Absolutely beautiful I'm an Air Force veteran and a Long haul truck driver. Me and my wife are going to do a bunch of Amtrak cross-country vacations before we even do a cruise ship! Absolutely spectacular!

I love traveling by train. I've ridden on Amtrak a couple of times & enjoyed it each time. We need more Amtrak. Our country was made for rail travel.

[lessieh]

Enjoyed your video. Well done. Just finished my own long distance Amtrak trip last week, New Orleans to Charlotte, NC on the Crescent, Charlotte to Raleigh, NC a short 3-4 hour trip on the Carolinian and finally Raleigh to Tampa on the Silver Star. Roomettes on first and third legs of my trip. 54 hours with both layovers totaling just over 15 hours. Note delays on third leg added 3 extra hours.

I agree about the top bed rattling being irritating 😝 but the food was great, the attendants awesome and the travel enjoyable. Been traveling Amtrak for 40 years.

Been riding Amtrak for over three decades. Every kind of accommodation. Ridden every VIA Rail route too, trains in Europe, Russia, Australia, China, other countries too. I love Amtrak.

[debralavorata]

Rail travel is the only way to go, very scenic, comfortable, fun and most of the scenery is beautiful.From penn station to Niagara Falls, especially in the fall and winter, love Amtrak💯👍🏼❤️

[CodyCole]

I wish Amtrak came through my town. I’ve never taken a train ride, but would love to experience it.

[SuperDave]

Yay I been waiting for you to upload another great amazing riding the rails! 😊

[alimazimmer]

I roade aboard the Crescent in nNovember 2017. I stayed in a Viewliner. I am a hard core rail fan. I can hear the crescent pass through my town here in NJ everyday ON TIME too.

[inac]

Love this! I've been watching so many of your videos lately that whenever I read something, I hear it in your voice.

[JimDog]

Interesting video. I traveled by train from Baltimore to Washington DC back in the sixties when I was a kid visiting various interesting sites.

[Dcarnys]

That shot of the WAMTA is such a lucky catch!

[JayseGreene]

You got a great voice! Its very easy to listen to you and get all the info I need without the 1001 fluff pieces other reviewers take on.

[rajeevk.pathak]

Superb, brilliant narration...the sojourn comes alive! I have taken the Crescent several times during my stay in the United States, with 'break-journey' at different locations, rather than a single-shot journey. The video is informative, brings out aspects surrounding the journey "inside-out": in that, the inside configurations, and the scenery outside. It is heartening that people in the States, like those in my own country (India) have started taking the train. Like they used to advertise..."See America at the "see" level" ! Bravo, 'Lone Star' ! Please keep up the Good Work ! I cannot help but compare: Just like Peter Masella brings aviation alive, with the intricacies elucidated, Lone Star is a terrestrial analogue of Peter !!!

[patty]

This is great! I am so excited I will be riding in a sleeper roomette on the Crescent next month!

[spenceradams]

Glad you could use the video of you passing by hopefully one day I’ll get around to going on more long distance Amtrak trips

[petercole]

Looks like fun. Like to see the Northwest Run Thur Western Montana and Idaho..Middle of nowhere. BIGFOOT SIGHTINGS NEAR THE TRACKS. FUN. GREAT VID.

[stephenkeever]

Another "Well Done!" The quality of the audio (new microphone?) and the mixing with music blending in this video was stellar! I had a good laugh when you showcased and discussed the Acela, especially with that period electronic drum sound, "dush dush, " in the background. The drums and train were period matched. Very enjoyable!

[JamesPilkenton-secx]

Long time Amtrak afficiado here. I used to reside in Charlottesville VA and would ride to NYC yo transfer to the Vermonter. Now Greensboro NC is my home and im pleasantly surprised that i can travel directly to Charlottesville via The Crescent

[trainrailfan]

thank you for this video! Living in italy it's my dream to do a trip on an amtrak sleeper, hopefully I'll do it in the future

[robertbrand]

I have traveled a lot by train. Travel by train is scenic and if you like leisurely atmosphere is worthwhile. But the cars need a major upgrade with spaces and creature comfort. Advertise vacation packages. More upper berth space. Equal to the lower.
