    Your day is busy, and I know I like seeing parts of your day. Today was different, and we went on a track that was new to us. I enjoyed the short drive. I think it took longer to prepare and hook up than it did anything. lol!!! Glad they give you something to do, and make it as different as possible. Have a wonderful weekend!!!

    Interesting video... I did a lot of work like this on freight trains at the beginning of my railway career (1978) as a driver's assistant... on my way to becoming a train driver in UK, retiring nearly two years ago after more than 40 years' service, 35 of which was driving passenger trains... I don't really miss my old job, which changed beyond recognition from when I started... the novelty kind of wore off in the end... retirement is the best job I've ever had, and I thoroughly recommend it...

    Really nice video, even though the modern locomotives are quieter, there is a special charm about the sounds from the older ones. Thank you for sharing this unique coverage, something different compared to normal. I like the way you switch cabs with the camera in your hand. Also, at the harbour I noticed that you just left the train there, would another shunting locomotive take it further to where those other trains are?

  • @njcurmudgeon

    This was a very interesting video. I have two questions. One has to do with the yellow boxes and hoses at the end of the yard when you first hitched up to the consist. Am I correct in presuming these are air compressors to maintain the air brakes on the parked cars? The other is if you are doing all your own coupling/uncoupling, setting handbrakes, etc.? I'm in the U.S. and it seems more common here for there to be a two-man crew - the engineer (driver) responsible for moving the train and running the locomotive and a conductor (what I think is called a "guard" in other countries). The conductor is responsible for "on the ground" jobs, like coupling/uncoupling, setting handbrakes, lining manual switches, etc. Is it different in Switzerland? Or does it depend on the trip? Okay, one more question...what are the three beeps that can be heard? I heard that in a passenger train video too. Many thanks!

    • @RailwayEmotions
      @RailwayEmotions  3 года назад

      They can be used to fill, empty and therefore check the brakes. Sometimes we couple ourselves, sometimes there is staff to do it for us. There is never a two man crew, we're always alone on the locomotive, except for new drivers in training. The beeps are explained here: ruclips.net/video/UYMCoyPFnWU/видео.html

    Thanks for showing, now about the line at the other end of Basel yard to the river side industries? A query, the electric power supply to the locomotive is a single phase AC. However AC electric is generated in 3 phases on a national grid basis. Does the yard at Basel use all three phases distributed as single (but differing) phases in the various yards that make up the complex. A insulated or dead zone may indicate a change to a different phase. Would be require to balance the electrical load on the supply system.

    • @RailwayEmotions
      @RailwayEmotions  4 года назад

      On a national grid basis, yes. But our electric power comes from (hydro) power plants that are there only for the railway. It is a independent network, however it can supply the national grid with electricity and vice versa, if that would be necessary.

    • @RailwayEmotions
      @RailwayEmotions  4 года назад +3

      The brakes are pre-checked, this hose allows to control them like a locomotive does. They are then kept at pressure and secured until the locomotive arrives and takes the wagons. This way, it is no longer necessary to check all the brakes after coupling, but only the first one. If that one reacts to the controls of the locomotive, all others do, too.

      @@RailwayEmotions But if they are kept at pressure, does that mean that the brakes are off while parked? I thought airbrakes would keep air in the cylinders to release the brakes, and to apply the brakes you just release all the air.

    • @RailwayEmotions
      @RailwayEmotions  4 года назад +5

      ​@@112Haribo What you say is correct. The system is filled to 5 bars (released), checked and afterwards set to 4 bars. Therefore the system is full, but the brakes are still applied. The locomotive only needs to build up that one bar to release the brakes. It takes noticeably less time and energy than filling the whole system up from 0 again. That is what I meant with kept at pressure.

      While I fully understand the no cell phone rule, I can't really think of proper reasons against cabrides. Of course, it is always up to the companies to set their rules and we are lucky that our employers let us film all the rides you can see here. We use a fixed camera and simply let it roll, it does not distract and does not interfere with safety, nor does it do anything else potentially dangerous.

Question: On your passenger train cab view videos, are you allowed, by regulations, to show the train before you board? If you also showed us a few people boarding and getting off the train, if the privacy laws permit, then we would feel like we are even more part of the journey. Just a thought! Thanks again.

      Some videos show the train before departure, but we have tight schedules. So train and safety is always first, much later comes cabrides (which includes mounting the camera, cleaning the windscreen etc.) and if then there's still time left, an outside shot follows. Which is rarely the case.

    Seems a bit crappy ergonomically compared with more modern electric locos, especially when it comes to noise, but clearly the power delivery and performance are very much 1st rate. Clearly the design must've been very, very good, especially for its time.
