Amtrak Crescent from Atlanta to New Orleans COACH and BUSINESS CLASS REVIEW

Since I was 5 years old I’ve always wanted to ride a train and you get to ride with me! Comment below if you LOVE trains and if have rode Amtrak before!

[@spoonmanknows]

Right?! this dude is wholesome as hell. I took the train from Chicago to New Orleans after my grandmother insisted because that is how she travelled from Chicago to her grandparents farm wayyyy down in Mississippi. It was one of the best travel experiences that I have had. Also was so cool to experience what my grandmother had experienced 60 plus years later.

We took the Crescent from Atlanta to New Orleans back in 2016. It was relaxing, comfortable, and the 12+ hour ride didn't seem half as long. I remember thinking to myself, "THIS is the ONLY way to travel!" Go Amtrak!

[@tomg8518]

Will, We enjoyed your excitement taking your first train. Since retirement we have had time to take the Empire Builder to Seattle, Edmonds a suburb. A great trip. The wife saw elk on the mountain side going through Glacier National Park. The scenery was beyond belief, except for the plain states. Flat but still beautiful. Oh BTW wave when you go through Fargo to our friends there. We have recently taken the City of New Orleans to New Orleans. Stayed for 2 days then on the Sunset Limited to San Antonio stayed for 2 days and finished up on the Texas Eagle to Chicago. What a trip!!! We hope you get time to see the Aquarium when your in New Orleans. And if you are a WW2 buff make sure you catch the action at WW2 museum. Thanks for sharing.

[@gmaneis]

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.

[@WillEdmond]

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. Thanks again.

[@crowfoot1199]

Great video! Lots of good info. They do bring the lights down in the evening, but not til later. I looooove trains. I took the Seattle-LA Coast Starlight (I think it was called) in coach and really enjoyed it, despite the lack of a bed. 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 😴😛

Thanks Will. I was glad to see your recent video of the Crescent. I recently learned that dining service had been discontinued on the Crescent and other East coast routes in September, 2019. I was glad to see you still had access to the Cafe car. We're planning a trip this fall on the Crescent from Gainesville, GA to New Orleans and from there to San Antonio on the Sunset. I'm still trying to decide if having the Roomette as opposed to a Coach seat is worth it and I think it is since there will be two of us. You did a great job on this project and it helped me a lot.

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!

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!

I rode Amtrak a lot as a kid but only a few times as an adult. I love it though! Just don't be in a hurry 😆

I always dreamed of it and finally got to do it. I literally just got off the Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle 1 hour ago. That video will be our Sunday. Thanks for watching and always supporting.

@@WillEdmond the Empire Builder is what I always rode but from St. Paul to Pennsylvania! With 8 hours to spend in Chicago! It was great! I love seeing people fulfill a dream! I'm so glad you enjoyed!
