Awesome video !!!! So the first room you showed is indeed the Handicap Bedroom, which is why it has the toilet with just a curtain separating it. The room on the other end is known as the Family Bedroom. The only bedroom on Amtrak that does not include toilet facilities but can accommodate up to a family of 5. From what I am told up to 4 comfortably but it can squeeze in 2 adults and up to 3 kids or 4 adults. Anyway thank you for taking the time to make this video.
This was awesome. Long ago, my (late) aunt took me on a train ride, from Alberta to British Columbia, but I don't remember it, because I was very young. I would like to go on a train ride in the future. Cheers, Nickolas! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️
I've taken the train from Dallas to Austin multiple times. It's a nice little trip. I always buy the coach seat and big up to the roomette or bedroom. It's a lot cheaper than buying the full ticket.
That was a bedroom. If you looked around the corner next to the single seat, there is a bathroom/ shower. I just took one from Austin to Mineola the first of February. It was a great trip. The staff was wonderful.
It’s not the Orient Express but it is an old fashioned way of traveling. We’ve done a few round trips before C-19 and they had table service and great food. ♥️
Thank you! Will you please be so kind as to share some of the cost ranges? What does it cost to go from Dallas to San Antonio with a bedroom, for example? Also, are guests allowed to bring their own snacks?
I’ve looked into travelling by train in the U.S. but it’s always been more expensive than flying. But I hate flying and would like to do it one day. I had a EuroRail pass when I backpacked through Europe long ago and I was able to use it for sleeper cars and do a lot of the traveling at night. Super convenient and saved money. Do you have to do the whole trip straight through? I’m guessing you can’t just get off, spend a day or two in a city and then hop on another train?
Awesome video of AMTRAK, I was on Amtrak from San Antonio to Dallas, I didn't get to experience the sleeper car cuz I didn't need it. I moved from San Antonio Texas to Boulder Colorado, and if I go to San Antonio by Amtrak I have to go by way of Chicago🤣 Overall I really did enjoy the video, I may have to go back to Texas soon, and would have to get a handicap room, cuz of cardiac issues. God-Bless on your adventures. AWESOME VIDEO 👏📸
Thanks Nicholas - I really enjoyed your vlog! I've been on a couple of basic sleeper trains in Australia and appreciated seeing the comparison. Keep up the great vids and can we look forward to more travel vlogs?
I’ll start riding again when they bring back the full style dining car. I never cared for airline frozen type food. I only use the Texas Eagle because that’s the train I can take to get home. Sorry Amtrak you shot yourself in the foot.
it is safe. the train does rock though. when you walk down the cabs you have to hold onto seats. if you get a sleeper cab it is alot smoother. i was able to have two bags .
I love the sounds of the train running and the horn, the horn and the horn lol! The room review is super helpful!

I've been on the eagle since Saturday morning in Chicago
Very cool, enjoy it!

If u don't remeber it how are you posting about it?
@@rocket_propellar5416 My (late) aunt told me about it. She said that she took me on a train ride when I was very young. That's how I know about it.

What do you mean by "big up"? Will you please share what this cost? (I'm really trying to learn 😊)
Cool video Nick 😎makes me want to go take a trip 👍
lol “the horn, the horn, and theeee horn 🤔and the horn” and “get the brownie.. just get the brownie ok!” hahahaha LOVE IT

How cool is this. Always wanted to take a train trip and this is some cool info!

You definitely need one of those train cars set up on a piece of land. It would make an epic house.

Is this from your original trip to Texas or is this a new trip? Ha, Nevermind I just watched and answered my own question. 🙂
Hey Nick hope all is well! Thanks for sharing!

I was on one for 36 hours from south bend Indiana to nassawadox Virginia
Really cool man! Looks awesome!
I will get the brownie ✋️I swear

I always thought it would be neat to take a train across country or maybe do 2 day ride somewhere
lets do this
Hi nic i really enjoyed video be good to do some more in the future on trains hope you and your family are well 😊
WHEN ARE YOU GOING ON AMTRAK AGAIN
The horn!
Very Nice Vedio and please keep makeing them

Would this be safe for a 73 yo woman traveling by herself from Houston, TX to Modesto,CA? How much luggage can you take
it is safe. the train does rock though. when you walk down the cabs you have to hold onto seats. if you get a sleeper cab it is alot smoother. i was able to have two bags .
I will like one day to travel in train
😊
