Very good story, I watch VRF daily and La Plata in particular, As a "lurker" and not a chatterr and enjoy it very much.
Thank you, Rob. We loved our time there. We have a full tour of La Plata in our ‘Eastern USA’ Amtrak series you may also enjoy.
Ive been to that station and Laplata. Ive got only good thoughts about that place. It is a special place to me.
I loved it there. Miss Oscar out front!
Hello from Nottingham England. I found LAP on my iPad early this year and have had much pleasure watching. I think the restoration is remarkable and congratulations to all concerned. It’s so different from anything in UK and thus most intriguing . I shall look forward to my “visits” in 2022 and send best wishes to all I have “talked with” over the past months. Just DO NOT change the station!.
Hello Peter, I’m glad you enjoyed the tour. It was a lot of fun spending a few days there (see episode 22 of our “eastern USA“ series for a full tour of the city).
What a nice little station, it’s clear that the caretaker does an excellent job in preserving it. It wouldn’t look out of place in an episode of Mad Men.
Thank you, Laura! Those caretakers really do an excellent job ☺️☺️
Beautiful little place ☺️❤️ I'm hoping me and my family can take an Amtrak ride here someday from California🌻😀💗🌹☀️🌞❤️
It’s very easily doable. Take the Southwest chief from Los Angeles, and you were there in just about a day and a half.
Watch episode 3 of our Eastern USA series.. also, watch ep 22. Both of them will cover La Plata. Episode 22 does in great detail.
@@InnocentsAbroad thank you for the help,and sounds like a great idea and fun time 😊😊☀️🌞
I am from la plata but from Argentina its town is called la plata in honor of the city of la plata Argentina where I live it is crazy to know that it is called like that
A very nice station and so clean too hello from Tunisia
Thank you, Lamine- it was a very nice station with lots of history!
Thank you for watching 😊
Thanks for this historical video of La Plata station. I often watch the webcam in La Plata. I like everything: the people, the trains, the image of the station and the comforting tranquility of the landscape.
You are very welcome! There are lots more train content and travel on our channel if you want to watch. Episode 22 of the eastern USA series is a full tour of La Plata.
Thank you again for watching.
With great pleasure. Thank you very much!@@InnocentsAbroad
Interesting and enjoyable. Always wondered what it might look like after seeing the outside all these years and not expecting much from a small town station. Much nicer looking on the inside than I expected from just seeing the outside from the train cams. Hopefully the exterior refurbishment will mirror the neatness and of the attractiveness of the inside.
Thank you, Bill. It was lovely to get access to the interior- and hope they keep the stations looking good for others to enjoy.
THANKS. I'VE BEEN WONDERING JUST WHAT EVERYTHING LOOKS LIKE BEHIND THE TWO CAMERAS. THIS IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE RAILCAM BECAUSE THE TRAINS ARE SO CLOSE YOU COULD ALMOST REACH OUT AND TOUCH THEM. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Thanks for watching.
Bob is a moderator for virtual railfan
Um… I know, we met him and interacted with him. This is not news, but thank you for watching.
Love Oscar! Every bin needs a grouch 😂
lol. Thank you for watching!
What a great tour and interesting story behind this station's history! Nearly every morning I catch the sunrise- and a train or two- on the VRF railcam. You couldn't meet a nicer group of people in the chat, and with our shared enthusiasm for trains. Due to the east-facing camera's position, I had no idea the station building is this size. The interior is beautiful. It feels like a little museum, and I wasn't expecting the model train setup. I subbed to your channel and look forward to watching past episodes of this Amtrak series, and to future videos.
Thank you, Penny! With the world reopening, we are concentrating on returning to our love of cruising, however, there are 30 eps of Amtrak for you to enjoy, 7-ep Western USA (Feb-Mar 2021), and 23-ep Eastern USA, Aug-Oct 2020. Ep 22 of 'Eastern USA' spends parts of 3 days just in LAP. Enjoy both playlists!
Cheers,
Bob
Interesting story. I'm so glad Larry is doing better. Nice station, too. I have recently retired and I may start riding Amtrak. If I go through La Plata, I'll wave toward Larry's office.
It was great to go through there. Enjoy riding the rails!
I like this station. I like see 24 h camera. Paweł from Poland.
It's great. Ty for watching, and making comments on the full tour (Ep 22) of our Easter USA series.
thank you for the wonderful video and kudos to Bob Cox..greetings from Trinidad and Tobago,
Thank you, Doug! Glad you enjoyed it ☺️
@@InnocentsAbroad i sure did...one day i hope to make this a stop.
nice tour, yes its very clean inside, like in monasteries...probably not much people attend...
Many folks attend, very much avid fans of trains. Thank you for watching!
Very good! 👍
Thank you, Rico. I loved being out there and getting to see the station. Bob & 'Oscar' were fun to meet.
A great tour of a great station 😊
Thank you :)
From a UK railfan who spends a lot of time on the VRF railcam,La Plata being a favourite, lovely station building.
I wonder if there is any film of it in the 1950's ?
Hmmm, good question, Donald. I've never come across any.
Excellent Enterprising Endeavor. Hearty Greetings from India 🇮🇳 💐🤝🙏
Thank you 😊
Awesome video! Nice to learn a bit about La Plata's history, I'm from Australia but I watch the La Plata railcam daily watching trains pass by. I have subscribed, good luck on getting to 1K!
Thank you to you both!
Glad you enjoyed the video.
We have lots of trains and even more cruises on our channel. Enjoy 😊
Very interesting! Hope the new refurbishment does not alter the interior to much!
Agree- love the Art Deco the way it is.
@@InnocentsAbroad the art deco will remain
You forgot to mention the world's most famous Coke Machine. That's still there.
Or, great tour, thanks for making a quality video 😆
👏👏👏👏
Thank you, Red :)
thanks
You’re welcome!
the BNSF trains that go through are just super fast
They are indeed.
Excellent video that brings back pleasant memories of the several times my wife and I actually used the LaPlata Station while traveling on Amtrak sleeper trains. I wonder if the "Bob" that you met is the same famous "La Plata Bob" I had the great pleasure of spending time with schmoozing about trains in his amazing office, (we even exchanged some RR memorabilia!) FYI: Bob even has / had his name applied in the Amtrak onboard dinner menu for one of their selections. THAT says it all. What a guy !!! 😁👍👍👍🚂🚃🚃🚃
Hi David, absolutely it is that Bob.. we went over to his office, during a couple of days’ stay that you can see in our AMTRAK series “eastern USA”; episode 22 I believe - it’s a full tour of LAP the town and the lookout station.
LAP is a great place for train fans!
Thank you for watching 😊
I miss Oscar…… 😢
Me too, Ric!
Bring back Oscar I say!
Oh, Idris, I certainly agree with you! Thanks for watching :)
GOOD MORNING FROM GREECE .. BEAUTIFULL STATION..
Glad you liked the video 😊😊
