52 Hours on Train Across America in a Sleeper Car!

[@DownieLive]

Such a fun way to travel! Glad you got to do this with your daughter. I love traveling with family. Cheers!

[@valatina8147]

ikr

[@mcinfopeek]

DownieLive travels by train! (i watched all of the episodes btw, keep it up)

[@zacwong]

Your videos are awesome!!

[@dutchvanderlinde154]

Love the videos!

[@ecrails]

yo downie

[@frenchy5487]

I’m 20 and whenever my family (12 people) go on vacation we always take the train. You meet so many people and see so many things you otherwise wouldn’t. But I will say if you’re going longer than a day a sleeper car is a MUST

[@ScottWallace5]

Great father/daughter trip video! I think everyone should ride a train at least once in their lifetime. Truly a great and relaxing experience!

[@pokineusz3501]

being a European and watching you exploring the magical insights of a train is like watching tribal people visiting a sushi bar for the first time :D

[@toootankhamooon]

😂 emotional damage 😂

[@goosegg8683]

Being tribal people is so good, pure happiness 😊

[@abhinavd_lol]

yeah same dude, I’m an Indian and I’m travelling in these kinds of trains for like the past 20-25 years

[@dron2336]

As a fellow European, I can confirm. I must admit our trains are much better than that shown in this video.

[@danielros7798]

yes but then a very bad version of passenger trains. Amtrak is just so horrible compared to European trains

[@HansMilling]

I went from Denmark to Rome (Italy) in 1994 as a school trip. It was a 37 hour train ride, mostly due to the many stops and like yours that other/faster trains had to pass so on to a side track waiting and then moving again. Especially the Alps was a beautiful sight. For two days after the trip, I had the sound and motion of the train in my body, it was very strange. Very beautiful video that shows the ever changing landscape in America. You should do the same trip in Europe, that would be awesome.

[@Tully3674]

IMO< having taken Amtrak a few times between Colorado, Arizona and California, my biggest gripe is the lack of general maintenance on the trains. Your video confirms what I've experienced. It's the little things that make the difference in a pleasurable trip vs a tolerant trip.

[@pidnar9308]

@20:32 the expression on London's face reminded me of my childhood I used to hate my parents when they say "waaaake-uuuup, time for school" But when they say "today we are taking you to your grandparents, you have to skip school for 2 days", they become my best friends for those 2 days 😃😂

[@mholtebeck]

The coolest part of this trip is watching you with your daughter one-on-one for 50 hours. I was about her age the first time that I was one-on-one with my dad for an extended time, and it was huge in my life. One on one time (no sibling, no spouse) after 12 is so critical.

[@slidewaze]

I do enjoy your videos but this was even more fun than usual! Thank you for letting us live vicariously through your camera lens.

[@Deckyllama21]

I live in Eagle Colorado witch is 23 minutes away from Glenwood springs. When I saw that you stopped there I felt so happy to share our beautiful home with you

[@BayareaXotics]

Keep it up Dan I love your videos and entertainment ! The people of Colorado not afraid to show it!

[@jimbolia1234]

Hey! You're in my neck of the woods! Hope you like the cold SF bay area breeze. Love the contents that you make on the main and the family channels, wishing you and your crew nothing but continued success.

[@Sirens1003]

As a Railfan, I was waiting for videos like this to emerge on this channel. Glad you guys enjoyed it!

[@justinerodriguez1388]

Loved this video. I really enjoy watching videos you do with London. 🥰

[@catanddog6975]

That is one of the best videos you have ever made!👍🏼

[@thatguydylan314]

That looks like the train ride of dreams, the west coast is beautiful! Much prefer mountains and desert to plains and farmland out here in Illinois

[@thatguydylan314]

Now I've lived out here in California for 5 months...and I do not miss the farmland!

[@TrainiacTed]

Over the summer I rode the Zepher, you guys had the same conductor for the first part of the ride. There is a room bigger that sleeps 4, 2 Adults and 2 Children. The appetizers are not to good but everything else is ok, my favorite foods were, The French toast, the Mac and Cheese, and the Rigatoni. Nice video!

[@dexdavd]

the fact that LONDON was with u this time, 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻. Jst love watching her grow up from ababy LONDON to were she is now!

[@michaelarnold7698]

The next Robert Plant! You go man. Really enjoyed your video.

[@MikeThaiger]

Love that new Swedish hat you been wearing for a couple of vids. Love your family and wish you all the best for the new year from Sweden 🤗

[@GrimesFinds]

Lol the mooning ... thought that went out in the 90s or maybe that's just when I stopped doing it 😂

[@marynguyen2669]

London definitely needs to make it on more episodes. She’s too cute!

[@mr_jake.y8348]

Mr Dan you have some awesome kids. Love your channel keep up the good work.

[@gavineisen3597]

I think it’s so cool how special the Mississippi was to y’all. I live near Baton Rouge, Louisiana and cross the Mississippi all the time.

[@coolestera]

was so wholesome how the guy said "mom I made it! I'm on TV!!" haha

[@BostonRules1]

I took Amtrak on the Northeastern from DC to Richmond then Richmond back to Connecticut for a friends wedding in 2018. It was really nice having the views and relatively easy. Although I personally like the freedom of driving, it was good to not have to worry about traffic

[@jimaviation444]

I like the entire trip that you guys made it to SF! And also did you guys made to 'Vegas? Love the content! Keep it up!

[@banshee1133]

London has grown so much

[@tonyparisio4021]

I love this video! I always wondered about doing this sort of a trip. Thank you!

[@N0N0111]

Dad and London do always the best trips 12/10

[@beltrams]

In the older, "Heritage" car fleet that Amtrak used to use on the East Coast up to maybe 25 years ago, not only the showers but the toilets as well dumped right onto the tracks. There used to be a sign in the bathrooms asking people not to flush while the train was at a station.

[@southaussiegarbo2054]

Lol 😂

[@nashorn9745]

Go to France and this is still a thing and if you look at the track in a train station it’s full of toilet paper.

[@chrisdobrowolski2783]

There still is a sign in the bathroom that says prohibited to use the restroom when train is at the station.

[@jasonfoster7403]

Absolutely brilliant review. Still laughing at all the bare bums, haha

[@chrisdobrowolski2783]

Look it up on google, called Moon River, tradition on the Zephyr maybe not during winter time though.

[@FireCracker3240]

I've never been this early. Ever. I love train travel videos, so I'm excited!

[@itzrowz]

Wow thats such a nice experience for sure its worth 2,500 dollars I take Brightline from Miami usually but this is a whole different experience

[@Deckyllama21]

In fact it is called Grand junction because there is a junction between the Colorado and Arkansas River. But it continues to be the Colorado going through Utah, Arizona, Nevada, and California

[@banshee1133]

1:44 lol. The subtitle said "London's father"

[@Soren0]

This is awesome! Also, Ottumwa is close to where I live, how cool.

[@DoubleCTech]

I probably wouldn’t use the train for transport but I would love to go on it for the experience. Even if most of it is lack luster. At least the beautiful landscapes make up for it.

[@nashorn9745]

Amtrak is just to slow here were I live the train is overthinking everything on the road at 120mph. The train brings you to the center of town no problem parking plus you can do work on the train. And don’t have to drive.

[@jfpiv]

We've crossed the country in both kinds of sleeper rooms for years. The smaller room does actually have a toilet that folds open.

[@dannydanny9875]

Welcome to KZbin, London! 😀

[@kobyschechter8163]

As someone who lives along the Northeast Corridor I take Amtrak whenever I go to Washington DC. Super convenient and far less stressful and CHEAPER than flying. A flight from New York to Washington DC is an hour or less and I don’t want to have to go through security for an hour long flight. From New York Penn Station to Washington Union Station is 3 hours and 30 minutes. There’s no meals on the Northeast Regional trains so you have to bring your own food. They do have cafe cars where you can buy coffee and snacks.

[@MDTASHA0926]

I took this train back on sept 1st from Chicago to Emeryville. I was only able to do the roomette but it was also me. Wait until you get to western Nebraska.

[@banshee1133]

You should've pranked Leslie. London calling her saying she got left by the train. Lol

[@GrimesFinds]

Very cool. We have talked about doing this many times because I'm afraid to fly .

[@Panagiotis_P]

Well though technically planes are many times safer than car so if you consider that there ain't a reason to be scared

[@isabelapastoriza9920]

Welcome to San Fran! Hope I get to see you!

[@spxncxraviation]

@WHAT'S INSIDE? FAMILY love the videos you guys, keep it up

[@oliverwilson6904]

The Timelapse of the guy making the bed made me think of Casey Neistats plane videos, Great job

[@____admin]

Haven’t visited this channel since 2017

[@ClayKickersOutdoors]

What a journey, amazing video!

[@Lando_P1]

I’m jealous! I’ve gone across Britain on a train but not the US.

[@ryanplayz1979]

From 21:57 - 22:34 is in the town where I live, Benicia. So weird to see my small town in a video.

[@jimjones9693]

My Grama lived there

[@Krakkel]

You should try the Rocky Mountaineer

[@ZacharyBuhler]

I feel like it was a missed opportunity to not put a black censor bar on the dog’s bare bottom as well 😂

[@DIAMONDONDEMAND]

I rode the Texas Eagle and it was much better in all categories. Food was excellent and fresh. Service was amazing. Delays are normal and ours was only 3 hours

[@THEBACKSTER]

Took a train from Harrisburg, Pa to Philadelphia, Pa when I was 10 or 11. I've been a Pa resident all my life, but man you fall asleep so easily though

[@surfntrucks]

I think you missed an opportunity to make What’s Inside videos with London while she was the same age as Lincoln. Lincoln is growing up and is busy with sports and school. He can always come back when he is not busy but you should make more content with London.

[@teslameccano9046]

When will the what’s inside backpack be back in stock

[@jadian0460]

13:50 The reason you can’t see anything in the night is: because the lights in the train are on your eyes can not get used to the dark

[@jared6238]

His daughter is beautiful! I've only ever seen lincoln.

[@carolinebray82]

I took the train w my mom when I was 15 and it was amazing I wouldn't of omitted it then, but I do now! And loved it, from Denver Colorado to San Fran, what a trip! Welcome back any time to Colorado inside family !! W out the 🐻 butts bahaha! Why do people do that 😂🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

[@icebergplayz]

Sick!!! I really want to ride on a sleeper.

[@grimethatbindsus]

Hey Dan, I just did the sleeper from NYC to Chicago and that was 24 hours. also Made a YT Vid, IT's an adventure at first for sure. But Bless you for such a long trip with your Daughter. Gotta Ask though, Would you do it again??? LOL

[@EBaker0129]

The blueberry cheese cake rocks!!!

[@carterwheeler7910]

i love this video so so so muck thank you for making it

[@joannabaran-glazer9267]

If you go to Chicago again You should go to bridgeview it is a Pretty cool town You should come visit bridgeview I live here In Chicago Bridgeview IL

[@pbstarwars9596]

I stayed in a similar sleeper room when my family and I took the auto train from Maryland to Florida to visit some family that live in Florida.

[@Ratyz1]

Great video as always

[@zwendynesen5780]

I haven't seen London in a while

[@benjaminlargo8295]

7:24 7:28 Skittles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😁😁

[@pi-sx3mb]

That is the decades-old model of sleeper car. In my experience they are really beat up. The newer rolling stock they are in the process of replacing these with is supposedly much nicer.

[@moneybankgray]

OML The bums thing is so dang funny

[@chrisdobrowolski2783]

Look up Moon River fir Amtrak. You will know how it started.

[@danielros7798]

As a European this is very weird to watch. Flying to get on a train!? And just being completely obsssed with how trains work and look

[@zeusfitter007]

Come to India and try such trains here. More lively and fun. Clean if you spend the right amount.

[@chrishoyt3032]

You should do the Coast Starlight....same if not better views from Seattle to LA

[@daveedmonds9717]

5:38 Take heed to that

[@dragonbros.7229]

the tow truck joke was funny

[@davidmccoyjr8147]

Emeryville,California. Where Pixar Animation Studios is located.😉

[@Mark-ey2lj]

These trains look extremely outdated after riding the trains in Europe this summer.

[@summoner1451]

Because they are. The only trains the US cares about is freight trains. It's a shame.

[@TheBenghaziRabbit]

ah good ole Amtrak.

[@billreal76]

Did y'all feel a relief when you set foot on solid ground after the moving and rolling train?

[@slimcatandme]

Awesome trip ❤️

[@004Aviation]

This is going to be a fun one, I can tell already!

[@MGEE8572]

When i saw the broken table I said 'Fix it Dan' but then I remembered you don't fix things you break things.

[@kaisbigmagic6562]

Bear season not bear butts😂🤣

[@Tbh_Banana]

i can only imagine when the train hits an animal and the blood goes up through the shower drain 💀

[@vivaanuttamchandani6992]

I love your videos ❤❤❤

[@Levantarrr]

Let’s talk about how Dan wanted his steak well done bro

[@DevonMopiedmont1143]

If you booked a plane ticket expecting to make a few hour connection with a multi day train and miss that is on you 😂

[@Trainman-xm3wd]

if you enjoyed this trip try riding Amtrak's Auto Train

[@hridhayeshgr]

Nothing beats IRCTC 😌

[@inderpreetsinghdhillon5284]

In India u can get 5 star train roon in just 700 dollar and u get a king size bed and full meal pack breakfast , lunch , dinner

[@tong.clement]

6:07 yeah probably not safe as i heard from some sources that that space is often designed to crumple first in a train crash?

[@dmo-ra1655]

Hey Einstein what do you think will happen in a plane crash.

[@j_c771]

You have to visit Europe the trains here are way more modern: silent (electrical), bigger windows, cheaper, more flexibility,...

[@luxon4]

man $2500 for a 50 hour trip vs like a 200$ 3 hour plane ride, and the train has gov subsidies too. starting to understand why high speed rails never took off in the US

[@dannydanny9875]

3:52 haha I hope that wasn't intentional!!!

[@mjfreespirit]

You should take Lincoln on the Empire Builder this winter.

[@Daniel-uj1nu]

Incredible 💯

[@thestimp1]

"yahoo" how dare you sir!

[@randomcritic3652]

12:28 if 8/10 is "fantastic", how would you describe 10/10?

[@josephferdinando1065]

18:56 It’s YooHoo, not YaHoo. lol
