    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.

    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.

      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.

    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.

    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🚂

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

  • @rezaalan3991
    @rezaalan3991 22 часа назад

    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.
