Thats pretty cool to get up in the cockpit with the drivers! I have been curious to see what a train looks like up there, Was you limited on how long you could be in there Absolutely beautiful outside of the city. The hills of the countryside is really nice to see. No matter where you go you always find some dude hawking shit and wants roo much ot wants to sell you too much. I believe they will do alomst anything for a buck haha

#7 great video, the train trip was really great, I can see why folks want to take the ride. 100 seems to be the magic number when you buy anything. Room a little damp ? can't do much in humid weather. Water not on ? In our resort in Lapu Lapu the water comes on about 5am, maybe a little sooner, off by 11 am, back on around 4 pm. You plan your water usage around those times. Big surprise when it is on all day. We have a several thousand gal reserve water tank on our property. Got to keep the plants watered. Your videos are getting better and worth the wait each week. Thank you.

husband speaking - officially 81 on the 18th. Mr. Marco, you're here - YES, it is 5:03 pm in Lapu Lapu, just waiting for the sun to set a little more so I can walk the dogs then come back and finish my train ride. HANG ON !

Hello Mr. Holms...It is a shame to see the way you try to increase your view count based on one incident. It is clear that you don’t have any idea about the demand for railway tickets in Sri Lankan railway. I believe you definitely don’t have idea how difficult to reserve a ticket in last minute. This is mostly an impossible task even for locals except for Thursday and Saturday since there are more trains scheduled in those two days of the week. Besides, as a part of the train journey, sometimes drivers allow people in front of the engine as a curtesy. It’s not a magic as you think.However it is clear that you’ve been cheated by someone;apologies for that if so. But we don’t appreciate the way you use this one incident to beg views in your channel. It is far more respectable if you beg at Ella town than seeking view for this kind of shitty posts.
