dulevoz | Rail traffic in Hungary - One day in Szárliget -- Fulfilled day of fast and freight rail sounds [4K] @dulevoz | Uploaded March 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
From the foggy morning to the sunny and clear evening, this video shows a lot of trains in one whole day in Szárliget village and its surroundings. Many fast passenger trains and slightly less freight trains filled this day at the track junction and switch area of the railway station Szárliget.
This railway station is located on the main line from Budapest to Central and Western Europe, at Budapest – Hegyeshalom – Rajka railway line, between Budapest and Győr, near Szár and Tatabánya (Budapest – Hegyeshalom – Rajka vasútvonal at Komárom - Esztergom Hungarian county region). The area is characterized by a winding 140km/h and 160km/h two-track corridor railway line, which crosses over hilly undulating terrain, with an abundance of beautiful meadows and fields.
In order to achieve the best train - rail sound effects the recording was realized in the area of the track switches on both sides of the station. There's a bunch of rail track junctons and rail gaps, where the wheels and bogies of fast passing trains make the well-known and most beautiful railway sounds.
With plenty of different freight and speed passenger trains, spending a whole day on this line is not boring, especially for railway enthusiasts and photographers. Among others, there are InterCity, EuroCity, EuroNight, Railjet and Regiojet trains, as well as intermodal and mixed freight MÁV, ÖBB and Raaberbahn or GYSEV trains.
Recording started early in the morning, around 7am, in a very dense fog. The sight of the fog on the railway with the sun breaking through it, could be interesting as the trains appear out of nowhere and blast through it. After two hours, the fog gradually lifted to give way to low clouds and a sunny day. Recording was completed just before dark, by a slow freight train, which was overtaken by the fast Railjet.

Enjoy the scenery mountainous area of the spectacular Semering railway pass and more than 90 trains in the 1-hour long 4k video. Semmeringbahn is one of the oldest mountain railway lines in Europe. Due to the exceptional beauty of the landscape surrounding, as well as the outstanding architectural works created in almost two centuries ago, this line is one of the outstanding cultural and natural resources. This line passes through scenery landscapes of lower Austria Alps. Crossing over the mountain pass required the construction of several large railway line serpentines. Routing of the railway line required the construction of a wide variety of rail tunnels and viaducts. Old historical railway tunnels, galleries and viaducts along this railway line attract great attention with their beautiful appearance.
Today, this line is an important route for the traffic of numerous passenger and freight trains. This is the connection between the numerous European freight transport centers and ports on the Adriatic Sea. It explains the presence of large number of freight trains.

![Rail traffic and 200 km/h Hanover - Hamburg - Germany ICE high-speed trains [4K]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/o0VaqBYmjOQ/hqdefault.jpg "Rail traffic and 200 km/h Hanover - Hamburg - Germany ICE high-speed trains [4K]
Germany ICE high-speed and freight trains traffic at central - northern Germany main railway line Hanover - Hamburg. Operating speed for ICE and IC trains is 200km/h and theres also very dense and frequent freight rail traffic. There is an extraordinary number of old and new types of Deutsche Bahn InterCity Express trains (DB ICE 1, ICE 2, ICE T, ICE 4 in all three train formations).
It is an extremely busy railway line with around 400 trains per day (around 200/day per direction). Industrial centers and the port of Hamburg are the main generators of a large number of intermodal and all other types of freight trains. Container intermodal trains are prevailing. The Hanover–Hamburg railway is one of the most important railway lines in Lower Saxony and Germany. It links the Lower Saxon state capital of Hanover with Hamburg, running through Celle, Uelzen and Lüneburg.
One of the main highlights of this video is the special sound effects and accompanying feeling of fast trains passing by. Special scenic environment for the filming was achieved by relatively calm winter weather and the old railway buildings and facilities on the side of the tracks dating back almost 180 years.
The old railway line, renovated and modernized for speeds of 200 km/h, is completely integrated into the natural environment it passes through. The peace and quiet that rule the environment, with some calming sounds of nature and the chirping of birds, is occasionally disturbed for a short time by the approaching fast express or freight train. Winter weather without snow, with trees without leaves, provides very interesting contrasting scenes. Then all the sounds of the environment spread easily and the sound of oncoming trains can be heard from a great distance. The loud screeching rail sound under the wheels of the train is especially pronounced when the locomotive of passenger trains accelerates.
At train stations and stops, some platforms for passengers are located next to the main fast tracks. In those cases, an rail station announcement for attention is occasionally heard over the loudspeaker due to the passing of a train without stopping. It sounds powerful, especially when its repeated twice in a row before a train comes by. In the short time before the oncoming train, there is uncertainty and eager anticipation as to which train will come.
Recording was done on a stretch of 90 km from Lüneburg to Celle. On that section, some scenes were recorded in:
Bienenbüttel - several freight train overtakings by ICE trains;
Bad Bevensen - old scenic railway station, with announcements of caution and attention due to trains passing by the platforms;
Uelzen - station renovated following plans by the Austrian artist and architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser. The Uelzen station is now marketed as the Hundertwasser-Bahnhof Uelzen. Today it is one of the towns popular tourist attractions;
Suderburg - evening calming scenes with the silence interrupted by the passing of a couple of ICE trains;
Unterlüß - a scene in a park with train wheels and railway signals with a large number of consecutive intermodal trains;
Eschede - the place where most known high-speed train accident happened (Eschede train disaster). It is the biggest ICE train tragedy ever and the greatest of all high-speed trains tragedies in the World. Memorial garden and park in Eschede is shown in more detail in the second half of the video;
Celle - a night scene with a blue sky, the end of the days noise and trains rush, with loud sounds from the belfry of the nearby church. The silence of the stopped train is briefly disturbed by sudden passing of the fast ICE train passing on the next track.
Some of the special scenic filming locations are the dense, old forests through which this railway line passes. In the surroundings, with a railway view, there are also beautiful, old historical, German building style houses.
The recording was done over two days in February 2024.")

The gorge of the Jiu River in Romania is a part of Jiului National park in the western Carpathian Mountains. Through this gorge there is a railway line between Petrosani and Targu Jiu (Romanian railway line number 202). There are many railway tunnels, galleries and bridges. Due to age, parts of this line, like some old tunnels and retaining walls, seem abandoned and very spooky. The whole environment is left only to weather and natural influences. There are no houses and villages nearby, so in that gorge there is a large number of reptiles and poisonous snakes. It is known that snakes prefer to stay on the train tracks, especially in the evening when the tracks remains warm from the sun during the day. During the recording of trains at this line, I came across several snakes and some of them I managed to record. The most terrible of all was the snake in the middle of the railway tunnel in total darkness. This scene represents a horror note in this film and I think it completes the whole story about this railway line and its train traffic and makes it more interesting.

Railroad crossing in the central part of Belgrade railway junction, at the northern entrance to the railway station Topčider. It stretches over 4 tracks, at 3 different railway lines. The lines it crosses are:
- Beograd - Nis (and Bar) mainline,
- Novi Beograd - Topcider freight trains line and
- Pancevo - Beograd - Topcider nonelectrified freight trains line.
The railroad crossing Topcider is manually handled by station staff. It is often closed for a long time and thats why people often do not pay attention to incoming trains. They are used to passing tracks without regard to ramps and trains. It all makes this railway crossing very interesting for watching and potentially dangerous.

September and October 2017.")
