As a follow up to my ride on Kazakhstan's old Soviet era train, I decided to take a ride on their so-called high-speed train. The journey took two nights, and it was nice, but there was an annoying problem...

![Riding the STUNNING Douro Valley railway line in Portugal! (Comboios de Portugal Review) [VOICEOVER]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rVY-IF-14yY/mqdefault.jpg "Riding the STUNNING Douro Valley railway line in Portugal! (Comboios de Portugal Review) [VOICEOVER]
Hello, and welcome back to another train trip report on my channel.
**This is also my first voiceover video, so I would really appreciate your thoughts and feedback on the new format. Please do leave a comment.**
In this video I will be travelling on-board a CP 1400 + Schindler from Porto-Campanhã to Pocinho.
This journey takes place on the stunning MiraDouro line, through the strikingly picturesque Douro Valley. The motive power for this trip is even an English Electric built diesel locomotive, which seems right at home on Portuguese tracks.
Its an incredible experience, and one I recommend to anyone in the area, whether they are interested in railways or not.
Enjoy the video. :)
