    As a locomotive driver I cannot help but thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing the world how wonderful a journey by train is. And I just love how you include friends and family in your videos. So... Thank you!
  • For crying out loud… Someone give that fine man, his dad, his mom, his sister and the amazing team behind him an award already!!!
  • "It's over 10 hours" "But we get lunch" That's some first-class life philosophy right there.
  • @RaeTravels
    This one made me cry. I miss my dad a lot. He was my frequent travel buddy, and he would have loved this trip, and he would have loved your series. Never stop traveling with your dad. <3
  • @kng3785
    When your dad picked up that showerhead and said "Hello?", I both laughed and cried. That is exactly something my dad would do, in the way he did it. I miss him so much. These moments with your dad will be ones that you cherish for the rest of your life. Savor it. (Looks like you are 😊👍🏼) ❤️

    I'm 61 and lost my father 4 years ago. Take advantage of having parents as long as you can. Never know when it's going to end. Another great video. Really make me miss my dad.
  • I really misses by Dad when I see this vlog. Enjoy your time with your dad Mike.
  • I have to say, as someone with many hours on Amtrak I really do appreciate the completely, occasionally brutally so, honest reviews of Amtrak. They’re not perfect and have small quality problems here and there, but by god they’re trying. They do a real good job at what they do and it never fails to get a smile out of me
  • @indyracingnut
    I would give ANYTHING to take one more trip like this with my father.
  • I love your dad, he is a precious soul , not many like him, your a wonderful man for letting him experience this with you, safe travels!
  • @angelicam4781
    Papa Downie is the kind of genuine, positive energy we need in this world!
  • @jacybrazil816
    I couldn’t love your dad any more! I get so excited when he’s in your videos! I’m currently visiting all 50 states with my parents, they are the best travel companions!
  • @JohnLumagui
    Yay! It's a Papa Downie episode! We all could take a lesson from his positive attitude.
  • @velvet123
    Your dad is the sweetest / cutest man ever. Love that you took this trip with your dad, amazing memories are the best. I really want to do this with my mom now.
  • @theduckscp
    I laughed when at 15:34 the person in the background instead of shying away from the people talking to the camera like a lot of people do just walked by slowly and waved.
  • @cathykinn4516
    Your dad is the kind of Senior Citizen we all aspire to be - sprite, still up for everything & has a son who likes his company!
  • One day on this train, our conductor said, “this is the least amount of time we’ve been late all week.” Hahaha
  • @italiana626sc
    Oh wow - your dad is the best!! Please cherish him. ❤❤ Also, how cool to see Cesar again!!
  • @nicknack6042
    As a Texan, I loved this episode. :) It was nice to see you and your Dad's reactions to the heat, the riverwalk, the scenery etc. Glad you were able to see our big state.😀
