Hello everybody, how are you today? I hope you are doing great because it is a fabulous day.

And today I'm gonna be talking to you about travelling Amtrak.

So if you want to know more about this I am in front of the Amtrak station and I wanted to come out here.

So that you can take a look at their station from last time.

I did a video on bright line, which is nano, urgent train and I showed you how that station looked I want you to take a look at this station.

These stations are both in Miami.

And of course, this is an older lady that checked.

Our luggage was super, super nice and very very helpful.

And also they do have special services for people who have limited mobility.

And since I'm gonna be traveling with my mother, she has limited mobility.

So she doesn't have to wait in line.

And they take her in a little golf cart to board the train.

So I thought that was let me give you some facts from Amtrak.

Okay, I found that it is a national rail operator, which connects America in a safer greener.

And healthier way, I guess that they're comparing at the airplanes, and it has 21,000 miles in terms of the route and it's available in 46 states, District of Columbia and three Canadian provinces.

Oh I, didn't know that how cool that means I can actually go to Canada on the train.

Can you imagine I wonder, how long it would take for Miami to get to Canada interesting facts we're gonna do a little tour of the train.

Oh there's more.

He thinks it's only one car I think they call it a caboose all right? And he wants me to go first.

If you look at it it's moving around and I have to go first that's, not fun.

You almost there are you looking at the manga? Yeah.

Thank you I'm just coming an expert I'm becoming an expert.

Okay.

So this is the area where people can like sit and hang out.

This is the hanging out area, not bad.

You can play cards.

You can play cards, and you can play dominoes great.

And this is like a little like the bar type of thing where you get snacks, nice, nice, hi, I, didn't.

And this is the other escaping area and that's somebody's, hot I want to wear it that you're either we're wondering, if my mom fell asleep at this point.

But anyway, I have to tell you everybody who works here is super super nice.

So yeah, the Train is not like bright line in terms of the modern news, but it's it's.

Nice.

People are nice and did you know that the train goes up to 150 miles an hour? Okay, Eric you hear that train.

Do you hear the horn that is for my friend Eric? This is a shout out for him and go check out his channel.

One of the things that I can't get used to want to trade one of the things that you have to prepare for where you're on a five hour train ride is what you're gonna eat.

So what I did is that I went ahead and I brought that I could eat and I.

Packed it up and I'm saving money.

Plus I am eating things that I can eat that are healthy for me, or at least to write a train I think everybody needs to write train at least once all right.

So this is one of the sleepers.

And the lady, the conductor was nice enough to show it to me.

Guess is the hold-down chair over here.

You have a bathroom in here with a shower, very nice.

You have I.

Guess, that's your bed that comes down.

Let me move back that's.

The bed that you bring down and I think this turns into a another sleeping area.

This is really cool I like this over here.

They have more storage area on the top and more storage area over there and have your trash can over here.

This is really really cool.

We have more storage area in here.

This is great for long trips.

And this is the little passageway that there was kind enough to show me this building.

It has a historic marker up front that I'm going to try and take a picture of.

But even if I don't, let me tell you a little bit about it.

This is from 1990, and it was originally called Amtrak.

The rail service was not called Amtrak.

It came together through a act that was written by President Nixon.

And and they also started receiving because there was a time where I guess transportation changed.

And people started taking cars planes, but some people wanted to save the railroad stations and the trains and I'm glad that they did I.

Am on the outside of this waiting station that's inside the station right behind me, that's where I was before and now I'm in the outside of the station, I guess, this is where people wait who don't want to be in the air-conditioning I, don't know, what they did do is that they have a sense on this area that you're not allowed to pass through unless you only open up this area once the train gets here.

So they have it pretty well, organized and I like the idea that you're allowed to wait either outside or inside, because you can feel a little cooped up at least I do when I'm inside.

And then let me show you.

They have these little shopping carts that you need to carry around it's too heavy for you.

You could always use the shopping cart, and they also have little carts buggies or both parts that are available for people that need help because of somewhat limited mobility.

So you could always come earlier and advise them at the ticketing and baggage check out that you need some help with your mobility and they'll.

Go ahead and they'll.

Take you then they also give you seating press, I am exhausted, but I think it was a great experience and I really really suggest that everybody take one train trip at least and research, the Train Huron and the history of train travel, I think, you'll, probably enjoy it as much as I did because I did enjoy it I really liked it and I hope that you liked this video, please subscribe, but more important than all of that I hope that you have a day filled with peace.
