Having never taken Amtrak overnight before, we didn’t really know what to expect. While a sleeper room is certainly nicer, sleeping in coach is a great way to save money while traveling.
Well done, guys! I enjoyed all the commentary of your personal experience - adds a nice personal touch. It allowed me to travel vicariously through your video.
Well done Mason and Kelly! Great quality and a pleasure to watch! Really excited for your travels and thank you for sharing them with the world!
Thank you!
Earplugs, pillow, and a sleep mask? Not sure why people doing this don't use this...I'm sure it could be more comfortable. Maybe your first time.
Those things could certainly help! It was our first time overnight on a train, and we did sleep a little better the second night, but that’s a good suggestion. We didn’t have pillows this time around due to packing space, but the other two are certainly more mobile.
Great Job Travel
You caught a nice view of the F45 (Blue and white train engine that has been converted into a B&B like hotel) at 5:53. That is on my todo list for trips. Go to Glacier and stay in the train engine each night.
We would love to stay both in the locomotive and one of the cabooses on site at some point!
I miss being able to travel across America.
It’s such a beautiful country! We know we won’t be able to see everything we want to, so we’re thankful for every opportunity we have.
