the 2nd long train line that use this kind of system in the world.
So don't worry about the sound of steel grinding on steel cuz its a rubber tire system.
Also commuters hates this line because the low capacity and shaky journey, it serves the high-density Neihu Tech. Park and Nangang Software Park, many commuters use this line to get to work. Taipei Metro now needs to run trains every 85 seconds during rush hours to transport that many people, but that's still way far from enough lol
Sorry, but the Alishan isn't weird, it's just how it needs to be - as your topographical map of the loops pretty well demonstrates.
And even the Naples M1 is only weird if you don't overlay a topographical map. There is more than a 200 meters height difference between downtown and the upper hill section with step gradients in the tunnel, although it makes a loop to lengthen the track.
Yes, the Alishan is a more extreme example of a mountain railway, but by that definition of weird you can make several best of videos about the European Alps alone.
Gotthard, Simplon, Lötschberg, Centovalli, Albula, Bernina, Oberalp, Wengeralp, Jungfrau, Brünnig, Jurafuss are the examples from the top of my hat within Switzerland, and that is only a small part of railways in Switzerland witch in itself is only a small part of the alps...
Another pretty cute loop: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Island_Line
Seoul line 2
Whats so weird about line 2? Isn't it just a loop and two branches going to 까치산 and 신설동?
Seoul line 1 and Shanghai Line 11
@@LaxMarch2022 maybe seoul line 1 might be good since it has so many branches. And maybe line number 6 too since its kind of a u and it has a funny loop at the end.
90% lines mentioned in this series = because geography
its called Switchbacks not reverse stubs, and for some reason that's very common, if you think that's weird take a look at the EBT (East Broad Top) Down in Pennsylvania, or the old Raway Valley in New Jersy or even Horse shoe curve down in Pennsylvania and for some reason if you think that's weird then take a look at the original map of the Midland Terminal or Colorado Silver Springs and Cripple Creek district where there are much more of what u look at here and much more around the area rather than what ur looking at in the video
separate stations for eastbound and westbound trains isn’t new or unique: Boston’s Washing Street Subway was built with this idea! until 1987 or so every station between Dover Street and North Station had two names- one for each direction. and that was inspired by the earlier streetcar tunnel that had a split tunnel like the Paris tunnel that even included a station for one direction only
4:50 A water table in the area? The water table is a constant.
Northern line in London please
Christchurch Trams are pretty weird.
And I thouht Bucarest M1 line was wierd
The tyne and wear metro yellow line has an odd shape
all of barcelona lines are weird like L11 or L12 and L3 I think these reasons are why is it weird L11 i don't know
L3:it goes from Zona Universitaria (almost reaching Collserolla (a mountain)) and later it goes to the coast and it goes back up in Passeig de Gracia and ends up in Trinitat Nova (where L4 ends (its too high (almost as high as Zona Universitaria))) and L12 welp L12 its L12 at a whopping 2 estacions Sarria-Reina Elisenda. Although the two lines are proposed to extend they will be even weirdier (sorry for my grammar im from barcelona and we speak catalonian)
L11: Politicians doing their thing.
L3: basically they did what tgey could with the line almost ending in the sea and the 70s being a "cheap at all cost" era.
L4: Same as L3.
L12: They needed more capacity in the Vallès Corridor and at Sarrià station. :)
Ok thanks

The incomplete loop in NYC is the M, not N. The N is pretty normal.
I thought I said the M? Just curious.

I don't actually understand how any of these are weird? They all seem to make sense for their location?
7:16 except its a rubber tyred train, so, yknow...
dont want to be too annoying but it feels like you dont research the lines at all when you do mistakes like that so..
Just curious, I thought rubber tires trains also have traditional steel wheels, no? Yes, I know that rubber tires trains are way quieter, just asking.
@@jointransitassociation the brown line is a people mover it uses a guide in the middle
on other rubber tyred systems the metal wheels are used very loosely for guidance but in practice only at switches.
The reason ie for Paris line 6 using rubber tyred trains was so that there was no more screeching on elevated sections of track
the thumbnail line looks like some random squiggle

Wow this looks so cool but it just sounds kinda boring all I hear is blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
I’m sorry bro
