"What did Hermann Goring have for Breakfast ??" . . . "Luftwaffles" . . .
-
I cant imagine what all is hidden in private collections around the world..
-
Just imagine what we're going to find within the next 50 years as collectors start dying off.
-
Love to learn on a Sunday! Thanks DrFelton
-
"Goring loved his food." No, really? What gave that away?
-
Dr Felton. I have been a WWII buff all my life. If I hadn't gone into forensic science, I would have gotten my master's degree military history. This video is perhaps the most fascinating you have ever done. I never imagined that so much of these train cars would be in regular use into the 1970s and 80.
-
This channel is amazing. Thank you for all your hard work.
-
"Porter! Goering is stuck in the tub again!"
-
I sat in his Mercedes Benz the Blue Goose in Marysville, Ohio. A collector in Dayton bought it in the early 90's from a Connecticut museum.
-
Dr Felton makes WWII history much more interesting.
-
Man Göring knew how to get the most out of his position
-
On the subject of Göring's trains you may be interested to know that there is a 15 inch gauge locomotive, Black Prince, at the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway in Kent which previously belonged to the Reichsmarshall.
-
1:31 I can't get past the Kriegsloks whistles, what a haunting sound from the past, leave it to Doc Felton to keep us up at night.
-
The shootage accompanying the narration is incredible, would have thought that even the German state with full secret access to war archives could not have produced as relevant video. I don't know how you access them and that alone would be worth an entire video.
-
Please never stop producing these videos!
-
Mark Felton's video shows up on notification and i am happy
-
We found Herman Görings train before GTA 6
-
This is truly fascinating and without this channel I wouldn't even have been aware of it because its never been mentioned elsewhere
-
Correction Mark, the Class 52 locomotive could pull the 15 armored carriages just fine. They need the extra one due to Göring's weight.
-
As a Locomotive Driver for the DB myself, it is realy interesting to see what happend to these Traincars. Thank you for keeping the history alive to every little part that contributed to it!
