🇺🇸5 Day Sleeper Train Journey Across America | New York to San Francisco (part 1)🇺🇸

I'm Brazilian, that is, I'm also part of the American continent, and yet much of the United States is still mythological to other countries. In that bus scene I felt like I was witnessing a painting by Evgeny Lushpin or Linden Frederick. This countryside neighborhood aura is very beautiful, there is also a lot of that in Brazil, but in its own way. And our school buses are different haha

It's crazy how much cheaper and superior in every way the train trips are in Japan.

[@SFGal9]

When I see vids of capsule hotels / trains in Japan, I'm so embarrassed for the US. $1k for this ride here. Expensive. Gross/dirty/disgusting, emblematic of many things, customer service, morals, values, on and on...

[@izzieluv]

I think part of it has to do with how commonly it is used as a method of travel in each country. I could be wrong, but it seems to be a more common way to travel in Japan for just everyday type travel where as in the US it is more of a novelty and you take a train specifically to travel by train. Now I will say considering that it is a bit weird that they haven't upgraded more to make things nicer and more luxurious, but I'm guessing that has to do with revenue.

[@margaretstokely9016]

yes, we are being cheated here in the US.

[@thinkbeforyouvote]

@@SFGal9 You had me until the morals/values shite. Your soapbox agenda has nothing to do with this. It's corporate greed and the airlines crushing any hope of high speed rail in the united states.

[@StarboardPitotTube]

@@izzieluv Yeah about the upgrades on luxury multiple companies have tried that but they end up not being popular. You mentioned that people ride trains on a daily basis so the vast majority of riders are travelling for business, not for vacation. That being said a lot of Japanese transportation KZbin channels don't feature many of the higher-end tourist oriented trains that run in the countryside of Japan. JR Kyushu's trains are especially impressive in this regard!

[@IslemTav]

While in the US, never fear asking for a refund, a change of room, or an upgrade in a situation like this one. 99% of the time, they will accommodate your request! They want to keep you as a customer and for them it’s nothing to make sure you are happy with the service.

Since you were paying the most expensive room rate, you should have asked to switch to the ViewlinerII. There's no excuse for that pounding door. I'm glad the trip overall wasn't a total disaster, though. There's a reason why most Americans don't travel by train (and we totally envy your system). You could have flown to Chicago for a lot less $$$ - like for $86.00 non-stop one way on Delta. The remaining $914 would have bought you an amazing hotel room. Thanks for taking us with you; it was very educational!

Going on trains on journeys which can be done in 3 hours by plane is dumb

[@larkmacgregor3143]

@@sneedsfeed757 It depends on WHY you are going by train. I probably could have walked from Flåm to Oslo faster than the train ride took (we lost electric power at literally the highest point of the journey and were delayed a few hours), but then I would have missed the most amazing rail-side scenery in the world, which is why I went by train in the first place. If the idea is simply to get from point to point, then yeah, go by plane. But if you are going to see the countryside, a plane isn't going to do that for you. It's a shame our trains suck so badly.

[@abenm613]

Позвольте-ка а разве в японских поездах имеются спальные вагоны? В скоростных наверняка нет. Слышал я что у них там есть и обычные поезда, в том числе со спальными вагонами. Однако об этом мало информации в сети, да и не факт что всё что блестит - непременно золото (а всё что японское - непременно отменного качества). Что же касается купе, то хотелось бы знать сколько может стоить билет от Москвы до, скажем, Волгограда в персональное двухместное купе (которое не нужно делить с кем-либо посторонним) с туалетом-душевой внутри, и так чтобы проводник подходил по нажатию кнопки. Даже если такая услуга на РЖД существует и стоит номинально ниже $1000, подозреваю что с зарплатой среднего россиянина это не особо по карману.

[@natashazima_ya]

@@abenm613 на этом канале показаны японские поезда со спальными вагонами. Что касается ржд, посмотрите сами, условный маршрут Москва-Кисловодск 14-20 тыс руб, это св полностью(если купить билет заранее), вы можете там ехать один и да проводник будет приходить по нажатию кнопки)) и фирменные поезда у нас выглядят в разы лучше и чище👍🏼

[@abenm613]

@@natashazima_ya, я не спорю что остальному миру есть чему поучиться у России в плане качества пассажирских поездов, причём именно традиционных а не всяких там скоростных как в Японии (кстати спасибо за ссылку на информацию о тамошних спальных поездах). Но это не означает в США поезда действительно настолько низкого качества как некоторые пишут. Я вполне себе доволен американскими поездами (в том числе и широкими сидячими креслами, в которых вполне комфортно ехать ночью по доступной цене), хоть, разумеется, хотелось бы чтобы они были ещё лучше, а главное - чтобы их было больше (а то ведь на такую огромную страну здесь их как-то маловато, мягко выражаясь). Однако, безусловно, ничто не может сравниться с поездами России и Беларуси (да и, наверное, Украины тоже), с купейными и плацкартными вагонами, со стаканами в подстаканниках и т.д. Этому, согласен, по-настоящему равных нет. А цены? 14-20 тыс.р. - это нынче приблизительно 200-300 USD. Неужели за такую цену можно полностью занять целое купе? Здорово если так. Другое дело - для многих ли россиян (особенно вне Москвы и Питера) это так уж дёшево?

[@edching908]

After watching many travel vlogs on the Shinkansen, suddenly this so-called American "pleasure ride" is anything but luxurious to my eyes, and its features looking quite ordinary. And a pain to one's pocket too. All hail to Japanese kaizen! They never stopped improving.

[@abenm613]

Does any Japanese Shinkansen have sleeping accommodations? What? Shinkansens are too fast to need them? Well, America has an ever faster transit, it’s called an airliner.

[@strredwolf]

Awesome video. Yeah, the Viewliner I's are a bit old and getting replaced by the Viewliner II's here in the US, which... well, the build quality on the older ones is showing. Some folks have had success wedging a towel up against the connecting doors to quiet them during travel. The meals are the "Flex Dining" type. If you're taking a two-day sleeper from Chicago, you'll get a full kitchen experience on the Superliners.

I guess we see why that one door had a towel stuck in it. Maybe another towel could've saved us? At least it was sort of nice. I once took a similar sleeper train from Pittsburgh to Chicago, and then another sleeper from Chicago to Dallas. It was the cheapest way to move cross-country, since i can't drive. I had a roomette, though it didn't have a sink or toilet, which in retrospect i'm kind of grateful. And it's great to see you actually experience Chicago pizza!

5:25 That's the George Washington Bridge (famous for...the wrong reasons thanks to a certain former NJ governor causing traffic)! Connects Manhattan to New Jersey. And the cliffs by it are called the Palisades. Fall is the best time to see them because of the exceptional foliage. I lived in Westchester for the first eight years of my life, and we used to take the Metro North's Hudson Line along this route to the beautiful Grand Central Terminal often. Glad Moynihan Train Hall exists. Huge upgrade compared to being stuck in a stinky basement (or as one guy put it, "One entered the city like a god; one scuttles in now like a rat"). While we may never get the original Penn Station back, this Post Office building was designed by the same architect behind the old Penn Station, so it's close enough. Moynihan Train Hall is a perfect balance of the old and the new

Buy the Viewliner a drink - it just became legal! Anyway, back then, with two of us riding, the trip was around $350 or 46,000 (I'm sure there's a yen symbol around here somewhere...). ROUND TRIP. We got to see Union Station - very pretty - along the way. These days I don't travel at all. I love it, but I can't afford it. *sigh says my wallet* Perhaps I'll move to Japan! Oh - "Goodbye Tokyo".

Oh no I feel awful that the door was so noisy for you! At least it was just a one night trip 😭 Enjoy another visit to America! Someday, I recommend the Amtrak "Downeaster" route. It goes along the upper east coast, the views are beautiful in autumn. 💕

I’ll say it again, when you spend that much money on a room, if there is something that isn’t the way you feel it should be, you need to speak up. They may, or may not know that the door is a problem unless you bring it to someone’s attention. You deserved better. Thanks, though, for all of your wonderful videos. I’m binging on them all day today, and probably into the weekend.

I'm late to watching this video, but I am amused because I live right by the route this train goes, and less than a minute down the road from my house is an overpass on which this train passes every night. I was 60 seconds away and didn't get to say hi 😆 Also, if you search on KZbin for the railcam on the Virtual Railfan channel from Fairport, NY, you can see the 49 pass by between 11-11:30 pm EST/EDT (if it is on time, anyway). I have always wondered what this train was like to ride, so I really enjoyed this video. I would love to take it to New York City as I live on the opposite side of the state in the Western New York region. Maybe someday. At least I know to book a Viewliner II room if I ever do!

Remember there is a towel at first on the rumbling door? That was there to reduce the gap so the door isn't shaking hard and thus rumbling towards the journey 🥲 but I guess you remove that because it's not on place 🥲🥲 well I am glad this is not much disastrous like last amtrak video 🥲🥲🥲 but the pizza looks so goodddd 😋🤤

Nice work Solo Solo! Bummer about the door, and the food looked a tad questionable... But what a beautiful shirt! High neck, good quality. I cannot find such a good one in the US nor in France. But fries with pizza? Heart-stopping! Hope you survived that... Thanks again for another wonderful Video.

That's the GW, The George Washington Bridge, to New Jersey.
