The tables are not footrest… this is so annoying!!!
@kingbradentucky 2 күн бұрын
Yeah, I do understand that. In my defense I have some chronic pain issues and sometimes I need to put my legs up. I know that sucks but I do try to be considerate and do it away from others and wipe down the area they rested. It sucks, but not sure what to do sometimes.

@ I’m so sorry to hear about your leg . I’m please to hear that you wipe down after👏. I was in the lounge a few days ago and witnessed someone left a bit of dirt on the table, totally grossed me out.

@@Oneeka220 no worries. I shouldn't film it. It does set a bad example. I'm glad you pointed it out. The pain can suck but it's why I got into Amtrak travel a couple years back and that's been great.

Thank you. I will edit and post full landscape video for this trip at some point. So far from this trip I posted the Capitol Limited DC to Chicago and California Zephyr to Reno in full landscape. I did a 9 leg trip around the US so have lots of stuff to edit and port. They are long from videos for the Amtrak train lovers.

I just returned from a round trip on the Zephyr, repeating a trip I made twice about 25 years ago. The service hasn’t changed much, the cars may be a bit upgraded, the service crew was wonderful, but the overall experience was ruined by the condition of the tracks. Lurching, swaying, bumping, especially on the Chicago-Denver section, but on the entire trip, a smooth ride was generally the exception. I don’t recall anything like this a quarter century ago, which leads me to believe that maintenance on the tracks is low priority for the RRs. Because of the motion, passengers elected to move about during delay or station stops, causing crowding in the hallways. Thanks to the car porter, who provided wonderful service to me in my roommette, despite the bad conditions. Sadly, this will probably be my last Amtrak trip, because I don’t want to face days and nights feeling I’m caught in the bed of a pickup truck driving on a rutted dirt road.

Somewhere on the backdrop add a photo or paint a Sears, I mean Willis Tower. It instantly sets the scene, and you know some cool Chicagoland Metra is coming your way.

I have a video on somewhere (I'll find the link) where I made up that Southern and UP were gonna merge, and their business trains were in St. Louis. I painted the Arch and just had it on a background wall. Scott

Not really. A business class seat sure, but first class on Acela is pretty overrated in my opinion. For shorter distances the NE Regional, is maybe 5-10% slower than Acela and about 40-60% cheaper depending on when you buy your ticket.
