Welcome aboard an InterCity service between Basel and Bern. We'll be travelling on the new “Bahn 2000“ line between Olten and Bern, the only line predominantly in the open to allow speeds over 160km/h. The Gotthard and Lötschberg base tunnels being the remaining high speed lines. The video depicts the current state of the line. In the near future I will be uploading a video of this route as light signals were still operated alongside the ETCS Level 2 (Cab signalling). Interesting on this trip are the various construction zones along the way and how they have been transforming the railway since. In Wankdorf (52:47) for example, where they are building an underpass to allow trains to cross paths without obstructing each other's paths. If you'd like to donate, please click the following link.
