SBB/CFF/FFS has a integrated timetabling with local buses and trams and it is on a clock basis It is a very impressive system and it works. I was intrigued you didn't go out of the front of the only Hauptbahnhof in Switzerland. though as I remember it is open on all sides. At least she didn't greet you in Schwiizerdütsch (Schweizerdeutsch) which if you go on the Berner Oberland-Bahn they make announcements in the local dialect and like 3sat - you might need subtitles LOL Sorry but the way you said Bit-te reminded me so much of the way CLeavon Little said it in Blazing Saddles in the Schnitzengruben scene LOL

Yes, yes, the Swiss. You realize that you were in rebel territory, don't you? These "confederates" who simply broke away from the German king in 1291 in order to establish a democracy . My aunt is also Swiss, so she is also a rebel 😄

Thanks for your concern, and for finding the video. But I film in the public and the people are never the subject matter of the video. Been doing this for more than six years. I won’t be blurring any faces.👍🏾

Hm, nothing very special about the trains in Switzerland. Maybe a _little_ bit fancier than the ones in germany. The new german double decker's are alike. The narrow streets are just like here in Hanover - i guess you didn't wander around a lot in my town.

Hi Peter, I often take the Swiss train “Seehas” here in the south, they have several lines here. There's no comparison, so punctual, clean, flexible, no defects, staff absences,... Great

@arnodobler1096 Yeah what’s up with that? I saw not one train controller (attendant? Ticket checker?) on any Swiss train I went on. How do they keep control? I had to ask the other Klasse1 riders of if I could sit in Klasse1 (as briefly noted in the vid). They were basically like “no one really cares”.
