I enjoy train travel. Just got back from taking Amtrak to and from NY home to Raleigh. Took a cruise of New England and Canada out of NY. Posted some photos--including a few shot from the train--in the Photography group.

Several years ago my husband and I rode the Coast Starlight from Los Angeles to Seattle. Gorgeous scenery. We also rode Canada Rail from Toronto to Vancouver in the fall a few years ago. Also spectacular scenery.

Thanks for posting your video.

I took a trip this summer from Omaha to San Jose and back on the Zephyr. First time in a while but it won't be my last.

Raton Pass and Glorieta Pass are my favorite parts of that trip. Hope it survives Trump's henchmen.

Nice editing job. Makes me want to hop on a train. I did take the train from LA to Chicago back in the early 1970s. Incredible scenery!
