In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view on the DSB train from Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark to Padborg on the German border along The Copenhagen–Fredericia railway/Taulov line and Fredericia – Flensburg railway line in 4K/60 frames per second.
Our journey leads us along the Copenhagen–Fredericia/Taulov Line, the Danish railway line between the capital, Copenhagen, and the Jutland peninsula through the islands of Zealand and Funen. It has a length of about 220 kilometres (140 mi). Being one of the main arteries of the Danish railway network, it has a double track and is fully electrified. The line is composed of the railway line across Zealand (the West Line) and the main line across Funen (the Funen Main Line), both built during the mid-19th century. Originally connected by the Great Belt ferries, these two lines were joined in 1997 by the Great Belt Fixed Link.
After Frederica our journey continues along the Fredericia–Padborg railway line (Danish: Fredericia-Padborg-banen), 110.6 kilometres (68.7 mi) long railway line in Denmark which runs through the historical region of Southern Jutland between the city of Fredericia and the German border at Padborg. Being one of the main arteries of the Danish railway network, the standard gauge and fully electrified railway line is double track except for the section between Tinglev and Padborg which is single track. The railway line constitutes the southernmost part of the East Jutland longitudinal railway line (Danish: Den Østjyske Længdebane), the through route along the east coast of the Jutland Peninsula from the port city of Frederikshavn in North Jutland to the German border at Padborg, where it connects to the Flensburg–Padborg railway line and the German railway network.
The Padborg-Flensburg line was electrified on 2 June 1996 with the usual German voltage of 15,000 volts 16⅔ Hz. The Fredericia-Padborg line followed on 1 April 1997 with the usual Danish voltage of 25,000 volts 50 Hz. There is a de-energised section at Padborg station to separate the two systems. Cross-border trains must be able to handle both power systems.
I would like to thank the DSB for allowing me to record this video and for all the valuable help from the staff.
