There are countless train videos out there, but their entertainment value and production quality range from 0 to 80. Even though shaky videos—where someone holds their phone up to the wind and all you hear is the roar of the wind—are almost extinct, other enthusiasts manage to layer cheesy music over the sounds of the train. You’d rather hear that noise from a steam locomotive.

Here we have a video that showcases first-class drone footage and limits itself to providing text-based explanations of what’s happening while using only the original audio.

Il existe d’innombrables vidéos de trains, mais leur intérêt et leur qualité de réalisation varient énormément. Même si les vidéos tremblotantes — où quelqu’un tient son téléphone face au vent et où l’on n’entend que le rugissement du vent — ont presque disparu, d’autres passionnés parviennent à superposer une musique kitsch aux bruits du train. On préférerait entendre le bruit d’une locomotive à vapeur.

Voici une vidéo qui présente des images de drone de grande qualité et se contente de fournir des explications textuelles de ce qui se passe tout en utilisant uniquement l’audio original.

The three hand samples of the gauge 1 DB class 151 from Märklin made a very good impression.

It takes some time for a gauge 1 model to be designed and developed ready for production. It is rare to have early access to a new model. Exclusive pictures of the Big Boy when he could already walk.

The railroad world is a unique collection of technologies that never ceases to fascinate. For example, the transfer of coal cargo onto a ship.

What have we done without the Internet? If you're still bored, I have something for you.

In the obscure world of military model making there are sometimes useful accessories for civilian purposes. Besides the traditional 1:35 scale, there are also models in 1:32 scale, matching the 1-gauge.

American railway models are admired worldwide for their independent technology.
