Very enjoyable, informative, and great scenic views. I took this train from Chicago to East Glacier, and back in the late 70s. It was Amazing in every way. ❤

[@shelzp7272]

Gorgeous. A favorite route, I fell in love with Montana the first time I went through there on the EB and try to go up there a couple of times a year. I take Amtrak to Whitefish and rent a car to explore for a few days and catch Amtrak back home although sometimes I fly to Great Falls. When I fly I like to take a local bus up to Shelby to catch Amtrak back home, very easy.

[@johnvieira8716]

Of all restaurant jobs , the internship position was the best experience of all of them. I even introduced 7 new main courses and desserts,4 appetizers. My mom’s mother worked on the Seaboard system and what is now the City of New Orlleans and she Shared recipes with the other chefs in that time . I wanted to follow that tradition. I loved working on Amtrak.

This video was outstanding. I don’t know what it is about watching people ride trains, but it is very entertaining. If you can, you should try Lehigh Valley’s Jim Thorpe tourist ride, with the very historic Reading Railroad, in 100 some year old coaches. It is truly awesome.

Yeah. I never order pasta anything on Amtrak. They Flat Iron Steak is usually very good. What a creative way to include the Planets in a train video. Definitely a first.

The Empire Builder is on my bucket list. I’ll likely split it in half, spending a few days in East Glacier and exploring the park.

[@LonestarTrips]

Splitting it is a great idea. Glacier is such a beautiful national park. I visited a long time ago and it was amazing.

[@Howoldareweanywayyipes]

I took the Empire Builder from Chicago to West Glacier Park... it was a great trip in February hoping to see a blizzard which never came until the day i finally left. super food and the cabin was great. I brought my daughter with me and she had a great time... and drove our two-person snowmobile to the top of the mountain as we were told to avoid any moose.

18:23 I loved how you conveyed the pain of having to sleep through a flat wheel… I have been fortunate to not experience that going from NY to Portland. The Empire Builder is so underrated. I know the California Zephyr is regarded as the best but for me it’s Empire Builder. Glacier National Park is awe-inspiring.

New subbie here🙋🏽‍♀️ The KZbin alorithms sent your video, but your story and optimism in starting over are why I stayed. Thank you for inspiring so many of us. Believe it or not, watching Japanese television -- from rail programs (my initial reason for tuning in) and lifestyle programs to film documentaries on Japan's history and art -- transformed my life. I've long loved and respected Japanese art, so I feel and know that all of the above (including your channel being recommended) has been part of my path to finding joy. Late 50s here, mateless for more than a decade, divorced for more than 30 years, and hoping someday that someone will love me for who I am now that I've relearned (from within and through journaling) how to love myself. Thank you, sister!❤

Thanks so much! Taking the EB is 100% worth it. The Cali Zephyr is the one I'm most looking forward to doing in the future. I'm taking the Southwest Chief in a couple weeks, but I've heard the Zephyr is one of, if not the most beautiful Amtrak routes.

[@steverudder3321]

This is the first and best video that I've seen about the Empire Builder. Amtrak should be ashamed for not replacing the wheel on your sleeper car and for the shabby looking meals served. The Roomette amenities look similar to Motel 6 (no frills) quality. Perhaps, as you mentioned, the Super-Liner replacement cars will be a step up in quality and comfort? Very well spoken in your description of what you have seen and are showing in this video. Looking forward to seeing part 2. 👏👏👏

[@MatthewSmith-cv7op]

It was! I rode it in September too but chose to ride #7 instead of #8. No flat wheel (not that I remember), but we were very early into Seattle and the views were great the entire ride. I also liked the food more than I thought I would.

[@LisaMarli]

I've driven by car for most of the Empire Builder's route. It is gorgeous. We spent 3 days in East Glacier. Did you know you can get off at either Glacier stop and spend a few days? East Glacier is best. That lovely hotel was built by Great Northern for its train customers to stay at, and several tours into Glacier start at that hotel. And yes, Empire Builder is on my bucket list.

[@ggreg2258]

I have made this trip several times, east to west. I noticed that you were in one of the unrefurbished coaches. The refurbished ones have rose-colored upholstering with a couple other updates. Too bad that you first meal was so unremarkable. During all of my trips on Amtrak ,the vast majority from CHI west, I have yet to have a bad meal. And I have always-- almost--found the wait staff to be extremely accommodating. RE: Izaak Walton Inn is presently closed after being sold. How appropriate: Copeland as you trained through Glacier National Park! ! ! Thoroughly enjoyable. thanks.

[@stevendelavaux1426]

I discovered you about 3 months ago. I love your trip reports. You have a fantastic speaking style and I love positive attitude. I'm biased because I do like passenger trains, but let's be honest Amtrak isn't the best in the world. But your attitude is so refreshing in this cynical world. Cheers!

[@LonestarTrips]

It's totally worth it.

[@TexasWorldExplorer-y5y]

I think it's worth it for that far western portion because outside that, it's just flat which is why i think the Southwest Chief, California Zephyr, Coast Starlight and Sunset Limited are better with scenery when you take in the whole route.

[@railsetc]

The Izaak Walton Inn was recently sold and it is my understanding that they removed and auctioned off a lot of the railroad decor. I hope someone will correct me if I'm wrong. I have chased SP 4449 across Marias Pass, but have yet to ride. One of my favorite things to do, however, is to do an overnight on the Portland section to Whitefish, spend the day, then return home to Oregon that night. I would love to do the entire route, or even the entire Amtrak network someday!

[@LeonLahiere]

Great video and narration. I took my first trip on the Empire Builder (however, I took the Portland leg) last Spring and enjoyed it every bit as much as you did. Keep up the good work!

[@Howoldareweanywayyipes]

I kept my meals selections as simple as possible... eggs and bacon if possible, slab of well done meat and any green salad. the daughter did the same and we ate well. If we count not pronounce it we didn't want it. This was about 1990 and a sebatical type trip as payment for several years of loyal electronic services.

[@baseballfan99]

I have taken this train in the opposite direction back in 2004 on my first Amtrak trip from New York to Seattle in sleeper class. I really enjoyed it and have taken many trips since mostly in coach partially due to cost and partially as it easier to meet fellow travellers. I do think the food quality has fallen over the years even in traditional dining and it’s a shame coach passengers are not normally able to use the diner, the scenery is as good as ever of course. I saw a video where the Brightline train that had a flat wheel, it would really annoy me I have to be honest. I plan to take a sleeper trip right across Canada in a couple of years and your videos help to not only fill the gap but inspire for future trips and to take smaller trips in the interim. Keep up the great work.

Something I have done when staying in a roomette is to take a power strip with me. Then, I can plug in multiple items at once. Since I'm usually just charging devices, it won't pop any circuit breaker/fuse.

[@darth_yoda]

9:47 I freely admit it! I laughed here at the mental picture of the train running on a flat CAR wheel here :P :P That being said. The Empire Builder is perhaps THE Amtrack route I would love to experience the most. But being a dirt poor dane I will never have that kind of cash so I just have to enjoy these videos of it :P

Haha a Flat wheel would certainly be interesting. I hope someday you'll have the opportunity to experience the EB in person.

With stops for a few days here and there along the way to see the sites BUUUT it would be hecking Expensive so yeah properly won't ever happen :P But one can dream :P

[@PCBill0622]

Nice video-your dining experiences are an Amtrak trademark-inconsistent. The GN-painted “locomotive” you noted, next to the Isaac Walton Inn, is actually a “shell” with a hotel room inside. On the opposite side of the train there are caboose-rooms for rent as well. The Isaac Walton Inn is a great lodging experience. I’m somewhat surprised that you didn’t mention traversing the Cascade Tunnel (longest in the US) or the Flathead Tunnel (second longest in US) although you might have still been asleep going though Flathead.

[@LonestarTrips]

Hey! I do try to bid up every now and then, but bidding from a roomette to a bedroom almost never goes through. Coach to roomette is slightly more common, but I often just book the roomette anyways. I almost always recommend putting in a bid for an upgrade as it costs nothing to bid, and the worst is you’re just left with the ticket you started with. Also I shot this on an IPhone 12 Pro Max, though I have since unleaded to a 15 pro max. Hope this helps and safe travels!

You have never thought of bringing a power strip, mine has 12 plugs on it more than enough to power anything you might have brought along. One other thing with this power strip is that it has a circuit breaker built-in. It is flat enough to pack.

I literally brought one, I just didn’t mention it.

[@hughgautier3894]

Actually, it ends up in either the Great Lakes or the Missouri, and Mississippi Rivers which dumps out into the Gulf of Mexico.

It is what it is. In hindsight I should have contacted Amtrak customer service about getting compensation for the unpleasant ride, but I was too awestruck by the scenery to remember in the moment.

[@samtrak1204]

By mentioning it to the conductor the flat spot would have been written up on the MAP 21 for repair in Chicago...but It is never too late to complain because that would ensure the flat wheel will be removed and fixed so other passengers won't have to endure such an unpleasant ride. Besides, the flat spot only gets bigger and the ride so bumpy the train has to slow down to a crawl or set the car out en route. During my 30 years at Amtrak I've dealt with a lot of flat spots which are an integral part of the annual crew training.@@LonestarTrips
