As a Canadian, we really do appreciate it when travellers list the province of the city you're in. Our country is way too massive to just group all of us in as one. Incredible video, Jeb! It gave me a lot of tips for when I eventually book my own Rocky Mountaineer trip!

@@henryjohnson-ville3834 Cool? Mostly I was trying to support kaykrausman. Should be noted though that Jeb is the CEO and owner of one of the world's most successful sales training companies, so $2,250 for him is a lot more...expendable...than it is to you, me, and Mr. McGee. That money is a once-a-year vacation, or even once-a-decade vacation, to most people, but to him it's an impromptu trip. It's pretty awesome though seeing someone spend lots of money on amazing trips like this rather than on penthouse-suite stays and yacht sailing around NY Harbor like so often featured by well, the wealthy elite. Cheers to you, Jeb, for using your money to entertain and provide original content! Thank you for being you!

We did this reverse route last year at about the same time. I'm envious of your cooler weather and Fall foliage. There was a heat wave and the Fall colors were not so vibrant. That being said, the Rocky Mountaineer was amazing. We also booked the Gold Leaf and were not disappointed. After the two days on the train, we continued with 6 touring days in Jasper and Banff and flew home from Calgary. It was a wonderful trip to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. The Canadian hospitality was amazing and the food... Chef's kiss! We want to go back and spend more time in the Jasper area.

The staff were amazing, the views of the beautiful landscape of British Columbia and Alberta and the whole trip is something I will never forget. I would definitely recommend travelling from Vancouver as it leaves behind the built up busy city and heads out into the beautiful country and into the mountains.

All the people seem VERY HAPPY! Before I die I DO want to try this. As the world evolves into chaos it seems the RM is a way to separate yourself from the turmoil that is overtaking our planet.

Great video. The reason you switched to CN tracks at Kamloops is because CP and CN operate a one way system. All westbound trains use CN tracks and all eastbound use the CP tracks. East of Kamloops CN and CP split. With CN going via the Yellowhead Pass and CP via the Eagle Pass in the Monashee mountains, Rogers Pass in the Selkirk mountains and Kicking Horse Pass in the Rocky Mountains.

Between Kamloops and Mussion/Abottsford (east of Vancouver) , there was an agreement signed a few decades ago to use each railway's single track in one direction. The effective double tracking of the stretch increased each railway's capacity (so both railways benefited from sharing) compared to each railways stuck to their single track with few sidings due to the steep Fraser/Thompson river canyons for most of the stretch. So you are using CN track from Kamloops not because it is more scenic, but because it is the designated westbound track. At Cisco Crossing they did build a CN to CP (northbound) or CP to CN (southbound) interchange track. This helps in cases where one side is washed out and still allows a few trains per day to travel.

The spiral tunnels are fascinating. The Amtrak route across the Oregon Cascades has several tunnels and one of them is a spiral (180-degree) tunnel. All by itself it can be disorienting west (north)-bound when you go from heading west on fairly flat ground to heading east on the side of a mountain looking down into a canyon. Can't imagine what several of these in a row would do to my head 😵...Great Video adding another entry to my Bucket List.... ...and YES to the houseboat!!!! 🛥🛥🛥 I vote for several days on a houseboat on Shasta Lake in NorCal.

The trains are amazing and look comfortable, the food delicious, I admire the staff (that we can't see) for making their clients comfortable and thoroughly enjoy the experience. I have always thought God blessed CANADA with so much beauty. It is incredible that man build those long rails, tunnels and bridges, and yes thanks to them we can enjoy the journey. When the world is in turmoil; just watch the Brooks videos pure joy and so delightful ♥

Holy cow, the view 30:10 for that sign off! That shot from the bridge is one of the best city perspectives I’ve ever seen, nothing short of spectacular. A perfect contrast to the incredible nature you both shared with us. Well done, y’all should win an award for that.

When I traveled this train in the 1990s I did a round-trip Vancouver-Calgary. Yes the train went all the way to Calgary then. I stayed @ the Palliser Hotel next to the train station in Calgary. I'm a 'train-a-holic' have traveled over 250,000 km by train since 1955 mostly here in Canada (51x on "The Canadian") an entire month of May 1987 in Australia ("Indian-Pacific","The Queenslander" & other long-distance trains) & 2 weeks in June 1990 in UK when British Rail still existed. Cheers from Vancouver.

On Houseboat lake: This area of Shuswap Lake was hard hit by forest fires and massive evacuations all summer, so seeing no houseboats is understandable as the whole season was a total writeoff (and for many, litterally). The province's emergency orders prohibited tourism in region because all available hotel rooms were needed to hosue evacuues. The CPKC tracks were closed for a number of days due to risk of fire. EDIT: Ok, you mentioned the fires later on on video.

Thank you for acknowledging the contributions of Chinese labourers in constructing the railroad. After its construction, the Chinese were treated very poorly and were discouraged from settling via a head tax and then eventually banned completely via an Exclusionary Act in the 1920s. It wasn't repealed until after WWII.

Amazing content and really makes me want to go on an adventure like that. One question - HOW did you achieve the POV shots from "above" or "the top of the train" itself? As a famous content creator, did they have a special observation are filming area they allowed you to use? The footage really adds something wonderful to the viewing experience.

The first day we had windows facing forward since we were in the first row. And other footage we probably took from the observation platform, nothing special for filming. Thanks for watching!

We live in the Bow Valley east of Banff. We never tire of our wonderful environment. Happy you could share “The Rocks” with your viewers. It is also a very pleasant drive Banff to Vancouver. Best drive for scenery is Between Lake Louise and Jasper! Thanks for your video.
