I really liked that one train announcer guy who said he wanted to give everyone water because he had a lot and wanted to water everyone like little flowers...and also said, "thank you for choo choo choosing Amtrak" I love that guy...

[@teddiihikari]

i came here to look for this comment! I thought it was so cute that he wanted to water everyone like little flowers too

[@kingedwin]

[@LisaLovesFugglers]

He was so adorable I loved it lol

[@AmbientWalking]

Virtual traveling is one of the coolest things on KZbin and I'm always glad to encounter one of your new trips. It's so nice to travel in this way! Thanks! : )

[@Blasterbot-ye2uk]

the man went without rice for so long it brought him to tears when he finally got some.

[@notoriousresearcher]

13:39 That number of unread emails spiked my blood pressure 😂

[@slartybartfast7419]

I came here to see if anyone else saw that! Almost 7,000... How?!

[@mightywookiee6633]

​@@slartybartfast7419 They're mostly all KZbin notifications emails. Uploads, comments, that kind of stuff. That's why I disabled Gmail notifications years ago.

[@mecheed1908]

I don't like the fact that I understand what other ppl are saying 😅

[@jill7717]

Same! We should ask AI to translate it into a language we can’t understand, but is not to distracting 😂

[@DonnaLee4]

Actually, I don't mind because I'm pretending that I'm the one going on this trip, because I know I'm probably never going to do anything like that in my lifetime!😂

[@aromanticfranziskavonkarma]

Good thing I have an audio processing disorder 💪💪💪

[@BethDoublekickChick]

Haha yeah it felt strange 😂

[@SnowAnayathatweirdgirl]

Same these dubs suck! 😂

[@feeberizer]

Years ago I knew a gal whose husband was a chef for Amtrak based out of Seattle. He'd go roundtrip and then have a few days off. They would take vacations riding on a different route every year.

[@chellastation]

The best part was the train employee watering the passengers like a flower. This guy goes above and beyond

[@vports8046]

I'm taking this same train in January with a sister, mom & dad! They are celebrating their 65th wedding anniversary and Anna and I are there for it. TOOT TOOT.

[@wenglishsal]

Ooh, a Solo Solo Travel popped up for me, and it's literally has just been uploaded.. Well then, lets settle down with a cuppa and a biccy and watch 'Our favourite, witty, funny, and unseen Solo San.. Sending my hearitest best wishes to you, from Wales.

[@mamadab2563]

I am also sitting down watching with a cuppa and from Wales. Good day to you fellow like minded person. Enjoy the sun x

[@GGal-fx7wv]

Я научилась у тебя говорить "спасибо за еду". Видео как всегда интересное. Благодарю.

[@rwdavidoff]

You might be interested to know that Amtrak is in discussion for a new generation of these bilevel cars. According to the request for proposals, the new ones should have a lot more outlets, enclosed gangways between cars, electronic doors lockable from the outside of the sleeper compartments, and single-seat sleeping compartment pods someplace between a Roomette and a business class lie-flat seat. Assuming the contract to buy them gets funded at all with....everything.

[@rwdavidoff]

The majority of the operating Superliners (284) are Superliner Is, from the 1970s, about 45 years old with refurbishments since, with 195 Superliner IIs added in the mid-90s and thus about 30 years old. If the contract goes ahead, the plan is for the new bilevel purchase to replace all of those.

[@mandie7349]

素敵な旅ありがとうございます。食事の豪華さ、壮大な景色。スーツくんでびっくり😂

[@cauxzieruffhausen9547]

I could sit up in that observation car all day. What a great view.

[@nordseagull]

Мне в очередной раз понравилось как вы шутите над неисправностями в вагоне. Это заряжает меня оптимизмом.❤Мне кажется выходить ночью на остановке - это классно. И так приятно просыпаться зимою утром в поезде. Выпить горячего чая, а потом хрустеть яблоком и смотреть на убегающие в снежную даль ели и сосны.

[@heatherjb6084]

You were in my home state! I live just north of the Twin Cities. You lucked out and came at a not so snowy time. We had a very cold but not as snowy winter this last year.

[@TotemSP2]

I read that as Amtrak's Slowest Sleeper Train, and didn't even bat an eye.

[@TrainwreckPoet]

I have ridden on many of your Amtrak routes, and enjoy seeing a different version of my journey. I have used the Empire Builder for more than 30 years. Great maintenance keeps the antique stock rolling. when you showed the downed trees in the Cascades, they are tree fall from storms. recent storms will have tossed many more on the ground! Appreciate your videos. muchismas gracias🚂

[@syndorian1670]

o7 the bravery of this lad for continuing to give Amtrak a chance despite all the negative experiences

[@sharonfauber2118]

Hi Just watching your video. I was on the Southwest Chief this summer, from Illinois to New Mexico. . This train is very similar to the Umpire Builder. I had a room . It as I little bigger than the roomette. The food was excellent . All the staff were nice. I am had an enjoyable trip. Thank you for sharing.

[@sharrizink6516]

I have have taken this train in each direction (in 2011). I was supposed to fly from Chicago to my home, but the train was so late, I got off in St. Paul and flew from there to Chicago to get home. I'm glad you were able to get Japanese food from Mitsuwa - they have a really good food court, and Kinokuniya.

[@AJStarhiker]

The Empire line goes through my hometown!

[@sw4692]

Solo solo san - this Amtrak train is so much nicer than the other one you rode on. Even the food looks tasty

[@eemillampinen]

Well in finland it has been crazy week end we had a massive snow storm and now everything is covered in snow also there were massive winds and the snowplow guys are now really busy and hard working because the snow amount but still its cool to think that in finland we go to work and school even if we had huge snow storm in other countries the work and school are usually closed because too much snow:)

[@h3llotherefellas]

3:08 "WELCOME LADIES AND GENTLEMAN - PLEASE, PLEASE REMAIN IN YOUR ROOM, REMAIN IN YOUR Seats 👺👺🗣🔥🔥🗣👺🗣"

[@InsectPolitician]

Doesn’t change when you’re in New York on the metro north I’ll tell ya 😂

[@areareare9953]

That's cuz we Yanks roam around like buffalo on the plains. After the pleading, comes the tasers. Then we sit down. At least that's what happened in Church.

[@zemlya47]

У нас такая природа сейчас, идёт ❄️ снег, за один день намело сугробы, такое новогоднее настроение, что я купила конфетки, заварю чай и буду вместе с вами ехать в поезде 😊 всем хорошего настроения ❤ и новогоднего настроения ☃️❄️☃️🌲😊

[@daysgracecan]

ー23度！ ずっと西日本に住んでいる私にとっては想像もつかない気温です！

[@user-ky5kj2hw6z]

9:43 Отлично ❤ Я так бросила курить. Заменила сигарету на глубокие вдохи и выдохи.

[@KEHDPA]

Добрый день! Очень интересное и красивое путешествие. ❤❤❤ 28:04 У нас явление, когда снег бегает по льду или дороге, называется «пороша». 25:15 А эти собаки в такую погоду не мерзнут потому что них под шерстью много мелкого пуха и он создает тепловой барьер.

[@bluebird41978]

Imagine finding this guy while travelling and realizing that his face is actually blurred IRL and it’s not a filter lmao

[@koceilabenbelkacem498]

This time, Solo Solo Travel wasn't Solo 😁😁

[@soykatwobadger2963]

Дякую вам за подорож, любий Соло-сан! Стільки снігу, морозу! Дуже красиве озеро Мічиган, і засніжені дерева. І вагі жарти- що може бути краще! 💕💕💕 🇺🇦

[@PoetDarkling]

That big fountain by Lake Michigan is called Buckingham Fountain. In the summer, when it's on, they shine colored lights on it, and it's beautiful!

[@Malinamalia737]

J’ai adoré ce parcours, et surtout la façon dont vous nous le faites découvrir ! Votre humour et votre sérieux en même temps ! Top 👍

[@projectbandshirt4329]

It sounds like Amtrak is very attentive during weather delays. I like that

[@thesledgehammerblog]

I've spent plenty of time at King Street Station over the years from commuting on the Sounder trains. I live on the other side of the country now, but it feels a bit weird to see Japanese travel bloggers doing videos of things I am very familiar with. The Empire Builder also passes through Everett Station only a few miles from where I used to live.

[@grassmanBoca]

Nothing like the great trains in Japan!

[@favreii]

First i love your vidoes!!

[@lao5610]

33:47 I used to live in that yellow house!

[@WWE-F1shorts]

Let’s gooo another video!!

[@Toyboy-qg9lb]

Woooooooahooooo

[@kclefthanded427]

That's what we do in Southern California by wearing shorts with sandals on snowy days in the mountains

[@carolbober-cb9rn]

Solo San, A simply gorgeous vlog in the snow. I grew up in Minneapolis and no one knows why it isn't one city. Best line: Elsa's Fight Car. Laughed out loud for a LONG time.

[@franciscawrites8972]

You were brave to Amtrak it….. I applaud you for your verve and patience as you endure US Passenger Trains (aka - Amtrak 👎 ) …. but, I am happy to see you survived those 3 days plus the Winter adventure in Chicago. Solo Solo Travel wins, again!

[@mamadab2563]

Thank you for your calming and funny videos x

[@SophiaSwing-k8p]

Even though you did not seem to enjoy it this time around I am very happy you tried the plantbased options. I am a vegetarian myself ☺️

[@himbourbanist]

I love the Empire Builder. It's so beautiful, and so emblematic of everything that's actually good about America and American rail travel. It is definitely not perfect here, but we have some really lovely and worthwhile services here in this country that cannot be written off. Thank you for riding and enjoying our beautiful trains here in the US.

[@CaptainJerry-]

The Empire Builder was named for the East to West route!

[@TheTikeySauce]

Hope you had a good time in Seattle! It's always cool seeing travelers visit our state. :)

[@Htatoohlaing]

32:25 Good job, soldier! It was indeed a bomb. You saved a lot of people that day. o7 40:42 That was hilarious! Water me papi! 41:56 WTF! What a turn of events! WTF is wrong with people seriously? 44:04 Something about the announcement from the train crew, it was so nice and warm.

[@applinme657]

Man… I’m away from home for a long time, and seeing snow makes me so homesick

[@rezaalan3991]

What a great trip. Correct me if I wrong, if you want a better panorama, try the Portland part of the train, but the downside is you can't access dining car, since the dining car on Seattle part of the train. The trip didn't end well since the harsh weather make the train going trouble for a while, and more bad news is your train got cancelled. I think your cancelled train trip can be try during outside winter.

[@eyenpersu5248]

ooo fragrance free wipes! as someone who is allergic to most perfumes .... I love it when they hand out freebies I can actually use.

[@Kangal_06]

It was me with the burger tip 😂. some ppl eat burgers all their life an dont know this figured id share . Great vids ,keep them coming .

[@erizabesu9494]

Thank you for sharing your Amtrak experiences, both good and bad. I enjoy traveling virtually with you!

[@Parkhopper1985]

Hello Solo Solo. We're taking Via Rail from Vancouver to Toronto soon. We're really excited!!!!

[@AssassinSuper]

Yee sir posted a new video

[@Koalabears7777]

I loved the spin spin towel! You are definitely one of my favorite travelers! The bunk was scary and seemed extremely unsafe with the flimsy belt.😳😨

[@igor_vt]

Great! Thank You very much for travel story!

[@javajink0301]

When he was in the upper bed smashed like a pretzel 😅 I love this kind of humor. Thank you for your travels!

[@areareare9953]

Oh, Solo's going to Chiberia today!!!

[@renerivera9715]

Amazing ❤

[@mollysmith6055]

Wow, that was an epic journey and maybe not in the best way. You are a dedicated KZbinr to continue on throughout those challenges and the Polar Vortex too! Hopefully you will get to take the Southwest train journey someday soon and have a pleasant experience.

[@Liz0657]

I love all your videos, they are relaxing and they make me laugh. 😂 I even rewatch them.

[@ЛенаК-н8т]

Спасибо автор за прекрасные и вкусные путешествия! На кадрах с пиццей мой желудок дрогнул и слюнки потекли.....Мня- мня Благодарю, очень позновательно и интересно!

[@sharonfauber2118]

My daughter lives in Helena Montana. I am traveling there for Christmas.

[@evertonfilos]

Parabéns !!! Belo passeio !!!! Rio de Janeiro - Brasil

[@FelicissimoVarallo]

Chicago e stupenda sotto la neve ma Anke la vista dal aereo era stupenda

[@AlongCameFi]

It makes me so happy that your videos are getting so many views now! What brand is your suitcase? It seems super practical for travel - I love the colour too. Makes me happy when I see it being wheeled around in your videos.

[@Localtraveler2376]

A lot of people make fun of the rail system in the US but Amtrak does a lot with a tiny budget. The workers especially really seem to care. The train here just isn’t that popular and doesn’t make a lot of money anymore. Vegan is tough but that’s a choice. I’m allergic to gluten which is very difficult when traveling.

[@peedeegt]

I’m sure it’s still considerably better than any rail network in the UK. Trust me, you guys have it good.

[@Yuliya_Krepkaya]

hello everyone! There will be no type 2 diabetes from overeating. It's just from nerves. if you overeat sweets, the maximum that can be is a rash on the skin. now about the weather))) it is always much colder and windier near reservoirs than away from them =) thanks for the video and for the walk! I really liked it!

[@Meme-r4q]

GRACIAS POR EL VIAJE.....ME DIO MUCHO GUSTO SABER DE TI....CARIÑOS A TU PADRE SALUDOS DESDE SANTIAGO DE CHILE❤❤❤❤

[@faithworks217]

I like that your father is sharing some of your adventures. And, no, you don't need to have shoplifter confidence. Lol!

[@phronsiekeys]

The older sleeping car at the end with the bar soap may have been the crew car.

[@AtulKumar-lj3pt]

Should have shown the temperature in LA on landing :) can understand why people are so happy to go California. That was some intense snow and cold

[@filipl.296]

Japanese in Japan: +23 degrees, I won't wear shorts because it's cold (and embarrassing) Japanese outside Japan: -16 outside, I'll wear shorts and flip-flops all the time, it's quite warm and no other Japanese will notice Polish citizen everywhere: -16? I won't go out in shorts?! Hold my beer!

[@RobloxianJade]

[@wayneelijahjohnson8924]

This was an excellent video. Your sense of humor had me rolling.✌️🏾😇

[@LisaLovesFugglers]

I'd be alright with free snackies after hours of delays. Free food is always a bonus! 😂

[@sw4692]

The hazards of traveling in the winter. And you have to hint Gojo Satoru and Sakuna battle... 😆😆😆
