e Thank you for watching and the kind words, trying to show more of what Amtrak journeys can be like. Especially talking to strangers and learning about them and why they chose to travel :).

You ran into so many nice people and had such good energy for such an early morning trip. I’d likely be somewhere dozed off. LOL

This much leg room is not only in business class. I took the train from LA to Santa Barbara back in 2019 and I was so excited about the space. I loved it as well as the comfy seats.

Hey man it was great to meet you and chat a bit coming out of SD. Content is great and has a nice personal human touch. Your editing chop is on point too. I'm gonna ask that you get a better mic setup to improve audio volume, clarity, and consistent level. DJI makes a great LAV wireless pair that includes 2 mics on 1 receiver. You could wear one which will improve the audio when you are not talking directly at your camera and the other one you could hand off or sit somewhere when you chat the nice folks you meet. Thanks for sharing and keep it up.

Had a bad experience on this train about a week ago. Multiple delays due to trespassers on the track added up to several extra hours spent on the train. We were lucky to be sitting in the dining car, but other train cars were extremely hot and uncomfortable. Lots of angry passengers

Amazing video!
