Is train travel underrated? 🚂 | why you should take a scenic, cross-country, or overnight train ride

Why is scenic train travel worth it anyway?? 🌻 Open for more info y’all!
Train travel is underrated and as a Black solo female train traveler I have a lot of thoughts about that. I think it’s such a cool experience that most folks haven’t enjoyed, primarily for financial reasons in the U.S. But I’m obsessed and think there is a short or long train ride out there for everyone. So here are some reasons why I love train travel and why you should consider doing a train trip for your next vacation.

Only rode the train from Emeryville to Portland to Tomah in 2019. Great time. Just went coach. It was great and I want to do more of it.

Great video. I'm not interested in becoming a train traveler, but I do want to take some trips. I had never been on the train before but thought of taking a short ride first (or a couple of times).

[@Sojournies]

i've watched manyyyy amtrak vlogs and i just gotta say... yours are my favorite!! this was informative so thank you! now i get that these train rides are considered trips, but my question is... what do you do once you get to your destination? 😂 i plan on traveling via amtrak and i'm unsure if i want to do coach or roomette... but then roomette prices ain't cheap! lol anyways, i just need some ideas!!
