  • wow! that was really cool the first minute is great if you watch it at the same time as the video you posted this as a response to. your train goes faster though so you have to pause it once and a while. but really cool. you should edit them together slow down your train and put them in the same video.

  • I've never watched both of them at the same time, but I'll try now! I like comparisons between old and new places (even if time doesn't exist...). In my hometown Kitzingen I took pictures from the exact same point the photographer did long time ago (50-100 years old pictures) and published this comparison in our local newspaper. They even paid me money for this :-)

  • @rafigonzalez What 485? In the Video you only see 481 ;)

  • Of course. In 1989 the 485 have been standard, nowadays the models are the 481 and 480.

    The 485 were from the 50s (the youngest ones), so they needed to replaced.

  • schade das ich nicht mehr in berlin wohne ich vermisse diese sounds

  • Isn't Sudkreuz just the new name for Papesstr ? I use Sudkreuz a lot as I visit Sudende regularly.

  • der sound der baureihe 485 ist einfach herrlich

  • @davedavid 86:

    Yeah, there are new trains! The new ones are the BR 481 (built 1996 - 2004), BR 480 (built 1987, 1994) and BR 485 (built 1988 - 1992). The old ones are the BR 475 (built in the 1920's), BR 476 (built in the 1930's) and the BR 477 (built in the 1930's). ;)

    STOPPT DIE BAHNPRIVATISIERUNG!

  • @ktome889:

    The old commuter station "Lehrter Stadtbahnhof" was refreshed in the 1980's. For the new central station of Berlin it had been destroyed. The Hauptbahnhof Lehrter Bahnhof ist a all new station. There are 6 railway tracks above the earth and 8 in the underground (+ in the future commuter trains & Underground & trams). Also new and opened at the 28 May 2006 are the stations Jungfernheide, Gesundbrunnen, Potsdamer Platz, Südkreuz and Lichterfelde Ost.

  • 'Nächste Station: Hauptbahnhof. Übergang zum Regional- und Fernverkehr' I love Berlin - riding the S- and U-Bahnen is great! :)

  • thanks a lot for this clip! does gives me a better view of germany while studying history.

  • have they changed the S-Bahn trains - or the train gauges - since the reunification? this train seems a lot quicker than the one i saw in the 1990 video..
