@scotchprofessor Haha. It happens that I was actually in one of those 50 degree trains as you mentioned in 2010. There was a faulty air-conditioning on an ICE-express train heading to the airport in the middle of summer and therefore the train had to stop, which caused me to miss my flight! So I had to book a new flight the next morning, which cost me a booking fee of $600! Luckily though, I managed to get Deutsche Bahn to repay me most of that money. So what do you think is at fault here?
@scotchprofessor you are terribly messing around with the difference between state and private. There is absolutely no formal need for a private corporation to consult the public - like if Google asks YOU where to build something. They can basically do whatever they want. Only the state is at fault for not informing about S21 financial support or for failing to push for more competition between railway companies or for draining the money out of the company and hindering investment
I have no complain with the fact that german drivers teach in Taiwan HSR but, why not japonesse drivers, who have experience with their own trains (nozomis) ???
@GullinborstiHoch100 Denn der Mann wurde in Deutschland als Fahrer gebildet? Sonst nichts. Lustig ist: "300 km/Std ist die Hoechstgeschwindigkeitsbegrenzung." @2:31 erscheint 301 km/Std.
The Taiwan High Speed 700T train (台灣高鐵700T型電聯車) is a type of Shinkansen rolling stock built for Taiwan High Speed Rail (THSR). The 700T series is based on the Japanese 700 Series Shinkansen and the "T" came from the specification for THSR. The 700T series marks the first time Japanese shinkansen trains have been exported overseas. The trains are manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Nippon Sharyo, and Hitachi, Ltd., and all of the preliminary 30 consists were built in Japan.Source Wikipedia
Was beschwert ihr euch ueber die DB??? Kommt mal hier nach nord amerika und dann seht ihr was fuer ein service hier ist. Totaller muell. DB ist sehr gut und weil da ein zug mal 5min verspaetung hat ist kein grund auszuflippen.
@LSBonnPower kennst du nicht diesen Nazi Kultur spruch? : Deutschland - Auserwählt doch nie zu Frieden ! das liegt im deutschem blut. egal was wir besitzen oder erfinden, wir sind nie mit etwas komplett zufrieden. wollen immer alles verbessern, auch wenn wir schon in manchen gebieten die besten sind.
that 700T might have the same type of engines as 500 series.
Would be Outstanding if a country buys a set of new 500 series Shinkasnsen to run it @ 350km/h or beyond 400km/h, ya know... that long nose were made to go hyper fast lol
german trains...regional, express..surely the least pleasant way to travel in that country.
i find them airless, full of coughing passengers, no fresh air at all, climate controlled is a joke, they are noisy, the announcements on board are too loud.
ironic..volume cannot be controlled by the onboard staff...but by engineers at the train siloes...climate control is a joke....i would rather walk. a fart on german trains.they really deserve instant upgrade via a drastic new service.
strangelver the word they like DB. personally in germany we have only problems. they are too expensive, too less service. the passangers don't count at all, only the quotation. and the regionaltrains are not in focus of DB, DB only pushes the ICE... but this great train is just too expensive and doesnt help for short rides at all. I personally hate DB, private companies are much better here.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
german trains are essentially over heated airless grief holes more often than not manned by grisly women with precious little people skills...deutsches bahn is a disgrace. plastic folk fill their adverts, and the trains otherwise are empty. my advice, forget trains in germany and get a lift or walk. a pox on deutsches bahn and its scummy suffocation boxes they have the gall to call trains. engineering?a pathetic smokescreen.
DB sucks balls here in Germany. The Berlin main station is overcrowded and chaotic, and regional trains are expensive, slow and not very reliable. Also the measures taken to get the conglomerate called DB ready for the stock market have postponed many repairs on the overall rail system. Don´t fall for that hype, they suck big time.
" Deutsche Bahn's planned stock market flotation due to take place in late October was postponed because of the global financial crisis, but it has not been scrapped ... ".
Not yet it hasn' ... but it will be and rail travellers around the world will rejoice!

The company has no moral compass. It bleeds money, and then through any means necessary robs the public with its overpriced, under-delivering service.
I blame the management, and its entire corporate culture.
Austrians or the Swiss? Maybe. The French? The Japanese? Deutsche Bank? Deutscher Fußball-Bund? Just anyone.
