Will, your video is really well thought-out and well edited. Thanks for posting it. I am curious, though, wondering why so many people really hate riding Amtrak and write really bad reviews of it, especially on TripAdvisor. I think they approach it with the wrong attitude. It's not the Uptown Hilton, or first class flying. It's a train, with bumps and stops and slow pace and sometimes forcing you to do without things like hot water or working toilets! If you can get yourself into the pace and put up with the inconveniences, it sounds like the way to go. I rode cross country in the days far before Amtrak came along, and still have fond memories, like a full turkey dinner in August in a dining car with white linen tablecloths! Thanks again and keep havin' fun. I have subscribed.
@WillEdmond4 жыл бұрын
I agree. Most people approach it with a bad attitude. We live in a society where people want everything fast and quick. Amtrak isn't that. You are suppose to relax and enjoy the scenery and the small hiccups that sometimes comes with train travel. If I'm delayed, it dIdn't matter to me on a train because I've planned time for a delay just in case. You had an awesome experience back in the day as well. Glad you are following the journey.

The gentleman who explained the situation with Superliner equipment being unable to go through the Hudson River tunnels is correct. They are too big. However, NJ Transit's Bombardier-made bi-level cars were designed to be able to fit into the tunnels, so while Amtrak can't run Superliners into NY Penn Station, NJ Transit does run bi-level trains into PSNY. Another problem for the Superliners is that they only have doors capable of serving low platforms. Penn Station only has high platforms.

The chairs fold lean back quite a ways and if you use your luggage as a foot rest you can get mostly horizontal. I love watching the landscape roll by, love the quiet meditative quality. Bring a book and just chill - low stress, lovely views, quiet and way more comfortable than flying. Oh, and the rocking is not nauseating, like boats. Just gentle rocking 😴😛

Sorry if you already done it -- maybe even done a video about it -- but New Orleans to LA (the Sunset Limited) !!! Do it! We live in Houston, so we started there -- and there are possibilities, I think, from Chicago to San Antonio where some of the cars on that train join up with the train coming from New Orleans to continue on to LA. The station in SA is near the Alamodome and the station in LA is awesome (we've all seen it it TV shows and /or Movies) -- and it's in a cool part of LA from which to start a journey around ALL there is to see and experience there ! AND, I very much enjoy your videos -- I've only just "found" you (watching videos about Ashevillle, NC). You're energy is very positive -- love it!

Fellow rail enthusiast, here, and a new subbie. I enjoyed your vlog so much, from the thorough content to your vivacious spirit and humor. That was so cool when you waltzed right up into the sleeper car. I remember, back in November, I was on an East Coast Amtrak train and we were on a smoking break/fresh-air break at Albany, and across the platform was a train waiting in the station and headed for Chicago. I was so excited that the conductor of that train gave me a private tour of the sleeping car. I was sitting down, spinning around (as you did in your vid) -- oh man, so much room! I can't wait to do my first overnight train: Empire Builder, for sure. I plan to do my trip via Amtrak Vacations; after riding across the Midwest to the Pacific, there's a motorcoach to Vancouver (from Seattle, I think), and then from Vancouver to Toronto by VIA Rail Canada. But I also want to ride the Crescent because you showed us how cool it is, AND I've got to see New Orleans!!! Thank you for the excellent adventure by rail on Amtrak!

Yehh you made it to new orleans. This made me so happy. So happy you got to fulfill your childhood dream too! And the conversation with the trails and rails guide was cool. Can't wait to plan a trip soon and follow more of your Amtrak adventures.

Your positive attitude and excitement are infectious! Just about everything I have read about Amtrak has been horrible and negative. This is one of the few positive reviews. Yours is by far the best. I have never rode the train, but I want to try it. I am also in Atlanta and wanted a review from the Atlanta station. I am now excited to try it because of your review. Thank you!

Thanks for the love LaTonya! The train ride from Atlanta to New Orleans is a breeze. And it’s super affordable. I did coach class and only spent $130! With the prices of gas you can’t beat that. Hope you check out my new Amtrak video.

Will my father worked for Southern Pacific in Arizona. Rode a train recently. Hadn't ridden a train in about 30 years or more. I love train rides. Love your enthusiasm. Looking forward to seeing your videos. God bless.

Great video Brother Will! I've always loved trains since I was a young boy. I'm now retired and going on my first Amtrak ride with my queen from Mississippi to New Jersey. I can't wait! LOL
