I appreciate the info about the cities where the train stopped and photos/information about the stations themselves. That's not something I often see in this kind of videos.
FANTASTIC video! Sitting in Australia it is a marvellous lesson in American geography. Thank you very much. One question. What is the distinction between a “depot” and a “station”?
Not really much of a difference. From what I can find, depot is the building itself and station is the word for the location on the railroad. And historically there might have been a slight difference in freight service availability. But today a lot of people (including myself) use the words interchangeably.
@@squeakysalmon9465I usually hear(even to this day) people say depot for a station house building, and station for city/town(or specific location within a city) a train stops in. If someone uses these terms interchangeably, then they are not using each term correctly.
the highlights are going eastbound so you get the ride thru the park on very long climb out from Essex to Browning East Glacier. you feel the units workolumbia river going in to portland in the mornings you can sometimes see the fish jumbing as pass the dalles.

Excellent video.
Glad its not about features of accommodation on Amtrak but the actual trip itself.
Coach travelling is epic. 👍
Thank you so much for all the incredible time and effort you put into these magic journies!!

I went to Chicago before the pandemic! I was there in 2019! Way before they shut everything down.

Hello, what a great video!! Thoroughly enjoyed it. What rail travel guides do you recommend?
Footage from the seat and window. This is how train trip videos should be done. We want to see the views. Not some 30 minute tiktok. Great job.
excellent video!
