  • Part 2: Amtrak Roomette Tour • Staying in Amtrak's SM...
    In today's video, we tour Amtrak's bedroom on Silver Meteor 98 from Miami to Orlando. We discuss costs, amenities and whether the hefty price tag is worth it! Watch as we have breakfast and lunch, try out the bed and even take a shower to demonstrate the room's full potential for long hauls like to New York, which can take nearly 30 hours. Part 2 will be us staying in the Roomette, so be sure to subscribe!

    We've never been on a train and we're going on the Amtrak Empire Builder this summer. You were a great help. Thanks for posting this very informative video Mr. Franco.

    What train? I just traveled from Chicago to Seattle on Amtrak's Empire Builder. Wonderful experience, I would do it again in a minute. What was the cost of the bedroom? I didn't see it.

    Cool video. and nicer bedroom than the older viewliner cars.
    Hopefully Amtrak will extend the Sunset Limited back to Orlando, Florida from Los Angeles ... pre-Katrina.

    Very cool. I took the auto-train near Orlando to Virginia with my car and I had a roomette-it’s a fun experience.

    Beautiful! Spacious! Wonderful! You and your Wife Adorable! You guys may not understand what I am about say. This brings back memories of the old I Love Lucy show when they took a ride on a train! Wonderful! My Grandma took my sister on a train trip to New York. My Uncle took my brother on a train trip to see the Cleveland Browns play in Clevland Ohio! Wonderful! My step sister used to go back to New York after she spent the summer with us on Amtrack! Wonderful memories of the Amtrack Station standing outside!

    Excellent video. I have been thinking about doing this for years. I live in nyc wanted to go to fla n back, couple of questions if u dont mind.
    Do they serve vegan? Also that shower looks pretty crappy with the flow, but the last room u showed with just toilet is there a big difference in price between that one and the one u stayed in? Also is there a common shower? Thanks alot for your time and these great videos!!!!!!

    • @JoelFrancoVlogs
      @JoelFrancoVlogs  Год назад +2

      Thanks for watching! They have vegetarian options but I don’t think vegan. As for the last room: that’s the ADA room for people with a disability. Should be same price. The car does have a communal shower, which is what guests in the Roomette would use (see my latest video!)

    Just was gonna say, the toilet paper situation. Yea it sucks. But they use that specific toilet paper to prevent jamming up of the system. If you use thicker toilet paper, it may cause jams, and then the toilets on the entire train will not work for the remainder of the trip.

      Thanks for sharing. Which train were you on before you transferred? What train did you connect to? How long were each of your train rides staying in the roomette & bedroom and what was the total amount you paid? I’m currently planning a trip and just trying to learn as much as possible. Thanks again.

    • @JoelFrancoVlogs
      @JoelFrancoVlogs  Год назад +5

      Some stops are longer than others. There’s “smoke break” stops, shift change stops and other opportunities to stretch your legs and get some fresh air. I’d definitely only do a long haul in a room though. Couldn’t last in coach.
