This guy is super underrated! You deserve 100,000 subscribers
Thank you for the kind words 🙏
I took this train to Niagara Falls from Penn, it was nice but so long. I recommend you bring a bunch of chips for the ride lol
I defiantly need to start bringing snacks for sure!
New subbie.The skyline ceiling looked so cool at Penn Station and you spoke to a lot of people.
Haven't done that trip since I was a child. I think you should do a tour of a few of the cities along the way like Yonkers, Albany, Rochester and Buffalo. If you are travelling to the Caribbean, you should try St. Vincent and the Grenadines. They have a Carnival in July.
Thank you for the support, it really means a lot!! Yes, I did not expect the ceiling when I walked in 😳. Yes that’s the plan during the fall, when the leaves change!! Ohhh carnival would be fun
Bro! You really just gave me my next trip in the USA. I adore train travel in Europe so I must give it a try in my own country! Great work King! Your content is A1!
Appreciate the kind words bro!! Defiantly worth the journey, then you can take trains while in Canada. Toronto to Ottawa - Quebec City -Montreal - NYC.
Davion, nice to see you on U.S. soil! Please do a video of all the smoke break cities you visit in any state you pick. I absolutely love that idea you came up with. ❤😊 Very interesting ceilings at Penn Station. I hope you share a video with us on your trip to Toronto, Canada. Will you be riding VIA rail Canda? Thanks so much for all you do!! I absolutely look forward every week for your videos. Peace and love!❤️📣📣👍
Hey, sadly I didn't have time to make a video, just met up with some friends. More train videos in Canada coming in June. Yes ill be riding Via Rails new trains. Thank you for the kind words as always
Have done this, Love the ride, thanks for sharing your’s 🙏🏼❤️
Right! A solid training ride. Thank you 🙏
I did this before several times , But I have to try Business Class.
Davion, it’s the train tunnels, and the basement from what was left of Penn Station. That’s under Madison Square Garden.
They did a beautiful job changing that old post office to be a train Hall. There are still plenty of beautiful old train stations left in the USA. But they’re not in the really big cities.
For example, my Amtrak station in Minnesota is in St. Paul. About 10 years, we brought back to life the old Saint Paul Union Depot. We spent quite a few years working on it, bringing it back to life. But sadly like most Amtrak stations. It only has one a day each way.
There are still a lot of train stations there. You just gotta know where to look
They really did do a beautiful job!! Im going to have to check out yalls train station soon!! I want show Americas beautiful train stations!!
Just to clarify: The Farley Post Office was converted to Moynihan train station. It’s an annex to Penn Station. That’s where the Amtrak ticket office and waiting room is located. LIRR also has a ticket office and waiting room at Moynihan.
The majority of Penn Station is under Madison Square Garden. It’s cramped and congested. Lots of unsavory people loiter there. It’s served by NJ Transit and the LIRR. Amtrak can be accessed from this portion of Penn Station.
Thank you for this comment!! I was not sure if the post office was specifically converted into the train hall! Thank you. 😊
Your edits are on point Davion. Vids are lookin polished. I agree about the windows. They need to elevate their give a $&@? where overall cleanliness is concerned. I can’t recommend the train from Podgorica to Belgrade for that same reason. Cheers.
Thank you for the kind words :)! Yeah I wish they cleaned the windows, whats the point in having them if you cant see out of them?? I have to go to Belgrade someday :)
If you are able to get the Amtrak credit card. Worth it for the point bonus when you buy tickets but you'll get some Metropolitan Lounge passes.
I was thinking about that, do you have the card?
@@DavionWest , yes FWIW I have teh $95 annual fee one, not the free one. It good for Amtrak tickets and the bonuses you get on Amtrak purchases but for other spending its mid tier for points. If you are riding Amtrak a lot it worth it though.
Hey nice Video 📹 Bro💯
Appreciate it bro 🙏
Awesome video! I’m about to do this journey on Monday! This will be my second time using Amtrak, the first was from NYC to Fort Lauderdale, FL last summer.
Thank you for the kind words!! I hope you enjoy your journey 🙌🙌 ! I have to take the NYC to Florida route someday
@@DavionWest You’re welcome! It’s called the Silver Meteor. It’ll take you all the way to Miami.
@mryardiedescendant bet!!!! Thank you 🙏
Gonna be taking to Maple Leaf from Poughkeepsie to NYP on the 25th, this is going to be awesome!
🙌🙌…. Haha I remember that stop! Have fun on the train, meet and talk to some new people
How did it go?
@Alt-Key_Here It was pretty good! Even though it arrived at POU a few minutes late, the overall experience was calming. It was going pretty fast as well! The bathroom is also decently clean. The crew is awesome too
Nice video 😊
Thank you for the kind words ☺️
Awesome video. Suggestion for your next trip. Scotland. Amazing country and great train rides to the highlands. Home of Harry Potter.
Yesss that is high on my list!!! I went to Scotland last year but didn’t get tickets earlier enough :(. So next time for sure
Hi bro..m travelling too soon..can i carry 28 inch luggage bag with me inside coach as i will board from niagra falls ON
According to Amtraks website,
two carry-on items, 50 lbs. (23 kg) and 28 x 22 x 14 inches each
Thnx
@azizaltaf2146 no problem, have a safe journey and have fun.
I have a question: when you are showing the coach seat, you said in coach you get 1 US plug outlet and in business class you get 2. In coach, are you required to sit next to someone? Because if I'm sitting next to no one, it would be as good as sitting in business class
You are not required too, but of course if its a full train then yes you will be required too. But People get off at big stops. So either way you should be able to find two open seats depending on how far you are traveling.
You can get on the train early with business class?
For us, we didn’t get on the train first sadly. But on other Amtrak routes they let business class on first. It might just have been that day, that they didn’t let us on first.
✌🏾
Nice suitcase. That is a Canadian company!
Thank you I love it! My wallet is also Canadian! They make great products!!
It's still a post office...
Yes^^!!
@DavionWest I work at Hudson yards. I'm literally here everyday 😢
