Train Cab Ride NL / Level Crossing Failure / ’s Hertogenbosch - Amsterdam / VIRM IC / April ’22.

Hi everyone and welcome to a new Train Cab Ride! This time we get to drive a VIRM intercity from Den Bosch to Amsterdam with some delays on the route. First of all due to a faulty level crossing and the second time due to a system failure at the train dispatcher. Take a seat and enjoy the ride! 0:00 ’s Hertogenbosch We start the ride right on time at Den Bosch (’s Hertogenbosch). But we won’t be driving on time for a very long time. 5:47 Faulty Level Crossing There’s a faulty level crossing ahead. A car collision with one of the fences damaged the level crossing. Until that problem has been fixed all trains must approach the level crossing with a maximum speed of 10km/h and sound the horns repeatedly before passing it. First we get a call from the train dispatcher. He gives us the assignment to limit the speed to 10km/h at the level crossing. Special rules are in place for these kind of situation. After we confirmed the assignment we are just a few kilometers awa
