Here is a saying you might like: When ask if and would, never deny yourself the chance to say yes. You may just discover something about yourself on the way. It is just like the fool in tarot cards. You can be the fool and miss something beyond belief for saying no yet there is a chance of it being bad so no matter what it is better to be the fool that says yes then the fool that says no. So get out there and EXPLORE AND SOAR!

Travelling across the US by train with your friends, but more importantly with your parents was absolutely outstanding and the memories that were being made were even more outstanding. I felt like I was one of your buddies in the train travelling across the country with you. As a fellow Canadian I look forward to watching your across Canada by train.

Hey I’m Alaskan to!😊

Mike, I've been watching you for about 4 years now and you are such an inspiration. Even for this 73 year old lady. I love how thoughtful you are with your friends and family.Your gratitude for the life you have and the adventures you've been blessed to take is refreshing. This past Fall I took the California's Zephyr and was in awe of the beauty, and the peace on the train. One of the best parts of the trip besides the beautiful views of nature was the joy of meeting so many travelers along the way. I wish I knew how to video so that I could do a channel especially for seniors to let them know this is something they can do and for those who are home bound and can't travel. I love to share journeys across the country. Until I learn how to do that tech part, I'll just have to post pics for them. Congratulations on your growth and your success. Your videos are amazing and you deserve to have a great life.Thank you for sharing!

The quality of this series is what every KZread artist should aspire to. Almost as great as Michael Palin's travel films! I'm crying with joy at this last adventure.

At 85 and a couple of major heart attacks, my bucket (list) has been relegated to the shelf….but I LOVE to travel and especially by train, so your travelogues are especially dear I my heart. It was especially nostalgic for me to watch the Alaska Marine Highway segments. I made two trips to Alaska via the AMH. I liked my choice of itinerary a little better as we were able to do the Warangell Narrows into Petersburg and a day later the Icy Straits into Sitka…but I’d do AMH to Ak. over a cruise ship any day (I’ve done both). Now I’m excited to watch the canal boats in the UK….maybe……maybe…..ummmm… prolly not compatible with a wheelchair. Sigh ….so take great videos, you young whippersnapper!!!

Okay I am crying now, I loved this series but what I loved the most about this is that it didnt feel like this is your job, more like hey come along on my journey. What really sealed it for me was everyone you celebrated in this series, your parents, your friends and your crew. I could tell all of it was genuine.

I always get emotional when watching your videos. You are so aware of the people you meet and the people that help put this together. The greatest gift is to get a thank you for the things you do, and the recognition of your help to others. I can't wait for the UK series, I know it will be exciting, educational, and just a lot of fun. Congratulations on your success.

We took the Gold Star class from Anchorage to Seward for a cruise. We met several nice people, and even one couple ended up next to us on the cruise ship! Our narrator asked us to keep an eye out for wildlife and what side of the train. So, Mr. Cool here, when I saw three moose run away from the train, just pointed out the window and yelled "Moose, Moose, Moose". Our narrator translated for me, and most got their pics. Pay for Gold Star when you can!

We did this trip some years ago. A few notes: After leaving Anchorage and passing Wasilla ($carah Payme territory), Denali, formerly Mount McKinley, is visible and looms ever higher as one approaches it. The land approaching is almost at sea level, so the 20,000 feet of Denali is extraordinarily impressive. We had college kids doing talks along the way describing the history and current state of the state. We stopped in Talkeetna, where there is a sign made of pieces of driftwood alongside the one paved street in town that reads: Welcome to Beautiful Downtown Talkeetna. This is where one can hop a flight that takes you around the summit of Denali (on a good day) for the experience of a lifetime. No exaggeration. The train crosses many streams where we saw lotsa fish (salmon, I guess) and stopped in the middle of several nowheres where people got on and off. One could see houses in the distance where they were from or going to.

The train ride from Fairbanks to Anchorage was the best train trip I’ve taken. And on that trip we saw Mt Denali in all its spectacular glory

Talk about going out with a bang! You’re more than a train KZreadr, you’re Canada’s greatest storyteller! Sad it’s already over. It’s only train rides and yet I feel like I’m watching a Disney movie! If you count light rail as trains, then that tunnel is one of two as the Mount Washington Transit Tunnel in Pittsburgh, PA is shared by buses and light rail. Seattle’s Downtown tunnel was once shared too but now only light rail serves it. Another cool fact about the Anton Anderson tunnel is that it’s the longest highway tunnel in North America at 2.5 miles long! It was actually rail-only until 2000 so Whittier could be better connected. The train tunnel was built so trains could supply troops stationed there during WWII

Why is this content not on a travel show. Would be great on PBS or commercial TV station. Really the best quality and smooth transitions between segments. Vastly entertaining. Just wow. Thank you 🙏 😊

Alaska is blessed to have such magnificent beauty. I know this is meant to be a tourist train, but this is the closest Alaska has to Amtrak so if anything, this is proof that trains are important to Alaska and why Anchorage needs commuter rail! This series in general is proof that it's not about the journey, it's about the friends we make along the way. But as one chapter ends, another begins (or in this case, another series)!

Your channel somehow randomly came up on my KZread main page and I'm SOOOOO glad it did! As a born and raised Alaskan I wanted to see how you got from Florida to my home state of Alaska by train lol. I've watched all 10 episodes of this series and have loved each segment for how different and fun they've been and how fun you've made them. I started watching to see what trains in Florida looked like and quickly started learning things about trains because of your videos. Along the way in this series though I started to realize, yes the trains are awesome and so different and are part of the journey but, they are not the most important part of the journey. What I loved the most was your views on how the trains are a means of transportation to enjoy the moments along the way, enjoying the moments with your loved ones and with your new train friends. I loved this series and can't wait to see more of your videos and hopefully some day have the privilege and honor of traveling on an adventure with you or at least someone half as cool.as you. Just to throw it out there, and. I know it's a long shot but, I would be extremely interested in talking with you or your team about either joining you all for a trip, or coordinating some kind of special "travel Alaska bye (fill in thr blank) trip.

Thank you for this wonderful and wanderlust-inspiring series! One small correction: the tallest mountain on our beautiful continent has been officially renamed back to its indigenous name of Denali. It translates literally to “the high one” and matches the official name of its surrounding park and preserve, rather than be named after a president with little relevance to the mountain. I figured it would be a good tidbit to include, given the indigenous flare you added to the Canadian season of this series. Much love! Hope I can get out on the rails soon, I took my first long distance Amtrak this past summer!

As I've always heard and read, Denali translates to "Big Mountain", thus why many, including Alaskans themselves often would laugh or point out that saying Mt. Denali is redundant, as it would be saying "Mountain Big Mountain". This is the first time I've heard and seen it said to be translated into something entirely different, so I find it quite interesting to note.

Hey, DownieLive! What a great job on this second season of "Travels By Train". You know, the United Kingdom is the birthplace of railways, so there are many options that would make a great third series. I have not been to the U.K. myself, but I do know of a few rail places, such as the National Railway Museum in York, the Talyllyn Railway in Wales (the first preserved railway in the world), and the Ffestiniog Railway, also in Wales. Man, as a rail enthusiast, I wish I could join you on that. Keep up the great work, as always, and looking forward to "Travels By Boat"!!

What a pleasure you have served us! Thank you for taking us along with you..:)

Your dedication and exuberance, tempered with that insight, are inspirational. Im most moved by the way you treat others, like Father McDermott below, to tears.

You popped up out of nowhere and I'm glad you did awesome the train ride from Bellingham to Alaska was incredible I'm 64 years old disabled I'll never see this for myself watching your series is incredible thank you so much love it

I truly enjoyed every episode this season. I personally want to thank you for making an amazing series and I can't wait to see DownieLive travel by boat ❤

I can’t wait for the narrowboating series! I love the peace of comfort of the british channels so I bet it’s worth it!

You all need to come back to Alaska to see Denali! She wasn’t out in all her glory when you were here. Great fun watching this train series - thank you!
