80hrs from London to Lapland by Arctic Sleeper Train
Get started with Odoo today: https://www.odoo.com/r/mn7B
Join me on an epic adventure by sleeper train from London all the way to Lapland in the Arctic Circle. One of my more ambitious trips with multiple segments including sleeper trains, a First Class Nordic ferry and high speed TGV! I'll take you along each step of the way, and share with you my experience of each stopover city from Zurich, to Copenhagen to Helsinki.

How do trains change the tracks?
Trains are able to change the their trajectory with just a slight adjustment of the rail track. This clever switching design is achieved with a simple trick on the wheel and track. In this video we will also learn about rail crossing, wing rail and check rail. Let's take a closer look at how it works!

National Rail - Think Safe, Stay Safe
Passenger and freight trains passing through stations can generate strong slipstreams. The CCTV footage shows an incident that happened on a station platform with a pushchair that didn’t have breaks fully on. Luckily no one was hurt this time.
We encourage everyone to think safe and stay safe.
Here are few tips to help you make your journey safer:
• Keep well back from the platform edge
• Hold tight onto wheelchairs and apply breaks fully
• When travelling with pushchairs strap in, hold tight and apply breaks fully.
• Hold tight onto portable items such as luggage and other belongings

How Centralized Traffic Control makes rail traffic more efficient
Typically trains move in one direction on each line of a section of double track. Centralized Traffic Control (CTC) and crossovers allow trains to travel on both lines of double track in either direction, increasing the network's capacity.

Why Are There Stones Along Railway Tracks?
The crushed stones that line railroad tracks are collectively called track ballast. More specifically, the track ballast constitutes the trackbed upon which sleepers or railroad ties are laid. As you may have seen, these stones are packed below, between and around the railroad ties. The thickness of the track ballast usually ranges between 25-30 cm, and varies depending on certain conditions pertaining to the geographical location of the railway track.
Track ballast usually consists of crushed rocks or stone, but in some cases, less suitable alternatives, like burnt clay, are also used. However, it’s important to understand that you can’t just throw a bunch of rocks on a railroad and be done with it. As mentioned, the stones in the track ballast have a characteristic shape, size and textu...

Why U.S. Freight Trains Are So Much Better Than Passenger Rail
The United States lags behind the rest of the world when it comes to passenger trains but when it comes to the freight railroad the U.S. is dominating. The U.S. freight rail network operates over 140,000 miles of privately-owned track in every state except Hawaii, according to the Association of American Railroads. It moves one-third of all U.S. exports and roughly 40% of long distance freight volume.
It competes directly with the trucking industry to move goods around the country. Shipping everything from coal to cars to chemicals. And with the rise of e-commerce companies like Amazon, trains are increasingly moving consumer goods as well.
There are seven major freight railroads that connect North America. Union Pacific and BNSF dominate the west. CSX and Norfolk Southern are the prim...

Freight Rail & Forced Access (Deep Dive)
In a proposal from the STB — the agency that oversees freight railroad economic regulations — railroads could be forced to open their routes to competing railroads at potentially below-market rates to service shipping customers.

- For today, we decided to take a break from railway infrastructure projects and discussions about different countries’ railway systems, and instead, we’ll talk about one - let’s say - pure railway topic.
This video is therefore dedicated to the concept of a Marshalling Yard, and its role in the railway transport system.
The term Marshalling Yard actually varies depending on where you are, but, for example, in the US and Canada, it is known as the Classification Yard, while in Central Europe rather the Shunting Yard.
Besides a basic discussion about the role of the Marshalling yard in the railway system, the technology of work with trains and wagons in the yard, the types, and classifications of yards, we tried to show some examples of the world’s largest Marshalling yards.

- In one of the previous videos we talked about rail signaling as one of the key elements of the railway system. Today, we’ll talk about another such element, also crucial for the existence and functioning of the railway traffic. The railway track.
Railway track is a multilayered construction which typicaly includes rails, fish plates (also called joint bars or splice bars), rail fastening system, sleepers (also called ties), ballast and optionally a so called sub-ballast.
In this video we discuss the purpose of each of these elemets in the railway track, but also the role of the railway track as a whole.
All elements of the railway track must be able to absorb and transfer all forces resulting from the movements of trains (heavy static pressure plus dynamic impacts), and that from rails to sleepers, from sleepers to ballast, and finally from ballast to the base layer of the railway track.
At the end of the video, we briefly explained the ballast-less track (slab track), a type of modern and advanced railway track, in which the traditional elastic combination of sleepers and ballast is replaced by a rigid construction made of concrete or asphalt.

The crushed stones that line railroad tracks are collectively called track ballast. More specifically, the track ballast constitutes the trackbed upon which sleepers or railroad ties are laid. As you may have seen, these stones are packed below, between and around the railroad ties. The thickness of the track ballast usually ranges between 25-30 cm, and varies depending on certain conditions pertaining to the geographical location of the railway track.
Track ballast usually consists of crushed rocks or stone, but in some cases, less suitable alternatives, like burnt clay, are also used. However, it’s important to understand that you can’t just throw a bunch of rocks on a railroad and be done with it. As mentioned, the stones in the track ballast have a characteristic shape, size and texture. Their surface is not smooth and their edges are jagged, and for good reason. These rocks interlock with each other and therefore stay in place. If you replace them with circular or smooth rocks, they would slide over each other and compromise the strength of the track ballast. As you might imagine, this can have catastrophic results.

The United States lags behind the rest of the world when it comes to passenger trains but when it comes to the freight railroad the U.S. is dominating. The U.S. freight rail network operates over 140,000 miles of privately-owned track in every state except Hawaii, according to the Association of American Railroads. It moves one-third of all U.S. exports and roughly 40% of long distance freight volume.
It competes directly with the trucking industry to move goods around the country. Shipping everything from coal to cars to chemicals. And with the rise of e-commerce companies like Amazon, trains are increasingly moving consumer goods as well.
There are seven major freight railroads that connect North America. Union Pacific and BNSF dominate the west. CSX and Norfolk Southern are the primary east coast operators, while Kansas City Southern, along with Canadian Pacific and Canadian National run routes north and south. Amtrak, which is the United State’s passenger service, owns only 3% of the country’s rail.
In 2019, the five top railroads in the U.S. had a total operating revenue of more than $71 billion dollars.
But the freight rail industry’s success has not come without its challenges. The industry has dealt with bankruptcies, the lack of demand for coal and the more recent supply chain bottlenecks and rise in thefts. The seven top railroads, which own the majority of the tracks in North America, have also been criticized for power over the rail industry.
CNBC explores how freight railroads became so profitable and how the industry plans to evolve to stay on top.
Correction (February 3, 2022): At 1:41, Craig Fuller incorrectly states Amtrak is for-profit but Amtrak is not a for-profit corporation.
