    Wonderful film. I am laying in my confortable, warm California condo bedroom with a huge flat screen tv. I have traveled by train in Europe many times and I love train travel. Due to COVID and health issues, my travel the last year has been nil. I think I could become an armchair traveler with films like yours…..and maybe that will be my fate. The sound and filming almost made me feel like I was on your train with you. Thank you so much! Sharon Allansmith

    As an American who doesn't have full-service passenger train service, I get so envious when i see videos like these. I loved travelling Europe by rail especially on Virgin Trains and TGV - they were so comfortable and relaxing to ride on. I can only wish that my country will one day have coast-to-coast high speed passenger rail - the only way to travel!

    Well done video. I'm a retired Amtrak locomotive engineer in California and I have relatives [cousins] in Sweden who live in Dalarna. I have been to Smaland and Dalarna 50 years ago and rode SJ from Malmo to Stockholm and return. The SJ is an excellent system. I used to run Amtrak passenger trains south from Chicago to St. Louis and Chicago east to Fort Wayne and Pittsburg PA.back in the 1980's to 1990's. I transferred west and ran Amtrak out of Sacramento to Reno/Sparks across Donner Pass and the Coast Starlight from Oakland to Santa Barbara, CA. Keep up you good job showing off the train equipment and comments. I'm glad you took the time to walk forward in the train to take a shot of the historic SJ (Swedish Toaster) Electric motor that was on the point of the train. I used to run Illinois Central R.R. Electric 1500VDC passenger MU's out of Downtown Chicago to the south suburbs So. Chicago, Blue Island, & University Park in 1960's to 1970's. Great video that took me to the place !

    Back in the 80’s I studied at the University of Luleå and often took the overnight train when I went home for Christmas. During that period they introduced a bar/cinema wagon last in the train. That was a very nice way to spend the evening before going to sleep, as the train left Luleå around 5pm.

      Sista gången det investerades i tåg i norrbotten. Tågkompaniet var rätt bra, men kunde tyvärr inte lägga ny räls och uppgradera tågen till modern standard. Men älskar att de försökte på sätten de kunde, biovagn och panoramarestaurangvagnen var episka. Vy däremot.... de och svenska banverket har en cirkel i helvetet som väntar.

    back in the late '80s, i shared a sleeper car from copenhagen to amsterdam with 3 people from france & 2 americans...
    at 1 point, the train broke apart & our section was loaded onto a ferry, which then sailed from denmark to germany...
    in germany, our section was hooked up with another train & we then went to sleep for the rest of the journey to amsterdam...
    i loved that experience & seeing the shots of the sleeper cabins in this video brought back those great memories...
    thanks...

    As an American, I loved sleeping on overnight(s) passenger trains; the Amtrak trains on the Los Angeles-Seattle runs, the Empire Builder (Seattle-Chicago runs) and the Wash. D.C.-Orlando runs. Our services include menu choices for three meals, plus snacks, coffee, tea, all day!! The showers spaces were great, also! Many rooms also have their own full bathrooms. Room service is also available. I have never over-night'ed in Europe, but loved traveling around by train. Thank you.

    Oh, what a perfect night train. I love the dimly lit coaches which look very relaxing for a short trip. The natural wood armrests and wood accents exude warmth and cozy comfort. Most of the night trains I've viewed on CZcams lack decent food or beverage service. Some offer nothing to eat or drink, so it is refreshing to see a lovely bistro car in the consist. I am enjoying taking this journey with you so thanks for the ride.

      I think train travel is slot easier on a person than plane travel. I like being able to get up and easily walk around, and having a restroom with a shower is awesome. Plus I sleep well on a train, though it takes getting used to the rocking back and forth motion. Kind of similar to being on a boat.
      I'd certainly love to travel in Europe, especially northern Europe, into Sweden, Finland, Norway. Still, travel with the U.S. on a train is fun and scenic and worth doing. I recently made a train trip east to Colorado to visit my (recently deceased) mom's grave, from my home in the greater Seattle area. Even during winter, the train gets through. I loved seeing the western U.S. from my window on Amtrak.

    I only wish you had reviewed the food (pricing, quality, value for money, portion size, etc).

    I am from the USA. Have never done a sleeper train although I have been to various parts of Europe. In America, they have long distance trains called Amtrak but they seem to fall off the train tracks/derail with people getting hurt on a regular basis. Never got to Austria or Denmark although I have been to Switzerland and U.K. many times. And I took the Flying Scotsman from London to Edinburgh.

    Great video. I am a bit biased as my son lives in Gothenburg so have had lots of visits there. I find the Swedish trains seem good to me but local people would differ. Maybe they are extra picky! Minor detail: they run on the left just like in the U.K.

    I've taken a sleeper train in Sweden once... went from Luleå in the north (where I live) to Örebro. I found sleeping to be very difficult, with the rocking of the train and the fact that I got a bit motion sick. Then again. I took a night train in Kazakhstan just a couple of years ago and slept like a clubbed seal for nine hours... but that might have been because I'd been awake for around 36 hours before getting on the train.

    Interesting video, as a Brit I have lived here about 25 years, but haven’t been that far north, I live outside Norrköping and was regular traveller between Uppsala and Norrköping not now. The Swedish rail system is in general very good, trains are more roomy and comfortable. The British system is limited by the infrastructure old bridges and tunnels which restrict train sizes. This has wetted my appetite, good video well done.
