The conductor giving the narration about the Moffat Tunnel does a wonderful job explaining the history, and the engineering of the tunnel and its effects upon the region. You may say that's his job to do that, but I have taken that trip through and heard nothing at all. Hats off to you Sir.

His job to talk all the way through the dark tunnel so claustraphoibic passengers stay at ease.

This conductor is really enjoying his job - and #5 is THE train I want to catch once in my lifetime.

Beautiful Scenery As Well As Narration. Doesn't Get Any Better Than This.

Massive props to the conductor!!! He did not have to tell this story, but he understands th gravity of the Colorado history to to tell it!!!!!! Colorado history superhero right here!!!!!!!!!!!!’

CZ5 Was one of the best train rides I've been on. Ty4 sharing this video!

WOW I had always been wishing and still do so. To be on board the train if possible on engine cab. As RIO GRANDE slogan says THRU THE ROCKIES NOT AROUND THEM. Nice job and what a great idea a tour guide inside the tunnel, introducing us to the MOFFAT TUNNEL itself. I congratalete the idea, the best tour guide TO HAVE BEEN choosen THE TRAIN CONDUCTOR.

The Moffat is 6.2 miles. The Swiss dug the Gotthard Base tunnel 35 miles through the Alps at a cost of $9.5 Billion. Opened in 2016.

Absolutely wonderful narration from the conductor! As Rodney Morgan Brown says, "Hats off to you, Sir!"

Took the ORIGINAL California Zephyr AND Amtrak's attempt. Absolutely no comparison between the Vista Domes on the original Zephyr and Amtrak's upstairs lounge car. Vista Domes let you see front, back and sides; you could see the track ahead and feel like you were the engineer as well as a sightseer. Also, absolutely no comparison between the service, accommodations, and food on the original Zephyr and Amtrak's version. Just a shame.

Well, what else can you do? Amtrak is government funded, and the government doesn't fund stuff like that, unfortunately.
