    This video was filmed in November 2022. Places shown in the video were not affected by the Turkey-Syria earthquake.
    I would like to express my deepest condolences for all the people who lost their lives in the earthquake and my sincere sympathies for all those who have been affected.

    Tebrik ederim. Gerçekten tüm detayları içeren çok etkileyici bir seyahat videosu hazırlamışsınız. Teşekkürler🤩👍👍 Demiryolu seyahatleri ve tren yolculukları çok keyifli ve eğlencelidir. Türkiye coğrafyası da demiryolu seyahatleri için çok uygun, fakat ülkede demiryolu hizmetleri henüz istenen düzeyde değil. Özellikle 10 yıl kadar önce hizmete giren Yüksek Hızlı Tren (YHT) yüzünden konvansiyonel hatlardaki seferler sınırlandırıldı. Örneğin daha önce Türkiye'nin hemen her yerine İstanbul'daki Sirkeci ve Haydarpaşa Garlarından tren seferleri yapılıyordu. Oysa bugün İstanbul'da artık bir gar bile yok. Haydarpaşa Garı kapatıldı. Sirkeci Garı ise sadece şehir içinde sefer yapan trenler için kullanılıyor. Şehrin Avrupa tarafında Halkalı İstasyonu, Asya tarafında ise Söğütlüçeşme İstasyonu yıllardır ana gar olarak hizmet veriyor. Oysa bunlar gar değil, sadece şehir içindeki trenler seferleri için tasarlanmış olan küçük ve basit istasyonlar. Bu iki istasyondan da ülkenin sadece birkaç bölgesine tren var. Yani İstanbul'dan artık ülkenin her yerine trenle gitmek mümkün değil. Dünyanın en önemli kentlerinden biri olan İstanbul'da modern ve büyük bir gar yok maalesef. Bu durum İstanbul gibi devasa bir şehir için büyük eksiklik. Trenlerimiz ise fena değil aslında ama yemekli vagonlarda sadece atıştırmalık olması saçmalık. Oysa 10-15 yıl kadar önce bütün trenlerin yemekli vagonlarında çok çeşitli yemekler ve alkollü içecekler de vardı. Türkiye'nin demiryolu ulaşımı ve bu alandaki hizmeti mutlaka geliştirilmeli. Dünyanın her yerinde tren yolculukları giderek daha çok ilgi çekiyor. Türkiye de bunu dikkate alarak demiryolu ulaşımını geliştirmek ve daha iyi duruma getirmek zorunda. Size iyi yolculaklar diliyorum. Paylaşım için tekrar teşekkürler. 👍👍🖐👋👋🚂🚆

    Hi Rory 👋, this is an amazing presentation but sobering when considering the çurrent earthquake situation and my prayers go out to all those impacted by the events. I am surprised to see a mini fridge on this train and I think it is something that could be added to our long-distance trains in Australia. The cabin looked quite comfortable and I am wondering if the windows could be opened to allow fresh air. I am very sure that the squat toilet would leave me literally in the shit if I tried such a manoeuvre. 🤣. What an adventure this was, and I definitely can't wait for your next journey into the unknown.

    Hi Rory.
    Firstly I want to say, that like many ( if not all) of your followers, I wish to add my sympathy to the peoples of both Syria and Türkiye.
    Mother Nature can be very cruel at times 😥
    But thankyou for showing a very beautiful Türkiye. I was very impressed at the spaciousness of the twin cabin in the sleeping carriage.
    I dunno about the squat toilet though, but I respect that in many parts of the world this is normal, and they think a Western style toilet is a bit strange.
    Yes , a shower would be a good addition to the train, but in the scheme of things, more toilets are probably more useful.

    • @RoryDing
      @RoryDing  Год назад +1

      Considering there’s only 20 people in the sleeping car I reckon one toilet would suffice 😂

I guess once the high speed line is completed there will no longer be any need for a sleeper service. Such a tragic time for Turkey and Syria right now. Our sympathies and prayers are with the so many people affected by this disaster.

    I always enjoy your travel videos. It feels like you are sitting next to me, kindly explaining where I am on my trip and what would be best to do next. Of course, I can't verify it, but your confidence and skill at pronouncing words in Turkish is impressive! As I'm sure you know, the experience is better if you learn at least some of the language of the place you are staying. It really makes a difference with the local people you encounter. Lol, the only time that didn't work for me was in Hong Kong, but I'm sure I was butchering Cantonese trying to order food. I still tried!

    Thank you for this video. I love watching travel vids. One thing I must say however, the letter 'h' is pronounced 'aitch' and not 'haitch'. It is the only letter in the English alphabet that is featured in the dictionary as a whole word and it comes under A and not H. Please forgive me if I might sound rude about this but I am trained as an ESOL teacher (English for Speakers of Other Languages) so I always like to make corrections where necesary. Thanks again for the travel info!
