It warms my heart to see old trains saved from the scrap piles and kept in limited service!
Jolie vidéo. Et merci à toutes les associations ferroviaires qui à travers la France restaurent et conservent le patrimoine du chemin de fer de notre pays. Et, j'invite chacun à faire une petite visite à la Cité du Train de Mulhouse.
This is a real treat. What a great train set for it’s day. Good to see it still running as a tour train. Thank you.
Did i spot an exposed rotating vertical shaft in the engineer's cabin? (when you spoke about the clutch) ... Seems like the perfect place to get a trouser leg's cloth caught up in a spinning shaft and have some skin sheared off your shin!
Yes, it's an auxiliary shaft driving the Flaman speed indicator and recorder, the large box in front of the driver with a rotating crank on its left side
I was watching yesterday the movie "Le Corniaud" and I spotted the Picasso in one scene where de Funès is stopped at a railway crossing. Magnificent train!
This was amazing! What a gorgeous little workhorse train. Love the look
Fantastic; one of your best videos, what a privilege to see an iconic railcar preserved so well. Thank you!
enjoy the video, i enjoy travelling around europe on trains, on my 60 birthday, travelled to germany, switzerland,austria, back to france via praque, on eurostar from paris to london,
It's amazing that you can see the inside of V12. The vehicle is also nice. The difference from Japan is interesting.
Now, that's what I call a 'real train'. Let's re-open all the rural lines in France and populate them with Picasso's. Thanks for this super video.
What a beautiful piece of engineering that train is. I love the sideways-facing seat in the cab, too! I could just imagine driving that all day and never getting bored of it.
Wow, never seen such a video on the Picasso!!
Outstanding video. Very well maintained train!!! Beautiful scenery! Glad you saw the engine and Benjamin supervised operation of the rain.
Thank you Thibault for posting this journey😀😀💚💚
Every french aged over 50 took this iconic train !! I did many times between La Ciotat (south of France) and Toulon- Hyères Les Palmiers (south of France) during the 70's i was a child .....
It's great to see videos of such special trains.
Simply Fantastic...Loved the whole video esp the view from the driver's cabin. That horn truly sounded like a bus/truck horn and not a train's.
In europe almost ALL the trains have that horn
this warms my heart as it reminds me of swedens dearest and old train that goes under the model name YP, i love them as they're so tiny and vintage :)
Love those SNCF toilets, brings back memories of crossing France by rail in the 1960's.
What a delightful change from all these modern units from Bombardier, Siemens etc that all look the same wherever you are
This is fantastic, I've only seen this in pictures and never before seen it in video! Thank you for this special treat.
You should ride the old "Arlecchino" train in Italy ( ETR 252). It's been completely restored and it's a real beauty.
What fun. Thanks for sharing this well care for beauty.
Loved it!. The red and cream or Blood and Cream as the same 1950’s British Rail carriages sported here, reminded me of the French manufactured model Hornby-Acho diesel multiple of the same period. Very nostalgic. 👍🏻🏴 A great video as always. Thank you.
Outstanding...a wonderful trip into the more peaceful past. Wonderful train, lots of local color. One of your best ever videos in my opinion and I have seen many of them.
Charmant et nostalgique! I just need a bottle of Orangina and some Gauloises now and I'm transported!
I liked this video so much.
Nice to see old trains.
Old school choo choo.... Thanks for taking viewers back a few years. Pleasant French countryside, laid back vibe!
What a great trip - I enjoyed that as much as some of your more exotic ones.
Add an AC and these would be a godsend for rural communities even today.
Amazing video, thanks for sharing this with us! Also great compliments for the quality of your videos, it is truly outstanding!
Ca fait des mois que je suis abonné à ta chaine, et je viens seulement de me rendre compte que tu es français... :D
Et en plus, tu viens juste de faire un report sur un train touristique juste à côté de chez moi. J'habite juste à côté d'Etaples et j'y ai pris le TER HDF qu'on voit sur ta vidéo un nombre incalculable de fois... Le monde est petit quand même !
Il faudra que je l'essaie à l'occasion, ça a l'air d'être une chouette balade pour découvrir les environs.
Bonne continuation à toi l'ami :)
What a simple, useful rail vehicle. So nostalgic. I half expected to see Mr. Hulot step off of it.
Again a nice Video. The engineer of These cars could Just "feel" many of such necessary things Like vehicles, people, animals ... crossing when they arrived at the crossings ... - Just top save am second cockpit ....
Fantastic, my favourite railcar. I saw a static Picasso at the Vallee de L'Aa in 2017 (XBD 3853) and one at the Cite Du Train at Mulhouse. I so want to travel on one of these, and didn't know that the Vallee de L'Aa had one working. Next time in France I will try and get on board. Thanks for posting
Superb! Please go on with videos on vintage passenger trains!
Fascinating - many thanks for this. Unlikely, given Covid, that we'll ever make it back to Europe
What an interesting excursion. Thanks for the ride!
Magnificent!
What a great video ,wonderful to see this train still running
Such a beautifully restored railcar and so unusual compared to modern DMUs 👍
Probably your best video!
What a cool trip back in time! Thanks for sharing that with us!
Beautiful train 💯👌And France is so beautiful 😍 Love this country and people 🤗🇨🇵
wow ,so special train.
What a great unique trip and unique train. The unique moment is When the train running long hood (cab driver on backside).
Every country has one ore more "iconic" engine or railcar.
Very beatiful the shot into the driving cab and the engines.
Fantastic sound from that diesel engine. Beautifully restored.
How beautiful ❤️Thanks for the ride 😎🚂
Wow! Super video! Fascinating and unique, from beginning to end. Thank you.
Amazing video, a true ride back in time!
Well that dude had fun tooting the little French train horn lol
Отличный ролик, заслуженный лайк
i want to see more vintage :D loved it :)
What a beautiful looking railcar, better than anywhere in britain
Wow, great vid! The French really did Midcentury design so well!
Bom dia simply lindo trem 🚆 piqueno ótimo vídeo
what a funky little train! never seen it before, great video!
Awesome vehicle! And those gears visible @2:44! 🤩
Fun! Thanks for taking us along.
What a marble!
Thank you ..I love these little special excursions
Thats a really unique experience to watch this Video, thanks for that ;)
WOW!
Génial
What an interesting little train! Thanks for sharing your adventure!
That was brilliant. An iconic little train and running through idyllic scenery.
On another topic; it would be wonderful if they could one day restore that boat lift.
This is fabulous video, I love this train, looks and sounds great, a good review fellas
Outstanding video, even for you and your already-high bar. Great look at a true workhorse.
Cute train!
Magnifique !!!
Handsome little railcar, certainly sounds rather nice too.
That is certainly a unique piece of equipment! Very cool!
In my distant youth, I travelled many times aboard such "Autorail" !
So wonderfully French. Imagine travelling in France in the 60s before “mondialisation” ?!?
Such a beautiful train. Great video!!!
Super cute! Thanks for sharing
If you narrated your awesome videos, we wouldn’t have to take our eyes off the marvelous scenery to read the text.
I think it was a train like this I travelled on in about 1965 to get from Paris Gare du Nord to Le Touquet on the non-stop Silver Arrow rail-air service, which ran from Paris to London, with an air-hop across the Channel from Le Touquet to Gatwick.
What a cool little train . Truly unique 👌
Very well engineered train and awesome video. Would have been nice if you had videoed your brother actually changing gears.
This train reminds me of our Class 205 thumper in the UK which came into service in 1957, it also had windows into the engine room but was Diesel-Electric, being a later design and Southern Region (it was basically an existing Southern Region 3rd rail electric train but with a Diesel Generator set added and 3rd rail current collection equipment removed). Being placed into service so early these trains worked amongst Steam locomotives which were very much still in use in the UK (the last steam-hauled service trains on the standard gauge mainline of the British Railways network ran in August 1968).
You can see them here on RUclips - if interested search `Class 205 thumper'.
Also Northern Ireland had their own version - if interested search `Northern Ireland Railways 80 class'.
What a great train ride.
Hi France of the cute 🤗
I'm a tram and I approve this video!!!
Nice
Essentially what the UK's Pacers should have been. And decades earlier, no less.
Well, yes but remember the Conservative government asked BR for a really cheap solution so that's what they got.
SNCF tested various "light" designs, essentially based on buses construction techniques, but was unhappy with that.
They went for a "heavy" railcars, more akin to trains. It was more expensive, required bigger engines, but was more rugged in case of an accident and could haul dedicated passenger cars, or even standard passenger cars in case of need.. It could withstand higher shocks and did not have to be written off if shocked by another train or obstacle at moderate speed, unlike "light" railcars. It was also reparable. It was also designed for a longer lifetime of 30 years.
@@chefchaudard3580 Nice common sense approach.
2:35 * and was also used for trains from Givet to Dinant(🇧🇪)😊
cute train
Nice video
Super video friend 😍 👌 🇮🇳
Amazing videoo
Very cool.
If this train design had launched 10 years later, it probably would have been nicknamed Cousteau, the bulge for the driver cabin reminds me even more of a scientific submarine than Picasso's paintings.
nice video ❤😘
3:43 Is that your girlfriend Thibs? She's enjoying your seat check right there. If she isn't, she looks beaut.
7:03 Wow that horsepower
7:35 Reminds me of single car train of Wales
Wonderful retro train that I would love to hop in.
Great video. You continue to crack me up with your Franglais Thibault. What do you mean by "declivity"?
床上に機械室か、贅沢だな。
Ca file vite pour un Diesel de cet âge !
Now that’s one of most beautiful trains that I have never seen before. Was it built in France or was it built in Japan then transferred to France.
Valid question as Japan has been exporting rolling stock since the 1950s. But these units were built in France by a consortium led by Renault.
Interesting video and train. Strange layout with the engine where the driver would normally sit. Does the driver have signal sighting problems being perched up there, or visibility issues at the "long" end?
What camera did you shoot this video with? I like the smooth motion.
