    The middle coach of the AM80 has different seating because originally AM80 trains were only composed of two coaches. They were designed as fast local trains with strong motors, but were almost never used for this purpose. The exces in power was used in advantage by adding a third coach in between. These are newer, which explains the different seating.

    the belgian first class is mostely about siting with less people by example in rush houre because allot of belgians take the train because its a real cheap transportation service if u only need to get to your work so its fun if u pay extra to sit alone and not in a crowded space :)

    The middle coaches were added to the AM80 between 1992 and 1995. AM80 originally had only 2 coaches.

    Hello, thanks for the video, i'm at school in the SNCB. And your video help me to study the different trains :P
    At 5:16 you say that you're not sur if it's equiped with Air-conditioned; i give you a tip: if you can open the windows: No air-condition.
    If you can't open the windows: air condition equipied !
    i hope this tips will help you.
    have a good day :)

    5:00 this is the part made for bike users. When the breaks were built had they only 2 coaches. That's why the seats are not the same. (the middle coach was added 10 years after the trains were build, which is why the seats are different in the middle coach, which by the way is also the only of the 3 coaches without motor.

    I'm not sure if they're still around but if you ever get the chance to ride a non-refurbished AM80, you should definitely check out the middle couch on these ones. It's all 2nd class but it has a 1st class feeling, pretty much like sitting in your couch at home.

    These are good trains. Not the most modern, but good enough for the short trips we have in this country.

    Niveau bruits étranges etc faut vraaaaaaaaaiment que tu planifie un trajet en classiques (AM62/66) :D surtout qu'ils veulent bientôt les déclasser ;) Ces vieux trains ont un charme de fou (et la première classe est vraiment différente). :D
    Et la prochaine fois admettons si tu veux passer un w-e durant les grandes vacances en Belgique pour faire plusieurs trajets etc et que t'as encore moins de 26 ans, on a des Go Unlimited, cela se met sur une carte "Mobib" (un peu comme un pass Navigo), une photo d'identité + 5 euros et t'as la carte puis pour 15euros supplémentaires tu peux faire tous les voyages que tu veux avec celle-ci.

    La motrice non-modernisée aurait été plus conviviale, je pense. Les rénovées n'ont pas de charme, leur seul point positif, c'est l'espace multifonctionnel pour les vélos, et encore, avant, c'était dans le fourgon, et on n'était pas obligé à rester avec...
    Quelques réponses à tes questions et remarques. Les AM80 break ont commencé comme des motrices à 2 voitures, celle du milieu est plus récente, et non-motorisée, donc moins bruyante,et toujours avec des sièges individuels ald bancs dans le reste du train. Dommage qu'ils les ont remplacés avec la rénovation, les anciens étaient mieux (identiques aux I10, à part le revêtement). Avec la rénovation, ils ont installé de la climatisation... mais que dans les postes de conduite.. Et la gare non-annoncée est Ath.

    Mauvais choix ! Tu aurais dû monter dans la voiture centrale de la non-modernisée, c'est là que sont les meilleurs sièges. Les sièges sont différents car à l'origine en 1980, les AM80 n'avaient que 2 voitures. La voiture centrale a été ajoutée au début des années 90. Sinon pour la sonnerie de fermeture, le buzzer doit être court-circuité, ce bruit n'est pas normal. Les M7 auront la même sonnerie que la plupart des trains européens par ailleurs.
