I enjoyed my roomette roundtrip from DC to Orlando FL last December. I was in the Viewliner II both ways. I agree, the Amtrak hand soap does smell good lol.

Yes- I will miss having a roomette if I do another overnight journey in coach! New York to Tampa sounds nice, I have the Auto Train from DC to Sanford, FL on my list too

What was your favorite meal on this train? Also how many hours of uninterrupted sleep did you get on this train?
@SoloTravelPOV

The brownie was definitely my favorite part of the meal! I got the Italian pasta :) I was able to sleep for about five hours interrupted. But could definitely have slept longer if I wanted to! I am a deep sleeper 😴
I take this route all the time. Anything but coach from DC to PGH is throwing your money away.

Our amtrak trains are only good in the Northeast. Don’t bother taking them anywhere else.

That is true at the moment. Fingers crossed that developments in Florida and California will make passenger rail great there too! 🤞🤞
So is the overnight Amtrak train from Washington, DC to Pittsburgh worth it? Of course you never answered that question. Do not use a dishonest clickbait title for your pointless videos, please.

@@SoloTravelPOV First of all, you didn't "show everything about the journey" because you didn't take it overnight despite the title, and second of all, learn to be a grown-up and have the confidence to offer an opinion about something. Last of all, why would you ever need to book a roomette for just a 7.75 hour afternoon/evening trip? Oh yeah, to hide from people.

How can DC Union station be the second busiest?? I thought Philadelphia 30th St station would be number 2.
@SoloTravelPOV

I agree that it seems 30th Street Station would be the second busiest! In 2022, DC Union Station had 3.6M boardings and alighting compared to 3M at 30th Street Station. 2021 had even less of a difference with only 250K more between the two stations.
