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.

Back in 2018, I reported on a 750 mm museum railway that I discovered by chance while taking a detour. A lot has happened since then. In two weeks, there will be interesting events featuring a steam train.

Unfortunately, the model railroad industry largely ignores automobiles on tracks, even though they have been used everywhere for track inspection and maintenance for well over 100 years. 99 years ago, a film shows how, for lack of roads, a PR tour kept switching to tracks.

Die Elektrifizierung der Höllentalbahn von Freiburg im Breisgau bis Neustadt und Seebrugg erfolgte zunächst mit einer Oberleitungsspannung von 20 Kilovolt. Ein Dokumentarfilm.

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

There is an interesting film about the DB class 181² in H0 at Märklin-TV.

The Müngsten Bridge, opened in 1897, is 107 meters high and crosses the Wupper near Solingen with two tracks in a spectacular way. A remarkably good film about Germany's highest railroad bridge is available at public service TV WDR.

Watch trains live and with sound and immerse yourself in faraway landscapes: a few tips.

The control gear of Märklin's S 2/6 and the movement of the fireman are interesting to watch in the video.

Dingler hat eine Animation des kommenden Wismarer Triebwagens produzieren lassen. Einblicke in das kommende Spur-1-Modell.

Have a look.

Trains in the snow are part of winter. Here you can watch them.

...from the Thuringian Railway Nostalgia Program there is a video worth seeing.

You might look to Fort Madison from time to time. Here's a new perspective.

There are boring days. Then a trip to the Mississippi is worthwhile. On the Internet, of course.

A kind subscriber brought a disaster video to my attention.

Frozen turnouts blocked rail traffic in Germany, where normal winter weather that didn't affect rail traffic in the past was immediately hyped up as "snow chaos". Elsewhere, people are simply pragmatic and have ideas. Even if they are not particularly environmentally friendly.

At the end of 2019, spur1info reported about a Gauge 1 meeting in Hong Kong. Now there is news.

Yesterday evening, shortly before 8 p.m., the public service broadcaster Hessische Rundfunk reported about a large gauge 1 layout built by Fine Models and destined for a customer in Asia.

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

Gauge 1 usually suffers from too long vehicles and too short tracks. But you can, strictly following the example of the DB Regio, extend the journey time with a trick. German TV satirical program Extra3 showed the method again yesterday.
