Every Train Maker We Forgot, Explained in 13 Minutes

Forgotten train makers explained: Newag, AnsaldoBreda, ICF, Škoda, Hyundai Rotem, EMD, CAF and Bombardier. The history of the train manufacturers we left out of our first video. Train makers get sold, merged and swallowed, but their trains keep running. Eight companies, from the smallest to the biggest, ending with one that was once the biggest on Earth. Which one did you expect least? In this video: Newag: researchers accuse its trains of hidden lockout code, and Newag denies it AnsaldoBreda: a bullet train that carried passengers for just 39 days ICF: one factory in Chennai that rolls out about 3,000 coaches a year Škoda: the trains and the cars share a name, but not an owner Hyundai Rotem: South Korea's bullet trains, and its tanks EMD: the diesel locomotives that helped end steam CAF: the Basque trams and the Washington Metro cars Bombardier: from snow vehicles to the biggest train maker on Earth Chapters: 0:00 Newag 1:51 AnsaldoBreda 3:10 ICF 4:35 Škoda 6:22 Hyundai Rotem 7:37 EMD 9:18 CAF 10:20 Bombardier 11:48 What We Forgot Watch this next: Every Major Train Manufacturer Explained in 11 Minutes    • Every Major Train Manufacturer Explained i...   Every Weird Engine Explained in 12 Minutes    • Every Weird Engine Explained in 12 Minutes   Every Failed Plane Concept Explained in 13 Minutes    • Every Failed Plane Concept Explained in 13...   The Best Rockets Ever Made Explained    • The Best Rockets Ever Made Explained   Weirdly Built explains the strangest things humans ever built.
