★ 4K 🇨🇭 Le Locle – La-chaux-de-Fonds – Biel/Bienne cab ride [01.2021] Führerstandsmitfahrt



In this video, we start in Le Locle on a line completed in 1860, connecting Neuchâtel with France via La Chaux-de-Fonds, however in La Chaux-de-Fonds, we will deviate onto the line to Biel, which was completed in 1874. Normally the line to Le Locle is served by trains from Neuchâtel, but due to construction work, the trains from Biel were operating all the way to Le Locle.

For those who’d like to see the line to Neuchâtel, here is the link: • ★ 4K 🇨🇭La Chaux-de-Fonds – Neuchâtel … ).

Before the opening of the Grenchenberg line in 1915, that we’ve looked at previously (link: • ★ 4K 🇨🇭Tilt train Biel – Moutier – De… ), the part of the line between Biel and Sonceboz-Sombeval served as the international connection between Biel – Moutier – Delémont – Delle – Belfort. Afterwards, it was downgraded to a branch line.

Enjoy the scenery as we descend close to 600 metres on our journey through the Jura mountains from the French border to the city of Biel. We will change from Summer to winter in La Chaux-de-Fonds.

    Beau parcours, mais la vue est très très très inconfortable. La caméra est centrée sur le rail gauche au lieu d'être centrée au milieu des deux rails

    Is this train a commuter train? or is it a mixed use one? Travellers and workers ?

    Thank you for the video, and right on time as the line from Le Locle to La Chaux-de-Fonds will re-open tomorrow the 19.08 after the terrible storm that destroyed many of the city and the rail infrastructure.

    Following your video, all the way from the infinite spring to the snow, let me appreciate the scenery of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

    Blurred vision,, look at cars on road when train comes to a stop at station. They blurred, so as train moves fast on track, they look like the cars on the😮 road… Is a little better as train comes out tunnel, but stil very blurry. 16.58 perfect vision as always ❤

    Sempre affascinante e stupendo il Jura ❤❤ho sempre in mente quella vacanza fantastica a 16 anni nel 1977 per un mese a casa di parenti Italiani a Bienne ❤❤

    Must have been quite a layover at La Chaux for all that snow to accumulate. 😂😂 Where was Taubenloch Tunnel VI?

    Thanks for the video, it brought a memory back – of arriving at Le Locle aboard an SNCF X2800 to see the guard on a departing SBB train about to raise his baton. Cue, mad scramble aboard with bags…. then, when the guard came doing his round after La Chaux-de-Fonds and inquired on our destination (no tickets asked as we were on Eurailpasses) the penny crashed – we were on the wrong train! Our destination for the day would have been Neuchatel, but with the hurry we had got onto the Biel train instead without checking the destination board… rather than backtracking, my parents decided to skip this stage and head for our next stop, Spiez, where the "gastatteleiterin" at our booked accommodation very kindly found us a room ahead of our booked arrival date.
