EuroCity: the 70-year-old new train route | Brussels to Rotterdam

I took the recently launched EuroCity train between Brussels and Rotterdam. This intercity and cross border train service was launched under the EuroCity brand name only in December 2024. Trains have been running on this route in one form or another from the late 1950’s though. ▶️ Join my channel!    / @johan_travels   ▶️ Chapters 00:00 – Brussels Midi station 02:00 – What is EuroCity? 02:50 – This trip 08:25 – Mechelen station onwards 10:13 – Breda station onwards ▶️ Music 🎵 Track @02:01: Japan 3 AM by TELL YOUR STORY music by ikson™ Link: https://ikson.com/track/226/japan-3-am 🎵 Track @02:51: Once Upon A Time by Chill Pulse Source: https://freetouse.com/music Copyright Free Music for Videos 🎵 Track @05:38: Survival Mode by Unheard Source: https://freetouse.com/music Royalty Free Music for Video (Safe) 🎵 Track @09:33: Ode to Joy – Beethoven | AudioNetwork Source:    • Ode to Joy - Beethoven   🎵 Track @10:23: Dancing In The Rain by Zambolino Source: https://freetouse.com/music Copyright Free Background Music ▶️ Acknowledgement Clip flag of the European Union Michał Swistak via Pixabay Link: https://pixabay.com/videos/flag-europ... ▶️ Tags Brussel Zuid, Brussels South, Bruxelles Midi, EuroCity train, EuroCity Direct, train Rotterdam Brussels, international train travel, cross border train, train travel Europe, Europe by train
