European Sleeper Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, Czechia 4 countries, 4 capitals, 1 sleeper train

Would love to take this train, but the prices are completely unbelievable. I understand that running a sleeper train is expensive, which is why it troubles me the EU does not want to provide meaningful subsidization.

The sleeping cars were owned by OBB

NS had this type of sleeping car too

Thank you for showing the bike space also. Cycling long distance routes (like Eurovelo routes) and night trains are a great combination👍🚴‍♀️🚂. Ga zo door😉

There'll be a bistro coach soon

The Berlin to Russia train service has been suspended since the beginning of the war in Ukraine.

I really like how you also give a lot of information around the train, the route etc.

Though there is one kinda(?) wrong information here: The European Sleeper is the last train leaving Praha to Berlin, in normal Timetable. This Summer though, and maybe also the following years, ČD runs an additional pair of trains betwenn Berlin-Praha and vice versa. The Train to Berlin leaves around 20ish and arrives half past midnight i think, and the Train to Praha leaves around early Midnight, and arrives at like half past 5. For some Reason it takes an hour longer than the regular services, but no complaints. As long as the Railjet is not reliable enough this is a great alternative.

Mooie reportage. ES lijkt een product met veel potentie. Goede catering en een update van de compartimenten en je hebt een heel concurrerend product. Maar voor je kunt rennen zul je eerst moeten leren lopen.

Did it last september with a group of friends, was an absolute hoot and way more fun than flying, despite costing a lot of money

Neat video, but I would be grateful if you don't use AI generated content going forward. Given how generative AI makes outputs from content across the internet without the original creators consent, it means that many photographers, artists, people, musicians, and anyone else working in a creative field is having their likeness stolen without consent by the AI companies. It's just really disrespectful to any other fellow creative to use AI and allowing this behavior knowing the circumstances of AI generation.

Hoe lang duurt de reis vanuit Bad Bentheim? Ik kom uit Almelo

One thing they did not have in the 1950s were hot summers....so make sure you bring some very light clothing in the summer months. You have a sauna included in the price of your ticket 😄

Can i invest in ES from the UK? I went to the site and it doesn’t let me

a European sleeper song? :D

nice video btw!

Interessant, bedankt!

My daughter and I have individual sleeper compartments booked from Brussels to Prague at the beginning of June (2024) - nobody mentioned that there was a connecting door so thank you for that too!

You are so lucky to live on the mainland of Europe - we have been cast adrift into the North Sea and have to catch the train from London to Brussels to get to the sleeper train.

On our way home we are catching day trains: Prague to Berlin (stop 2 nights); Berlin to Amsterdam (stop 2 nights) and then Amsterdam/Brussels/London in one day and home!

Love the way your little train chugs across the map a the beginning - how do you do that?

EDIT: just back from visiting your Google Maps page - brilliant!

Use train. C02 footprint much smaler and trains are great 👍

doesnt it get hot if there is no airconditioning in the private compartment.

ik hem gezien in Antwerpen Centraal op 14 Augustus

European Sleeper is to have a dining car from September 1 to November 1 as a pilot project ! There is a press release on their web site.

BTW, whenever I hear you voice, my brain immediately recall your pronounciation for Ürümqi during your trip to China some time ago (apparently no longer possible via Kazakhstan).
