What a great video! Glad you enjoyed the ride, and thank you for travelling with us :)
Thank you! I really enjoyed the journey with this new train!
Nice to see that SOB themeselves are even commenting on your video. I love their trains, I personally commute with the flirt almost everyday and I can't wait to be a Lokführer (Engine Driver) one day
Sob is awesome!
@@ZRHTrainspotter Agree
@@Official_NotA3501 ah hello here we meet again :)
I live in Einsiedeln and when ever i travel on train I use the SOB trains. They are very wonderful
Très belle vidéo ferroviaire avec le SOB !
Merci pour le partage !
Salutations de Normandie 🇨🇵👍🚂🤩
This train has a very nice, high quality interior. I wanna ride along too! Thanks for this virtual portrait of the Traverso!
That’s a very well explained video, I will look forward to try out the same line and seating:-)
This train is gorgeous 👏
Without a doubt you must travel this line and try this train! I hope you liked the video and I invite you to subscribe my channel.
@@marcostrain sure I will:)
Very nice video, Marco. 👍
Amazing video! These trains “Traverso” are not commuter trains but long distance interregios and Voralpen Express. The commuter version (flirt3) runs on some regional routes
Aye we’re getting these trains in the UK with an operator called Greater Anglia! We’ll be getting alternatives called the 745 and 755!
Yes, I have seen pictures of the trains you say. They look great! They are longer than this from SOB, right?
Very enjoyable video Marco, many thanks. We did that same journey in 2018 on older SOB rolling stock. It's a lovely route and well worth doing. Would also love to travel on the new SOB/SBB FLIRT service from Basel/Zurich to Locarno. We now have some similar FLIRT trains in the UK working services in East Anglia (Essex/Norfolk/Suffolk/Cambridgeshire). They have also received some very good reviews from travellers.
Nice trip report those trains look very good and almost the same as the new class 745 and 755 flirt trains which I hope to do soon
Hi Marcos, Nice informative video about a beautiful train. Spotted the train view times now, but where not able to see the insight. Looks good. Greetz from the Netherlands, Joachim - TrainJJ
Thanks Joachim!!
@@marcostrain 👊👍
Thats not an commuter train, Its an InterRegio train for regional service but still a nice video👍
Beautiful Train😍
The front looks exactly like the GA train.
thanks, but 2. class inspection would have been nice, since that is what we actually use.
Hi, what a wonderful train, its amazing, so clean and beautiful! How many hours take the full trip? Greetings from Argentina
Hola Bruno. El viaje en tren de Lucerna a San Galo (o a la inversa) dura 2h y 15 min. Espero que te haya gustado el vídeo y te invito a susribirte ;)
Very Scandinavian looking interior 👍🏻
You showed us the Seedamm but not the castel of Rapperswil :(
Why are there only vis-à-vis seats in first class?
It's the most common seat configuration in Switzerland. In second class it's the same.
How much did the ride cost?
Hi Piyush! The ride was included in my first class Interrail pass. The train fares in Switzerland usually vary according to the advance with which you buy the ticket and the train departure time. I don't know the exact ticket price but you can check the SBB website for more information. ➡️ sbb.ch
