- A train rail clip will roll: do you know which city the system is in? How many correct did you get out of 25?
-
Please comment if you have opinions or facts to share about the video or transit in general! Its a learning process for all of us and I enjoy being educated on what in the end we all love: transportation
7:38 the fastest train I have ever seen
is this supposed to be a joke?
@@yanirarodriguezportez152 yeah
16, kinda proud of that. I only got Riga because I have a Latvian friend and I recognise that rolling stock from a photo he sent me. That was a super tricky one
Chi cerca la figa parte per Riga!
Tricky indeed, the colours suggested Ukraine. Miss these old RVR trainsets with sliding windows. Sir, can we disinvent air conditioning?
same lmao
The 6 easy ones:- Seattle, Toronto, Wellington, Dublin, Philadelphia, Auckland.
The hard ones?:- Everything else.
Love these quizzes- please keep them coming (subject to travel restrictions, social distancing, etc. etc.)
my easiest were Hamburg, Milan, Hong Kong, Philadelphia, Yangon, Zürich.
I only make them based on places that I have travelled to. But definitely will make more as I get a chance to travel more
6:47 KTM Komuter, Greater Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
10:00 Airport Rail Link, Bangkok Metropolitan Region, Thailand
Well, I did get nine, should have been closer to 15 or so. But the Absolute Best has to be the Sound coming from that heavy Soviet-era stuff in Riga Latvia. Real traction sounds--yaay!
Yey the Hamburger S bahn
but this one has no pantograph :(
@@blista2 well they dont need one
Dear friend. I have watched your videos. I am very happy and emotional while watching the video. good and interesting short films. I admire you so much.
I only got Bangkok - Thailand right, I did spot those in Zurich and Hamburg to be Swiss and German trains respectively tho, because the abbreviations SBB, CFF, FFS and DB are pretty easily spottable
Perfect video.. I get 18, as a 40 year rail traveller. Thanks....
1. Seattle
2. unknown, then maybe Sri Lanka (Yangon)
3. Buenos Aires
4. Istanbul
5. Toronto
6. Unknown (Wellington)
7. Moscow (Riga)
8. Dublin
9. Tokyo (Kyoto)
10. Perth
11. Unknown (San Jose)
12. Philadelphia, then Denver
13. Something in Switzerland (Zurich)
14. Hong Kong
15. San Diego
16. Unknown
17. Salt Lake City
18. Unknown, possibly DROC (Havana)
19. Something in India, possibly Mumbai (Colombo)
20. Philadelphia
21. Brisbane (Auckland)
22. Unknown (Zagreb)
23. Frankfurt (Hamburg)
24. Bangkok
25. Unknown (Milan)
Hamburg, Gernany is correct answer in the video. S-Bahn trains in other Germany cities is slightly different than in Hamburg.
4:19 that train is same to class 3500 of FEVE (including the colours) (Spain)!
@@edu9078 a... Y luego se quejan los que usan FEVE Asturias, FEVE Bilbao, ETC... Que hay pocos trenes XD
Awesome video loved it
Please make more like this
"think you know the train systems of the world?"
no but I'm enjoying this video anyways
Easily recognized the Desiro in Bangkok they are virtually identical to East Midlands Railways Class 360 units in Great Britain.
Yangon, Burma, and Istanbul, TR, are state goverment railways.
Same with the Swiss and the Latvian railways shown here
Try and slot in the Glasgow Subway, or the underground sections of Mersey Rail in Liverpool/Birkenhead or the underground sections of the Newcastle Metro in your next video. I bet there are plenty of people in the UK, let alone abroad, that don't even know these exist!
I strongly agree with Trevor! In particular most British people do not know that Liverpool has a quite extensive suburban rail system!
Yes, and (hopefully, providing that Drakeford and his cronies in the Welsh government don't screw it up) the South Wales Metro in a few years. I've already used the Glasgow Subway and Merseyrail but alas, my only use of the Newcastle to South Shields line was in pre-Metro days.
The front end of the one in the thumbnail (which I find is Bangkok) looks just like a former Greater Anglia Class 360 Siemens Desiro, though it sounds quite different
Because they are related to the Class 360s, being in the Siemens Desiro family
Several commuter lines in Europe are very much run by nationalized railways, with regional input. In the US they're run by transit agencies or concessioned to contract operators or the host railroad.

I guess 13/25, I've never been to America or New Zealand so it's ok...
Just 8 lol. Got most of the American/Canadian ones, Buenos Aires, Havana, and Frankfurt.
Only got three (Hamburg, Dublin & Kyoto), though I could only tell from the countries rather than the city they exclusively run.
The Zagreb Commuter Rail is hard to find out because of the graffiti.
There are a lot of HZ express car in the background but first I tought of Belgrade also.
Graffiti is a disease in southern Europe. Croatia, Serbia, Greece, Spain, Portugal... you can barely find clean trains anymore, what a sad world we live in :(
@@osasunaitor graffiti is the only thing lively about west and central europe
@@user-rs2gv4vk1g what a dumb, dumb thing to say. You won't think the same when your train has the windows completely covered in paint and you can't even look outside during the whole trip.
Street art and murals are nice, but these vandal graffiti tags are just pure and absolute shit.
@@osasunaitor did you ever see a graffiti tag written "shut the fuck up"
got most right. Havana didn't know at all and Costa Rica was a stretch. Riga I suspected wasn't Russia because not Cyrillic but not many clues. Kyoto looked like several Japanese cities even though I've been there a lot. Have been on about half of these.
Great idea for a video
Wow, Sounder has the same cabs as GO Transit now!
I got Seattle, Dublin, San Diego, Philadelphia, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Zurich, Toronto, Istanbul, Buenos Aires, Denver, and Salt Lake City. There were several where I had the right country but the wrong city, and those were Kyoto (thought it was Osaka), Perth (thought it was Melbourne), and Hamburg (thought it was Berlin).
Berlin S-Bahn has red-yellow livery.
2:22 Awarua St station, Johnsonville Line, Wellington, NZ.
I know because I used that station for two years. :P And that line for much longer. Those are the newer Matangi EMUs that replaced the English Electric EMUs about a decade ago. The EE units were a design from the 1930s.
12, felt good!
Here's my guesses:
1. Sounder Commuter Rail; Seattle, USA (correct)
2. Train looks Japanese but it clearly isn't Japan. I guess Phillipines. (incorrect)
3. Train name says it all; Buenos Aries, Argentina (correct)
4. Think I saw this in one of your recent videos. Instanbul, Turkey (correct)
5. GO Transit; Toronto, Canada (correct)
6. Metlink; Wellington, New Zealand (correct)
7. Looks ex-Soviet. I guess Moscow, Russia (incorrect)
8. Dublin Area Rapid Transit; Dublin, Ireland (correct)
9. Definitely Japanese but I wouldn't know where. (pass)
10. Transperth; Perth Australia. To be more precise this was filmed at the former Moore Street level crossing outside McIver station. (correct)
11. Looks like it's SE Asia somewhere but I wouldn't know where. Phillipines? (incorrect)
12. RTD Commuter Rail; Denver USA (correct)
13. Definitely European, possibly Denmark? (incorrect)
14. MTR; Hong Kong, China (correct)
15. The Coaster; San Diego, USA (correct)
16. I've seen a pic of this train before. Don't know the name of the railway but I think it's in Malaysia? (correct)
17. UTA Frontrunner; Salt Lake City, USA (correct)
18. Going to guess eastern Europe. Albania? (incorrect)
19. Colombo, Sri Lanka (correct)
20. How could I not know this; one of my favourite railways. SEPTA Commuter Rail; Philadelphia USA. (correct)
21. Auckland Transport; Auckland, New Zealand (correct)
22. Definitely Europe with that level of graffiti but wouldn't know where. Random guess; Bosnia (incorrect)
23. It's a Deuche Bahn train but it doesn't look like Berlin. I don't know my German cities so I'll pass (pass)
24. Bangkok, Thailand (correct)
25. European but wouldn't know where. Random guess; Spain (incorrect)
Overall 16/25; not bad.
The strange language on the platform of the Dublin DART might have thrown people.It's Irish and sometimes called Irish Gaelic to avoid confusion with the very similar Scotts and Manx variety.All government signage is in both languages in Ireland although it's only spoken as a first language by a small percentage of the population.
not sure about Manx, but no one in there right minds would write anything in Scotts (Gaelic) on the trains anywhere in Scotland.. the last branch line where it might have made sense closed as of 2009.
today no area where Scottish-Gaelic is prevalently to be found spoken have a local rail network... Scots, maybe, will be written in some places, and certainly used on the announcements, but that's a totally different beast...
Welsh, like Irish Gaelic is widely used in its area...
and since a sizable urban populace speaks it, one sees it on the railway the railway....
@@stanislavkostarnov2157 you are incorrect all rail signs in Scotland are in English and Gaelic just as in Wales and Ireland (not sure about the Isle of Man?).The Scottish government is trying to promote Gaelic so it doesn't matter if it's still spoken in an area at the moment.There are now a number of Gaelic medium schools in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
@@kevanhubbard9673 at the time I lived in Edinburgh 12 years ago at least, you only had Gaelic in the Parliament at Holyrood, and one or two places in official places, Museums or at the airport... even the Bus station or the Students Union already had no Gaelic anywhere... maybe today it became a policy, I love seeing Gaelic, but, in the past you had to go to the Isle for that... never saw or heard any Gaelic on the Fife Loop, Lothian Buses or the commuter to North Berwick (which were the lines I took most often)
traveled to see my home last just after Brexit...
did not notice much of a difference in that respect. maybe something new, if so, good on them! the more languages there are, the better.
@@stanislavkostarnov2157 it changed a few years ago and all rail signs are in Gaelic.I don't know about airports since I've never flown to Scotland.Cal Mac ferries also have Gaelic but maybe they always did as they operate in the Gaeltacht anyhow?
@@kevanhubbard9673 the Ferries always had Gaelic, the railways never did...
Thanks for including a clip of a GO Train through Burlington, Ontario! It's my hometown! Thanks Timosha! I also got them all right!
Well the thumbnail is bankoks airport express so I know that one and by express I mean the airport link it's kind off and express
Airport Rail Link*
It is operated by State Railway of Thailand
Good morning from Thailand btw
This looks oddly like the British rail class 185, but just a foreign electric version.anyone agree?
@@paulmoon7634 actually that is the british rail class 360
I could get most of the regions/countries correct but not the specific cities; so I don’t know what counts as being correct.
>
1. Western US (yep, Seattle)
2. SE Asia, probably Burma since it’s quite run down (yep)
3. Buenos Aires (Argentine sign on the front)
4. Istanbul (words on the platform are Turkish)
5. Toronto (Go Transit sign)
6. Wellington NZ (recognise the trains)
7. Somewhere Eastern European (I recognise the “Electrishka” trains)
8. Dublin (that’s a DART train, rolling stock gave it away)
9. Osaka Region (Kansai), the rolling stock is exclusive to that region (yep)
10. Perth (rolling stock is easily recognisable)
11. Somewhere in Latin America?Signs are in Spanish (Oh not so)
12. Somewhere in the Central or Eastern US (rolling stock styling choices)
13. Zurich (SBB sign and type of trains, namely S-Bahn)
14. Hong Kong (that MTR logo is too hard to miss)
15. Somewhere in the Western US or Canada (double deckers loco hauled trains)
16. Kuala Lumpur (Batu Caves is a Terminus)
17. Somewhere in the Western US for the same reason as 15 (oh ok not really)
18. No Idea (hmm it’s Cuba)
19. From the Indian Subcontinent? (Oh I guess so then)
20. Philadelphia (yep, SEPTA logo)
21. Oceania? (Ah bingo)
22. Somewhere in Eastern Europe? (Right yeah)
23. Hamburg (DB livery and third rail)
24. Bangkok (Class 360 lookalike and SE Asian architecture)
25. Somewhere in Europe?? (Oh yep)
The one I know the best, Is the Cleveland Rapid Transit trains that go from the Cleveland Airport to a station under the Terminal Tower and the way out on the east side. to the Windermere station.
22/25 :)
i missed yangon, kyoto, and kuala lumpur
I like the Istanbul Marmaray Railway
I've guessed right: Zurich, San Diego, Salt Lake City, Hamburg and Milan
I got 1, 5, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, and 25.
Lovely
Historic trams included
The Hawker Siddley cars, after 25 years of manufacturing, have stooped being made.
Colombo is the best as people can get out before train stops.
15/25, not bad. I'm actually proud I managed to guess some really obscure ones like Havana. And there are definitely ones that I should have got. Like I guess Belgrade instead of Zagreb and Vilnius instead of Riga lol
7, could you please make the same video but with systems you will know to make me feel smarter
I managed a mere 5, and consider that a good score. Got close with a couple more - wrong country, right continent!
10/25 - Not bad at all if I do say so myself, given commuter rail isn't really something I focus on with my public transportation interests.
(Seattle, Toronto, Riga, Dublin, *Osaka* (The answer listed was Kyoto, but the line also serves Osaka so I'll count it), Perth, Zurich, San Diego, Kuala Lumpur and Auckland were my correct guesses.
Love from Thailand
Huge locomotive = USA.
Zurich and Hamburg were too easy.
Класс!!! Какое разнообразие локомативов ,по всему миру.👍👍👍
I only got 10 out of 25! Interestingly I thought that the train at 10:00 was in the UK, since some services, especially on third rail ones uses this type of train, Siemens Desiro (I don't know the BR Class)! While the train at the 3:52 I didn't knew which type was this train (looked pretty much like a combination between the Adtranz/CAF EMU of the Tung Chung and Airport Express lines of the Hong Kong MTR and the Bombardier Movia BM2/BM21 trains of the Bucharest Metro in Romania, since neither HK MTR, nor the Bucharest Metro uses level crossings)!
I've had a lot of them, all North American and Canadian lines, all Asian and a lot of Europeans (not Latvia or Zagreb).I don't found all australian and mid-america train. But the worst is Cuba, I didn't know that the trains still existed, I thought they were scrapped.
I got them all somehow
5:55 Rest in peace big friend
i got only 12
thank you
Beautiful video! Greetings 🙂🖐️
6:47 My city
I knew all the North American systems
North America has no "systems".
18/25 nice challenge.
14/25! Great video!!
I messed up Riga,Zagreb and Wellington otherwise it Was a smooth ride for me :)
Wellington is easy, Matangi are very different from AT stock and the film of AT cars looked terrible going round that tight curve. Johnsonville line always looks nice and countrified.
I didn't do well - I only got Zurich, Dublin, Hamburg and Hong Kong which are all places I know. In a few of the others I got the right country but the wrong city. Wonderful sound at 2:40
How many of the 25 did you identify correctly? 4. (Seattle, Dublin, Zürich, Milan.)
Was this easy? No.
What trains proved difficult? The other 21.
11/25 - I took a lucky guess on a few, but overall I didn’t do too bad, for my standards at least!
12/25m although I have ridden on perhaps 23 of them, some in an earlier era. My triumph: Costa Rica. Some went too fast to think.
5:26 it is a map from Call of duty bo2 😂😂😂
i got 5 trains right, instanbul, dublin, perth, zurich and hamburg. and got by 10 of them the right country but the wrong place
#1 somewhere in Canada will be my guess, probably near to Vancouver... Ok, it was USA, saw the Amtrak shed there...
(funnily same coast/region, so I did get it quite OK, did not think America had anything this modern though....)
#2 the train is a 1970s Japanese-Rail original "one-Man" (built on License from BMW), but looks like maybe Myanmar?
possibly Taiwan, I know a lot of those do run there, but the system looks waay to mixed to be Taiwan, the people also look more Indian/Indo-Chinese... could be Sri-Lanka too
(ok, my first hunch was right, based on the people more than the train, but also, the fact everything was in English)
#3 its written its Argentina on the train, so Buenos Aires is the only city I actually know in that region.
#4 thought it was maybe Malaysia or the Philippines... but apparently it is Turkey (would not have guessed)
#5 Pretty sure its in the Netherlands, though, maybe Belgium... that part of the world for sure
(no it is not, it's Canada... weird, did not think of that)
#6 was thinking either Germany or some more exotic part of Britain... but no
(would again have not thought New Zealand, though, it does make sense)
#7can see its Riga by the Cyrillic R, otherwise, a colorful fully modernized Electrichka type train... which is common in the Baltic states..
#8 Ireland, the Dublin rail system... would have said it's the Tyne metro if not for the double language on the destination, one looks clearly written in Irish-Gaelic
#9 pretty sure it's a Nagoya (Kinki-sei) model of suburban train
(Ok, it's filmed in Kyoto, but I would still say it is a train of the Nagoya Metro type, just one of the extended lines along lake Biwa & reaching Kyoto... the models for the Kyoto and Osaka systems themselves (Keihan Commuter System, Kintetsu suburban system and Kyoto Metro) are either more retro or Ultra-modern, depending on the series... they also use primary colors by the most)
#10 somewhere in America, a regional system, maybe somewhere like NewJersey, or maybe Chicago though I thought that one is all using older Chrysler trains
(Ok, I did think about Sydney, but figured that since we already had New-Zealand, you would not do two in that region, did not know Perth was so urban, thought of it as an older two-three floor city)
#11 pretty sure that's San Paulo Brazil, though also may be Cape town South Africa
(Ok, never knew Costa-Rica even had a railway, let alone a relatively modern one)
#12 Septa Blue line Philadelphia...
(Ok, Denver, I thought Denver was all light rail for commuter stuff...)
#13 Belgium, probably in Flanders.
(wait, that's Switzerland! again, thought they had light rail there)
#14 Hong Kong Commuter line
#15 California somewhere, probably part of the Silicon Valley corridor
(OK, San-Diego, close enough)
#16 was thinking Azerbaijan or Kazakhstan,
(but, apparently Malaysia)
#17 South-Midwest Rockies somewhere... Phoenix? Albuquerque? Nevada? would have said Denver but we had that...
(Salt Lake City... Ok, part of that region, makes sense...)
#18 Brazil or somewhere in the middle of Sub-Saharan Africa... somewhere with a large Portuguese influence
(Ok, Cuba also has that same style we get in Northern Brazil... also many buildings built like that, and much of a similar color choice)
#19 Sri-Lanka main line railway... the Colombo circuit...
#20 Ok, now here is red line Septa, blue and red with an S
#21 probably Estonia, near Tallinn
(Ok no, its New-Zealand again)
# 22 maybe Paris or Rome... wait, that's a soviet style train back there..! Minsk, no too dirty, not Ukraine, Moldova?
(OK, Zagreb, did not guess but makes sense)
# 23 Berlin or Austria maybe?
(Ok, Hamburg, again close enough in spirit)
#24 somewhere in Taiwan? maybe Korea?
(OK... Thailand is also in that Ballpark of railways)
#25 likely somewhere like Helsinki or maybe Macedonia?
(not even close)
Denver is my favorite as a trick question since they use the same trains as Philly. You have to look at the colors on the train to distinguish them.
@@timosha21 I did, but it looked like a blue-line septa, Blue Red whitish on a sliver/gray background... the front not having the line is the main difference though.
@@timosha21 in the past, some of the Oedo (Tokyo municipal subway circle -line) trains would have worked well too... they used the same trains (with a slight difference in color) as Central line on the Tube...
Excelent!! Saludos
See guys? Even some of the most undeveloped countries in the world have electrified their rail system.
5:42 How would you know it‘s only Zürich, if you only show Stadler KISS from SBB?
That's Zurich Stadelhofen, quite distinctive
because the place is the Zürich-Stadelhof station.
@@blista2 Wow I think you have to much time to know about one station somewhere in Zürich
Or you live in Zurich
I got 16, some were pretty lucky though.
The one in Toronto is GO-Transit, and the one in Dublin called DART I should well know since I named it.
Great job! Go to Belfast and call it BART (no that's gone) or maybe BETA (Belfast and Environs Transit Authority)
10:00 is the Bangkok airport rail link
4:19 I was thoroughly confused by this one: the trainset, the livery colours and even the logo are identical to the Series 2400 used by FEVE (narrow gauge railways) in spain. This unit even keeps its original numbering 2454!
Turns out they sold a bunch of these trains to Costa Rica 10 years ago.
At least our Costarican friends can keep them clean and graffiti-free, a very rare sight in spain nowadays
didn't know 4
I got 12 which I'm happy with lol
I got 10
I got 17
Washington state
YAY RTD!!!!
6:50... must... resist... making... Star Wars Galaxy's Edge joke...
I got 11. The Asian ones were especially hard for me
Super quiet Diesel Electric, Diesel engine is so quiet the traction motors can be heard 7:08
coaster and sounder were easy
Buenos Aires paaaaa
1ez sound transit
11
Only got Dublin and HK right unless getting its country would count.
I would prefer the place's name before the visual of the train.
That defeats the whole purpose of the video :p
0:51元JR東海のキハ40
一瞬「えぇ！？これ日本なの！？」っと思ったらミャンマーだったww
1:02 I THOUGHT THAT WAS INDIA
No Indian Railway Included.
You should show the details first then the clip...
Only got 5 right
not a single one from the UK!?
septa one was easy
The train Said to be from Argentina for SURE is not from Argentina.
I missed:
Myanmar
Wellington, NZ
Latvia
Perth
Sri Lanka(bummed I missed this ive riden trains there. Never that one tho!)
Auckland, NZ
Thailand(WTF is that Cityline!? Ive been on BTS and Metro)
Milan
City Line is Airport Rail Link from Suvarnabhumi to Phaya Thai. It is also the fastest train in Thailand(125km/h)
