  Invited by a stranger to ride their private train through Eastern Europe sounds like the opening of a murder mystery 😃

  The best bit about old-fashioned rail travel is that you can indulge your inner golden retriever with sticking your nose in the wind and getting treats every few hours.

  I am a video editor from past 10 years and been following you from past 2-3 years. Here i would like to applaud for editing part. Despite of shooting by multiple cameras and angles 58 mins went smooth like butter. No unnecessary jump cuts which break your viewing experience. From a distance it looks so simple editing but there are so many smart nd hidden cuts done smoothly, managed b-rolls so well.. i mean i can go on nd on from a technical perspective. Not just this video but your all long format videos. Kudos to editing team. Well done 👏🏼 and specially to you downie for entertaining us and showing us the world. Every editor who has just started should have watched your every videos to learn such simple but effective stuff. Love from India 🇮🇳😊

  Fun fact, the 1st locomotive, 240.129 is a 240 class &quot;laminatka&quot;, Czechoslovak design. Laminatka, because the cab is made from laminate (plastic?) &nbsp;It was succeeded by the 242 class Plechac (tin can) , 240 and 242 class locomotives are still common in SK, HU, SRB, Bulgaria etc. (In Bulgaria they run by numbers 044, 045) The Laminatka has max speed of 120km/h, but they usually don&apos;t go faster than 100km/h. The second one, the diesel is class 740 owned by Hungarian sub. of PKP Cargo (Polish railways ) called PKP Cargo International. Class 740, called &quot;Kocúr&quot; (tomcat) has VMAX of 70km/h, and originally constructed for heavy shunting service. There was the 742 class, vmax 90km/h. And as the 240/242 electric locomotives, the 740/742 are pretty common too.

  Another first for me. I&apos;ve been on more firsts with you in my 70s than at any other time in my life. Next month I&apos;m 80 and I don&apos;t know how many more firsts are left for this life and I don&apos;t know where you&apos;re going next, but I know I&apos;m going with you as long as God allows me to stay here. Thanks for another amazing trip and God bless each one for you the rest of your life.
