Amtrak Vacation Coast To Coast Across The USA San Francisco to New York City

[@tgs6027]

My favorite part of all your videos is the meals and the room tours

[@lisaknox4257]

I love the vlogs and the dynamic between you two. Good to see a happy couple doing what they love.

[@thesharpercoder]

You can do one of two things during an extended smoke break. You can always get outside and stretch your legs. But, it is also the best time to hit the shower because the train isn’t rocking!

[@greeneggslamb9336]

Thank y'all so much for doing this! I've always wanted to take a train ride. I'm truly inspired by your channel, and I'm planning my first train ride on Amtrak! ❤

[@deniseolmstead6415]

I love the foggy view of the coast

[@rensinclair4218]

Getting ready for my first journey soon. You've helped so much. I was glad to see you guys eating off the train, because as much as I think Ill be fine with the Amtrak food, you guys eat so much of it! I was happy for you. It's good to see you enjoying the stops.

I believe you were in a Superlliner transition sleeper with the shower on the upper floor for those passengers riding in a upper floor roomette as the lower floor is reserved for Amtrak employees, including their rest room, shower, and small lounge area... I have seen these on the Auto Train and on the shared train sets of the Texas Eagle and Capitol Limited... I have seen some passengers on other trains lately within the past two to three years during Amtrak's Superliner fleet refurbishing program comment being in a roomette aboard a Superliner transition sleeper... There aren't many of these cars, but there are some in Amtrak's fleet...

[@inlandwatchreviews5745]

I love Amtrak, however several trains have removed the dining car and replaced it with café car food. when you pay for a room the café car food is terrible . The Capitol Limited and the City of New Orleans, book a sleeper and get sub standard food. My Wife and I were disappointed. I may be doing a lot of flying in my future.

[@randig7503]

How long were you in San Francisco? Did you get to see any of the sites? Love Lou Malnati's. In DC you have to eat at the Capital Grill

[@usharawle5493]

Hi I like to see your meals I think when you are dying in room you get more stuff than dining outside you all so a nice couple

[@FridayWithoutY-us2nk]

The fun thing about the Los Angeles Metro Lounge is that everybody gets driven in the golf cart to the boarding.

[@barbarawilliams5621]

Thank you both for riding the rails for us! You are both awesome! And, thank you for showing us the good, the bad and the ugly of train travel here in America… we were disappointed with the east coast train from Washington D.C. to New York. The train looked dirty, outside and the window you were filming from had many dirt spots, making it hard to determine if it was birds or what! Graffiti was everywhere, run down buildings, and more. It is very sad to see. We would rather do a road trip….

[@Whoeverwhateverwhenever]

How many "coast to coast" videos you have already?

[@jasonmitchell6982]

This is a mixture of all of their cost to coast videos put together. These videos are about 2 years old.

[@joemeyers3127]

@@jasonmitchell6982 they should label them as such.

I'm curious if you could see the SpaceX launch pads when the train past through Vandenberg Space Base?

[@Yugilover1]

question for anyone can you use the same transfer train ticket the next day or do you have to use it the same day?

[@davisebbert]

Another great video! What's the best way to gauge whether or not Amtrak will still be serving breakfast/lumch/dinner at the time that you board? For example, if I board at 2PM on X train, I would assume that lunch would be over, but, how would I gauge whether I could have breakfast/lunch/dinner when I board? Thanks in advance!

[@rsmeanie]

Wish I had known you were going to be in Emeryville. I live 10 mins from there and used to work across the street from the station.

[@greeneggslamb9336]

I've decided that my first train ride will be the California Zephyr. I'm wondering if, after experiencing those amazing views, do the other cross-country routes seem to be lacking? How do you handle going from spectacular views to not (as) spectacular views? Thank you ❤

[@ronclark9724]

There is nice scenery on the Coast Starlight near Santa Barbara, the coast, and by Crater Lake and Mount Shasta In Northern California and Southern Oregon... The Empire Builder has nice scenery in Marias Pass adjacent to Glacier National Park in Montana, and the Cascades west of the Columbia River to Seattle and alongside the Columbia River to Portland... The Southwest Chief has nice scenery north of Albuquerque thru Raton Pass. The Texas Eagle best scenery in my opinion is around Alpine and Marfa, Texas, but others may disagree whether a desert with small mountains is beautiful. The eyes are in the beholder whether you see the desert as beautiful. As for the east coast, in my opinion the Adirondack north of Saratoga Springs has nice scenery, as well as the Capitol Limited south of Pittsburgh thru Cumberland to the Potomac River...I believe these are most passengers favorite scenery riding Amtrak...

[@jamesdoughty5530]

How do you control your diet on your travels? I can see that it would very difficult.

[@ronclark9724]

As a diabetic I find it almost impossible to dine well riding Amtrak... While Amtrak may offer a vegan meal, it isn't suitable for diabetics. Can't eat starch: bread, potatoes, rice, or pasta. Fresh fruit is no where to be seen in the diner. About the only thing in the diner I can eat is the tossed salad, the green beans, and the meat. Traditional dining is better than flexible dining, but not by much... I bring boiled eggs, small sugar free fruit bowls, and unsweetened apple sauce bowls, mostly items that don't need to be refrigerated or cooked...

[@chrisdobrowolski2783]

I think the cafe car sells food you can have.

[@TitanicTubi]

I wish they could use the older trains from way back

[@thesharpercoder]

I ordered the Angus Burger on the Zephyr traveling east and west. I never received cole slaw with it.

What I want to know is how did you book the room so that you would have the view on the way to your destination out of your rooms window 🤷‍♀️🤔

[@livingonthedelta7068]

i bet someone had tools with them and turned it around themselves

[@tammyjohnson6822]

I remember seeing another video where you were going to book a different type of “room” where you sat across the aisle from one another. I can’t remember the name. Also, is there internet on the train? Thanks.

[@NinaCornett]

Would love to take a train trip but sooo expensive, especially if you get a bedroom & roomette are uncomfortable. We tried train from Seattle to New Orleans, to Chicago then back to Seattle. Trip was suppose to be Around 1,000.00 5 years ago… GOT CANCELLED AFTER WE RODE INTO CALIFORNIA DUE TO HURRICANE DOUBLE COMING IN…. Tried to redo trip but upgrade to bedroom and was told would be 7,000.00 to do same trip…how do you get cheaper travel on trains

[@ronclark9724]

Look out for the Amtrak promotion the 30-day rail pass riding in coach usually for ten different train trips... It's a good deal on the east coast with numerous regional day trains, but alas not as good a deal on the west coast without numerous regional day trains like the east coast. Unfortunately this pass does not include sleeper accommodations, or included diner food the sleepers have. Frankly I would splurge to get to the east coast, and then spend most of the month there before splurging back to the west coast. When I used the 30-day rail pass I spent the entire month on the east coast with ten different short train trips avoiding sleepers running up and down the east coast from Maine to Georgia... New York City, Albany,, Boston, Portland, New Haven, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington DC, Raleigh, Charleston, and Savannah... Next year I intend to do so again with different cities of which I have not planned as yet, but I do wish to see Montreal, Saratoga Springs, West Point, Niagara Falls, Toronto, Hershey,, Gettysburg, Charlotte, Spartanburg, Atlanta, and New Orleans.... However ten different trips means either hotel stays several nights or sleeping with friends somewhere along the east coast...

[@squalli1297]

I've learned to start checking fares regularly online 11 months prior travel. Prices fluctuate & will get higher closer to the day of travel- if there are any rooms available. Accommodation charges in sleeper cars have become increasingly expensive & they're incredibly popular.

[@fernengle1990]

Have you ever used the Amtrak passes?

[@DianneHathorn]

I'm trying train travel on Amtrak. This is going to be a 2 day journey. There's no observation car 😢. Hopefully the next train will have one.

[@harrietbredehoft6578]

Does an Amtrak employee still make your bed or do you have to do it yourself?

[@jeffreysmith5018]

$84 for a hotel room!?!? Seems very old timey. 😂😂😂

[@ronclark9724]

I have a hard time finding a hotel room for less than $150 a night, usually for over $200 a night...

[@thesharpercoder]

I love Chicago-style pizza, too, but not so much the deep dish. The deep dish pies are expensive and made for tourists. If you want to appreciate the Chicago-style pizza experience, then order a “thin crest”, pub style pizza, which is cut into squares. The “thin crest” pizzas are nothing like a NYC thin crust. I would describe them as NYC thin crust on steroids. The toppings go all the way to the outer edge, so there is no crust on the edge.

[@joemeyers3127]

If you’re going to recycle content the least you could do is add some new narration to freshen them up. The cabin sounds and ugly northeast corridor vistas become boring.
