Fun video, since the new owner there are less video of this great castle. Love the way you embrace new foods. Oh and there is an ancient floorplan of the tower. Just google it. the back and sides were added in the mid 1800s. The back door wasn't the green door but the second set of doors when you enter the foyer before you go up the stairs. That should explain alot. Also the walls are thick except between the two rooms. oh oh hope there wasn't someone next door. lol If anyone out there know where there is more video or floorplans please let me know Thanks

For one of the Amtrak routes I've taken the past few years, the train has to stop and switch engines from electric to diesel. That's another bizarre thing that only happens in America

About the thing where things never work out because you put in so much effort, like thats just what always happens. I just realized the exact same thing happened to me in singapore. i did a 2 hr hike in the heat and had planned on going to a specific hawker center for a specific dish afterwards as a treat. thing is the hawker center was in the burbs and also the specific stall was like...at one point pretty popular but then closed down and then I found an article that said the owners were rumored to have opened up again somewhere else. and because the new location was in the burbs, i needed to walk another hour after the hike + take a 30min bus ride to get there. anyway i make it there and of course the specific hawker stall i was looking for either wasn't there, changed their name, or no longer sold the specific dish i wanted to try. 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂still ended up with a good meal though bc its hard to find a bad meal in singapore. but its just another piece of evidence for your little theory lol

Que ave se escucha en el fondo ???

Eric, as a tall, tattooed white guy, you 100% fit in. You are gorgeous and sure to be approached a lot with attention md modeling offers.

@ Kyde, this bathroom girl story is crazy. Seems like she was in some kind of Trance' not doing anything but standing or on phone... DAMN 🤔

この女性は頭が良いですね。

y'all gonna have me ordering tuna tomorrow. Eric got me at "butter." listen i butter my toast when i eat tuna ok 💕

Looks like you had a great day! But you weren’t seeing the World Trade Center building 😞

The seat paper system has its flaws. A passenger stole mine once when he got on, walked back a few rows and put it behind his seat. When the conductor asked for my ticket again, thankfully other passengers were able to vouch for me that he took it. 🤦‍♂

You think thats bad? walk down a block to NY Penn, board an Nj transit commuter, and prepare your butthole. They only show late, delayed/canceled, and when its supposed to depart (not when it actually departs). If you do not have the app on your phone good luck. Oh and if you dont activate your ticket street level odds are you will not have connection in the terminal. If that ticket is not activated the staff will throw a tantrum, they do not mess around and will call the transit police if you give them any lip. Need to use a bathroom? Well you have a 50% chance that things clogged and overflowing.. Ive been taking the Nj coast line 3 times a week for about a decade, ive seen things.... horrible things...

So glad you didn't try to give us all the facts and pretend to be some kind of a travel show, but more a laid back take on the city.

日米同盟があるのだから、アムトラックにJRのノウハウを吸収させれば良いのでは…。加えて、日本の鉄道産業をアメリカに移植すれば、いくらでもアメリカの鉄道産業を復活させられるのでは…。

you can ring my 🔔 Bellz by troy boi merry crispymas to my fav KZbin couple! miss you!!

I live in Tokyo But am originally from Florida last year I rode the Brightline bullet train from Orlando to Miami Honestly it's nicer and newer and bigger than the shinkansen

Lol❤ and sigh and rage and yeah. l ride the Oakland to Sacramento train sometimes and usually everything goes smoothly But l did get trapped in a train bathroom once not fun 🤪 lm glad the bathroom door lock worked for you Kyde❤

When my parents and my sister and her family went to Disney World for the first time, they took Amtrak from NY (Rochester) to Florida. It was winter, and there was a snow storm in NY, but that wasn't a problem. What was a problem was when the engine died about 3 hours into the journey, and it took many more hours sitting on an unheated train to get a new engine. Then they were told to get on the wrong train in NYC, ended up having to stay overnight in DC, and missed an entire day at Disney (which Disney at the time refunded, thankfully). My poor dad loves trains, but my sister swore she'd never use Amtrak again. I don't know the full story, but Amtrak is subsidized by the government, which some people say keeps them from improving - they are guaranteed money. I think if it wasn't subsidized, Amtrak would fail. We don't have the culture of train travel, unfortunately, and Amtrak is bare bones :(

These "cookies" look like a thing you can buy in germany and are called amerikaner. Coincidence?

Sounds like any other day with "deutsche bahn" 😂 if you ever visit gemrany please do another funny video to roast the trainsystem or just avoid it at all. Lots of love from germnay !

I've never taken an American train, which is kinda weird since I can't see. Lots of Greyhounds though! Idk, comparing Amtrak to Denmark's train system is just sorta comical. We're nowhere near Japan in terms of comfort and efficiency, but so much better than this xD Although we also have the Train Suicides more often than it seems like America does, which is sad af. Glad the bathroom and sandwich were good, at least! And an hour for all that isn't terrible. Thanks for sharing!

We take this train (NE regional) all the time. The only seats that are assigned are business class. Coach class doesn't have any assigned seats and you get on and find a seat anywhere. There is a quiet car which is also coach and like it sounds they ask for you to not have conversations so that it will be quiet. There is only ever 1 BC car per trip. Alot of good this info is now. :) Normally it takes 30minutes to switch out the engines. We'll sometimes go into Union Station which is normally cool. They'll maybe shorten that if they are running behind.

Took the train from Kansas City to Chicago and it took over 3 hours extra because we had to keep stopping for freight trains. They use the same tracks and are considered more important, more profitable, It was a nightmare day of bad wifi and delays. Way better experiences in China, Taiwan, and Japan.

Is this the train from the world's most developed country that will send humans to the moon?

🥪🥪🥪

II do love following you two out and about 🙂

アムトラックなかなか良いじゃないですか。エリックさんはどうしても日本と比べてフラストレーションがたまってるみたいですが。国によって事情が違うからそこまで違和感ありませんでした。日本はある意味お客さんに過保護なくらいですね。時刻に関してはカナダやメキシコなど国際列車もあるアメリカでは日本のようには簡単にはいかない気がします。素敵な動画ありがとうございます。

With regard to food cars on Japanese trains, when I lived in Tokyo from 1978-85 the shinkansen always had a full restaurant car with sit-down dining. Most other long distance express trains had buffet cars. That started to change a few years after that when the whole "ekiben" thing took off, and people took to buying boxed lunches and bringing them onto the train. The Shinkansen dropped to cart service (even that now scrapped,) and the buffet cars disappeared. However, as you would know, there's now a plethora of gourmet restaurant style tourist trains in Japan.

Ok..I'm an Australian and I was in Manhattan, maybe 15 years ago.. we stayed at hotel Pennsylvania ( it's no longer there) opposite Penn Station. I have no recollection of there being any significant issues with the rail system. We bought our tickets, looked at the maps, followed the coloured lines to our platform, got on our train, followed the coloured coded legends on the maps, as to what platform to get off for connecting trains yadda yadda.. maybe it has changed since then? 🤷🏼‍♀️

And dont forget the train track in the USA is built cargo trains!

Cool a usa train.

american trains are so fascinating. so grey, so industrial, looks like it'd be efficient but apparently isnt?

Hey I had to deal with them like a week ago

わお！ 中央線や高崎線の話が出てくるとは驚いた！ JR東日本の電車に乗る事が多いんだろうね。 あと、彼らは日本では電車を使うのに、アメリカの電車は初めて乗るって事も驚いた。 でも、人身事故や列車の不具合での遅延などは駅にあるモニターで確認できるし、乗る路線が遅れている場合は車掌や駅員がどういう理由で遅れているのか案内しますよね。 アメリカの駅のプラットホームには、電光掲示板の行先案内とか、遅延が何分などの表示が無いのかな・・・

lol, Murica

Yeah pretty common Iran story. Unfortunately

I have seen people standing for 2 hours on the non reserved train from Kyoto to Tokyo.

食べ物、トイレ、その他の話…1番楽しかったのは、2人がずっと小さな声で話していた事lol まるで日本人w👍👍👍

I rode the Amtrak California Zephyr many times over a decade between Emeryville, CA and Chicago, IL. It's a 3-day trip through some of the best scenery the US has to offer. It was almost always 2-4 hours late except one time it was 4 hours early. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, engine failure, hit an elk, shitter full, rail bridge fire, criminal kicked off in the middle of nowhere, and so on. The worst was when the train was 12 hours out of Chicago and had to go back to swap conductors due to union hour rules hitting their limit during a delay. Despite all that I loved every trip, roomy seats, great views, and nice people. Much better than flying. The biggest downside specific to that line is no Wi-Fi.

You can reserve seating here in the UK but most people don't. Many times I've had to stand in the hallway on an hour long journey. Our train system is pretty shite and expensive.

You used to pay to receive a service. Now you just pay.

And not a vending machine in sight
