Step aboard Amtrak's Sunset Limited from Los Angeles to New Orleans. I'll show you what the excitement of a train trip is all about. Includes view of wheelchair accessible compartment. Due to video size, Part 2 is the next video.

This route needs to be double tracked. A track for each direction of travel. All the starting, stopping and running slow just to finagle past on-coming trains is at times frustrating. I've been on this train when heavy freight traffic forced the train to stop twice for 4 hours waiting for crew changes, The present 25mph average speed is just too slow.

Awesome video. Thanks for making it.

Love your video! Nicely done and I love the narration :-)

Very informative, much thanks. Boy those sleeper compartments are a lot smaller than they looked on the diagram on the Amtrack website!

That was an awesome video Cruise Maven about your amtrak sunset limited trip. I've learned alot just by watching it. In fact, I'm currently planning my trip on Amtrak from Houston, TX to San Diego, CA this July. I'm so excited to do this. I've always wanted to see the Southwest part of the country and thought the amtrak train would be the best way. Your videos have helped me imagine how it will be and I can't wait ! Thanks CruiseMaven

CruiseMaven, that was an excellent video on Amtrak's Sunset Limited and its amenities! If only Amtrak would restore the Sunset Limited eastward past New Orleans to Orlando (the Sunset Limited's original eastern terminus before Katrina in 2005) it would be a great cross country trip.

@EdRingwald Thanks for your nice comment. I agree, it would be wonderful to have a transcontinental train again. But after speaking with several people at Amtrak (from train crew to executives) I have the feeling it isn't going to happen any time soon. Thank you again for watching my video.

I must say, of all the train vids on Youtube, yours is one of the most comprehensive out there. I'm thinking of riding the Coast Starlight sometime next October. When was this video shot?
