Riding on the Amtrak California Zephyr in the High Sierra - Donner Lake into the Summit Tunnel. 🚂
More trains are in our future. We want to ride the Trans-Canada VIA from Vancouver -> Toronto next!
Joe 📷 🖖🤨@leo Such a shame that we don’t have real high speed trains here in the USA.
@Joe I agree. Riding the Shinkansen at 180 mph from Osaka to Tokyo was a real eye-opener.
But to Amtrak's credit, the Zephyr was right on-time at every stop (and early into Reno) and reached speeds of 80 mph on the flats (slowed to 30 mph as we climbed into the mountains, of course!).
@leo I love riding Amtrak, but it is outrageously expensive. I used to take the Acela from NYC to DC and it was fun.
