Riding Over 40 HOURS on a Train [TIPS + TRICKS] (Amtrak Coach Seat)

In this video I ride Amtrak in coach for 3 days and 2 nights. Here is how I slept, what I did, what I saw, and how this 40+ hour train trip prevented me from wanting to do it again.
Getting back into editing and posting! Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed! Hoping to be more active on this channel, now. Livestreaming on twitch starting back up, as well!!

[@Knarfy]

😊💜 gotta support the bois

[@jakethecake001]

woah Knarfy?? crazy

[@jakethecake001]

3:17 LET'S GOOOO!! This is the first time someone ever used my music for something. Damn you're underrated...

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Duuuuude!!! So great to see you stopped by :) I hope you liked the way the track was featured!! Thanks for allowing me to use it. Great little tune :) good luck with you and your music!!! I hope you stick around with the channel and enjoy my future vids too :D

[@BeatCarrier]

Fits the mood perfectly

[@TonyFrankJazz]

@@jakethecake001 that's a nice groove to that soundtrack bro.

[@CountryMusic527]

Very nice. I'm a rail enthusiast and I really enjoy Amtrak, even though it's a slow way to travel. But I think 40 hours would be too long for me. I have yet to experience any Amtrak travel outside the east coast. Happy you're back to making videos

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Yoooooo !!! Always great to see comments from you, of course :) Nice!! What Amtrak rides have you done before??? It was a really cool experience. I've heard the Denver to San Francisco stretch is actually really quite incredible. I am ALSO happy I'm back to videos and streaming on twitch. It feels really good to be creative. Thanks for making time to watch the vid and comment even tho ur crazy busy :D I super super appreciate it, as always :)

[@CountryMusic527]

@@FunkadelicPeach Only the Vermonter to northern Vermont (beautiful but very slow) and the northeast corridor (Washington DC to Boston). For a year the Vermonter was replaced by a bus north of Springfield, MA and that wasn't as fun of a journey. I hope to be able to watch your streams again too

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@CountryMusic527 Nice!!! Sounds cool :) "The Vermonter" is a badass name. Thanks (as always) for your support, it means a TON :)

[@THintz-jc4sl]

Was it safe to leave your property at your seat when you got up to use the restroom??

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@THintz-jc4sl I took it with me! I was not taking any chances. I left my clothes bag at the seat but took my electronics bag

[@marilynsue4273]

Around the holidays, it might be easier to take the train one way, then fly back. Cheaper, too. Wipes and spray sanitizer a must in coach.

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Good suggestions for sure!!! Thanks for watching my video :) I really really appreciate it!

[@Jetski_Journals]

So, my question is should I pony up and pay the $1,200 to travel in a roomette, or the $200 to travel by couch? (I plan to travel from Cincy to LA, then fly back) I’m just not sure if the sleeping arrangements are comfortable.

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Honestly, I was totally fine in my seat! I was glad to save the money. I am 6 foot and 155lbs. I had enough room to fully stretch out and also sleep through the night. Even with someone sitting next to me (I just turned my head into the window each time haha). Have fun!

[@Jetski_Journals]

@@FunkadelicPeach Awesome! Thanks for the info! I’m 6’3, so knowing that there is plenty of room is a huge bonus as well! Hahahaha I’d do the same. Thanks! I appreciate you replying! (You don’t see that often, so it’s greatly appreciated!)

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@Jetski_Journals yeah any time! This is one of those videos I put a lot of time into and it didn’t end up getting many views so I love being able to reply and engage with peeps. Have fun on the trip! Good luck!

[@Jetski_Journals]

@@FunkadelicPeach I’m sorry that it didn’t get many views! It was a great video. I’ve watched others, and they weren’t as insightful as yours. Keep up the great work!

[@Luizz07]

When the peach is peachin'

[@FunkadelicPeach]

ayyyy you know it, lol. Thanks so much for watching this video!! It really means a lot.

[@AlexCab_49]

I love train travel but after 1000 miles I'll prefer to fly

[@theoldwashingtonresident3450]

It’s been a while

[@FunkadelicPeach]

It sure has been!! Thanks for watching :)) I hope you enjoyed!!! Great to see familiar names in comments

[@christimorgret7818]

What I'm hearing is that all these Americans who think infrastructure isn't "sexy" or "a good use of our tax dollars" need to take a ride on Amtrak.

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@christimorgret7818 lol! It was definitely an eye opening experience for sure

[@billkallas1762]

One night, OK, two nights....Um maybe, three nights, ....I don't think so.

[@vuho2075]

Now you know what victims of torture have to endure

[@keith9786]

Yeah I can't ride coach either, like if I get 2 hours of sleep I'm lucky.

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@billkallas1762 yeah dude. Brutal stuff. Lol. It was GOING to be 4 nights if I didn’t cut it short 🥴

[@ckos3041]

WE'RE VLOGGIN BABYYYYYYYY

[@FunkadelicPeach]

YESSIRRRRRR!!! Thank you for watching!! I hope you enjoyed :)))

[@shelleysmith9532]

I enjoy the train

[@markfrye9178]

So you think that if you were't traveling alone it would have been easier? Just curious, cause I would be dong that too.

[@FunkadelicPeach]

I think traveling alone made it easier actually. If I was with someone else, I would’ve been worried more about our collective needs rather than just my own.

[@TonyFrankJazz]

I love the "Just Friends" Bossa groove soundtrack!

[@FunkadelicPeach]

@@TonyFrankJazz thanks so much for watching :))

[@bobby_fett]

I would have never thought of traveling by train. I've got to try it sometime

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Bobby!!! Thanks for watching :)) I hope you really enjoyed the video. And yes! Traveling by train is definitely a unique experience. Thanks again for the comment and support.

[@CainSouthern2112]

I've watched Dillon's travel reports video on this

[@FunkadelicPeach]

Niceeee! Hope you liked the video, Cain!! Thanks for commenting :))

Last year me and my daughter left Everett to go to Portland Maine we took Amtrak cuz it was cheaper we had coach so I brought my sheets my blanket my two pillows my snack play carry-on bag my change of clothes and all the stuff I need I got my gal on flippers went to bed got up went down to the bathroom that's that's got a seating area got cleaned up went and got my coffee my juice add cereal on me already spam a tuna fish bread stuff to drink I took the Empire Builder down to Chicago 4 hour wait in Chicago 20 hours from Chicago to New York a 12-hour layover in New York and then 4 hours to Portland Maine it took me 76 hours on Amtrak and the cafeteria car I got my coffee and milk brought my own cereal but the dining car they had opened for Coach passenger breakfast was $20 lunch was 25.00 and dinner was 37 to $40 three course meal that was a beautiful trip what I learned from that is not over pack a bunch of food cuz I over packed everything I had fun can you can walk on the train you go to the sightseeing car go down to the cafeteria take breaks when they stopped at the train the only thing I did not like is the long layover in New York I wanted the cheeseburger so I went out and round the corner and found a good cheeseburger place and I'm thinking about doing it again I just don't like to travel by myself because if you go coach cuz it's cheaper I don't want some stranger sitting beside me that I don't know I also brought a stanchion cord plugged it in and put it around underneath my seat behind in front of my seat and plugged in my DVD player my cell phone and I I brought DVD to watch you do not have internet turn on your phone movies if you download it onto your phone but it was a great time I'm sorry this gentleman didn't care for it too much but it's a beautiful way to see the sights and things that you haven't seen before
