HD Amtrak Movie

[@johndoran1754]

Costs more and takes longer but actually seeing our country is priceless. My favorite way to travel.

[@derrickgreen9020]

Fascinating...best wishes from England...such huge trains dwarf ours over here. So good to see the train drivers waving at the cameraman.

[@mikeytrains1]

I've ridden on the Silver Star(Amtrak 91) to Tampa from Ft Lauderdale,awesome ride.Amtrak Silver Meteor,Ft Lauderdale to New York,even better!Its an amazing ride.Worth two days of work!

[@WasatchRailfan125]

I remember this when I was like 4 years old, even after 7 years it's still a Master piece.

Another fine video, ervans. I used to do rail inspections so I really appreciate those long shots.

[@trainguy262]

The nostalgia is real.

[@ayutthayatrojan]

When I lived in the USA I found Amtrak to give good service but was not really liked by the locals who just want to go door-to-door by oil guzzling automobiles. Very much enjoyed you views of the Coast Starlight and Cascade--many thanks

[@CintiRailFan]

Awesome seeing light rail and Amtrak moving in the same view!

[@Chestefilms]

Great video!! The most "simple" train we see on it (not the emblematic double floor one) is the Talgo series 8, a train made by Spanish TALGO for Amtrack with it's modern technology: ultra light coaches and "natural tilting" system. The best of our Spanish trains translated to the great American trains. Something lovely to see, indeed :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talgo

[@lukeskywalker6338]

used to watch this long time ago

[@michael3343]

Nothing better than an awesome american trains, Amtrak is my favorite railroad transportation.

[@eidorian101]

Probably the slowest trains in the world

[@michael3343]

Thats because america has more beautify and views than the other pathetic countries, you fool!!! These trains are great and they just came out with the ACS 64 135mph and acelas go 160mph!

[@amtrakandcsxrailfanning164]

awesome video movie Compton of the coast starlights and the Cascades trains too with both with some good horn action

[@sandybritton8532]

I'm lovin these vids but you know it still amazes me how many 'Dipsticks' still try to beat such a huge & powerful train across the line!!!!!

[@jimjardine4705]

Amazing how they go over bend and dipping rails with no trouble.!

[@USARailProductions]

Awesome Movie! And Nice Catch of P42 189 before being painted to the "Big Game Train" Scheme! :D

[@Cinco-da-mayo]

I really love the Amtrak specially the GE Genesis Loco and the Double Decker coaches the waterfall ones are a bit 2 like a smaller one,but what surprises me is that US doesn't have too many electric trains apart from Amtrak running in the north-east corridor. Acela is sexyyyyyyyyyyy!!

[@JawTooth]

Wow, that first scene sure was a close one!!

[@karelfromholland]

Ervans Spielberg,what a great video of one of the most beautiful trains in the world ;o)

[@ErvansTrains]

Thanks Karel, for a great compliment

[@f.s.937]

Magnificent recordings. Thumbs up!

[@Rollie887]

Ervin you done it again that was a wonderful piece of history I would never see that where alive. I think they are a lovely. piece of power over time on the rails Rollie Canada

[@ErvansTrains]

Thanks Roland, always good to hear from you

[@airamericaman]

Awesome video. I've been looking for Amtrak only videos for a while. Thank you.

[@elnido4184]

American trains might not be as streamlined and bulkier especially famously using steel instead of alluminum, which makes them heavier, but the double deckers are huge. Interesting rail road crossing and I love the sound of the american horns and bells even though I am a huge fan of French, German, Japan, China and Spanish railways. Must visit America one day.

[@fabienlegall]

A big and beautiful and strong train !

[@elnido4184]

Famous like the huge american trucks.

[@elnido4184]

yes very interesting using the bells in stations, not that you can see it.

[@UnlimitedRailOfficial]

4:01 203 was the leader in that talgo, it is now known as the "operation lifesaver" unit.

[@1230james]

194 people like riding airplanes, where there's a 5% chance of surviving an accident, and where you can see absolutely nothing outside the window. Unlike trains.

I'm supposed to be flying to Europe next year. Thanks for the fear.

[@peccatumDei]

The word "movie" in the title implies to many people that there's a story being told. While the HD video is very nice, there's no story, just a random assortment of video clips.

[@CSX1973]

Great Amtrak Train Video.

[@paulwhitear4983]

Nice video, nice to see american railways

[@michael3343]

Yes indeed, love american railways.

[@CaliforniaZephyrProductions]

the guy waving in the second clip is a car attendant not the conductor. also the official photo policy surrounds the person having a ticket but most amtrak employees are very relaxed on it. the station agents at my local station have been very helpful to me in the past.

[@kwonglie5]

THANK YOU........................................FROM BOISE IDAHO USA

[@b-justindacanay1080]

nice ervans train video

[@ismoleppanen]

I have a dream: riding trains across the US from east coast to west coast. I just turned 66, but who knows.

[@reynaldogarza109]

Go , I recommend it , you won't regret it, and take your camera or video camera.

Yes, a lot of times. One great trip to Southern California a few years ago.

[@WideWorldofTrains]

Very good work, Liked it

[@carlalyles]

I definetly recognize that area, the mission mill and the train station in Salem, Oregon

[@ErvansTrains]

It was Salem, Oregon. They have always been friendly to me here

[@wolfmanred1]

OMG!!! There is a town named Dallas in Oregon! I saw it on Google Earth! How great! Now, I can live in Dallas, and wouldn't have to suffer the indignity of being associated w/ Jerry Jones & the Cowboys.

[@susiecoombes3909]

Awesome video. I love all the outside views of the trains, they are so, for lack of a better word, "majestic" I love them.

[@MagictrainsOrg]

Awesome!

[@WideWorldofTrains]

Well done Amtrak movie

[@jeanmariebalaes1137]

Ces voies ondulées, ces cloches, ces avertisseurs, ... tout ce bruit, c'est effarant. Et les passages à niveau sans barrières! Nous sommes gâtés en Europe!

[@Railtrotter]

en france aussi y a des passage à niveau sans barrière, en gare de paris est par exemple non seulement les voies sont ondulées mais il y a de l'herbe, et puis regarde la taille des usa comparée a un pays d’Europe, c'est très dure financièrement à entretenir un réseau aussi vaste. crois moi que en france y'a plein de ligne qui ne font même pas le dixième de la longueur d'une ligne des usa et qui pourtant sont en bien mauvais état !!!

[@jeanmariebalaes1137]

mika67407 C'est tout de même vrai que ces trains américains font un sacré tapage à l'approche des "crossings". À mon avis, il vaut mieux habiter à plus de cinq kilomètres d'un passage à niveau si on veut vivre en paix. ;-)

[@Railtrotter]

c'est vrai que faire autant de bruit n'est pas nécessaire surtout que les cons, c'est pas sa qui les arrête.

[@jeanmariebalaes1137]

mika67407 Nous sommes d'accord.

[@darrylsmith5008]

Great Work!

[@ErvanErvansTrains]

Thanks

[@freeamericausa1]

Great videos. If you don't mind a little hint. The distortion we see during the passing of the engines is due to being so close to the ELECTROMAGNETS contained in each set of wheels. A few feet backward should help take that away. Otherwise. Great job.

[@balannarayan1034]

yes very nice video thank you for uploading

[@TGChinappi]

If you pause at 7:28, you can see the SP 4449 on another platform further back

[@howarth004]

Good one covering the Amtrak , nice footage

[@midrange18]

Great video. I'm doing something simular this year with VIA RAIL.

[@summayaha]

You can take some great family vacations on Amtrak!

[@MALAKASAM]

Beautiful.

[@ronaldschmidt5140]

I would like to see more about the Cascades between Portland and Seattle if you have some film/video. Sights and inside the train. A little about business class. We are taking the 28 from Minneapolis to Portland and then the Cascades 500 to Sea-Tec Tukwila and then flying home. I have subscribed the Evans Trains a while back and thought most of your work was with freight but I have seen some of the Amtrak. Ron Minneapolis

[@Chesterbarnes1]

Excellent video please do more

[@MrRobertver]

Poderoso Amtrak!! nice video...

[@marioa.galindoscorpio4545]

me encantan verlos y oirlos aunque en nuestro pais guatemala no existen trenes

[@moonrider67]

great video...too much traffic in the air, and the airports...the answer is high speed railroads

[@salemcripple]

it sucks they aren't allowed to blow their horns through Salem anymore

[@ErvansTrains]

Yes it does

[@lubnapachi]

..

[@farididjouadiene8334]

*****

[@collettemartinez8687]

Funny

[@christopherorourke6362]

It's also the same for Marana & Loser City Tucson, AZ and many cities & towns across the country where the train engineers are not allowed to sound the train horn when going through a crossing, entering & leaving a train station, fright train yard at all. But a person or persons can blast loud music as loud as they want when stopped at a red light, stop sign, and make loud motorcycle sounds as loud as they like, and nothing is done to them at all.

[@Trainman145]

In first train it had a phase 3 baggage car nice catch

[@ramms9825]

WOW I REM THAT I WAS 6 OR 5 AND NOW IM 11 THIS ALWAYS PLAY :;> proud of channel

[@ErvanErvansTrains]

Glad to hear. Thank you

[@grayfireproductions]

Where was the 2nd clip recorded? it's nice that most Amtrak conductors know the photography policy and are respectfully friendly to railfans. Light rail/commuter networks are a different story....

[@grayfireproductions]

@cartman46 light rail: like the San Jose VTA lines, St. Louis Metro-Link, MTA in Baltimore

[@LanesAviationYT]

[@ethanyetman5038]

Yes pay attention to the normal Amtrak train when UP 4449 is sitting right over there

[@wolfmanred1]

I didn't know there was a town in Oregon named 'Dallas'; look @ the sign @ 12:14, & 23:38.

Thank you, love the. Action.

[@alexdiaz4875]

This is my favorite part of this video at 49:01 you can hear a cool clickety clack sound from the train while they blow the horns

[@ErvansTrains]

Thanks

[@NAVAL6177]

Very good

[@DTRProductions.]

I barely even remember this video when I was like 3 years old or 5

[@sarahrobins7746]

Wow did good the 2 cascades I was on

[@robertgift]

Well done video. First scene improperly videoed inside the stop line? Unfortunate that the (o)T(o) activate when the train is going to stop. 4:20 You should have shown when the signals deactivate. 4:28 Departing, when did the (o)T(o) re activate? 19:05 Wow! Was the steam locomotive live?

[@TrainsandAdventuresTV]

The wait starts at 24:28 and ends at 42:51, WTH I mean I can tell you did this just to leghthen the video but when I first watched this in 2014, I died for the train to come! XD

[@ErvanErvansTrains]

i love amtrak

[@matteosalazar3801]

The Williams Worgs show Amtrak is awesome

[@dansnydar8709]

Wish Amtrak had Business Class on the long distance trains, such as Coast Starlight. Bedroom space is limited, and when I travel last minute, I'll fly before I go straight coach. I travel alone, and having to sit next to a stranger between Seattle and Los Angeles isn't gonna happen! If Amtrak would wall off the last half of the last coach with large biz class seating, I would give it a try, and pay more for the semi-privacy. I wouldn't expect the same complimentary meals as sleeper class. Perhaps just a coffee card would do. A single traveler in coach is subject to being moved around to accommodate couples and families. A first class coach section would be well received, I believe.

[@gladfan1989]

They are now incorporating Business Class seating on long haul trains. Coast Starlight is one of them.

[@williamhu2630]

nice train it is!what a nice locomotive it is！

[@jaydenmendez6825]

My favorite Like Amtrak going trip

[@Saminakapoor]

1:29 favorite part

[@ErvansTrains]

Yes, you are right I was way to close. I don't get that close any more. Here's the videos. (HD) PW 3052 Freight Train (attack of the flying strap at Fox crossing and HD Very dangerous (the flying strap in slow motion)

[@robertdoyle6387]

17JN14... We have some way to go...track maintenance not as good as Europe and our trains look bulky and not as neat or streamlined as DB.

[@josephinedlima798]

Uui

[@robertdoyle6387]

Uui ?????

[@mjarail]

Robert: I will certainly agree with you that improved track conditions are certainly needed, the track could use a ballast cleaner and a good resurfacing. As for equipment, DB uses some double decked cars in suburban service out of large cities which are about the same size as an Amtrak Superliner..

Makes me want to get on a train. I would much rather ride a train than fly. I am old enough to remember the time when most people traveled by train. Too bad service is so bad outside of the Northeast Corridor.
