Thank you for reminding us of one of the most beautiful train trips on the east coast. We took this train in 1976, and still have very fond memories of the trip.

I have since 2009 moved out of the USA but when i lived in New York City i would travel by this train to Montreal. I could never understand why a route with the most gorgeous scenery didn't get special observation decks. The major problem was the Canadian freight trains had proprietary rights ro the two tracks ai when encountering a freight the Amtrak has to move to the side until the freight passed. One time when entering an empty train at Penn Station the conductor forces everyone into a crowded car and would not let a person into the seven or eight empty cars. Horrible! Another time the train back to New York City ran into a heavy snow storm and what was supposed to be a six hour trip turned into sixteen hours with no food aboard as it had run out after five hours. What happened was the heavy snow had knocked trees down onto the tracks and the train had to stop and the trees cleared. For those like me who enjoyed the fresh air, a step outside of the last car was an enjoyable way to take in the scenery but uh uh, the enforcers would come along and say no longer permissable. Also I would take a bedroom car to San Francisco with my dog in my room but once Amtrak was given the railroad all animals were relegated to baggage.

😊 I love amtrac🎉 this video is the best!

Wonderful capture. Love it. Greetings Joe 😊

Nice job on this!!!!!! Great footage!!!

I took this train in 1993 and the views and experience were wonderful. Reserved the last possible dinner so that I wouldn't be rushed and was seated with a fascinating elderly woman, and we talked and drank the night away while taking in views of the hudson

I want to do this someday. Flying has become such an expensive and uncomfortable experience.

Superr !!!

Beautiful scenery as anyone who has spent time in Upstate New York would tell you. It is just a question of whether you want to drive The Northway or not.

taking this from montreal to nyc tomorrow!

Need a mic in the end for the review.

It was discontinued during the pandemic; when was this route reopened?!

and sadly, this train has not run all summer due to track conditions in Canada. You may have caught one of the last trains for some time.

When do you have to present passport and go through customs?

Was on this route in 2023 and they only go 30mph once you cross into Canada. Makes the trip much longer than it needs to be

i am from albany grew up on south pearl street

Please how much train tickets.

How much was the trip

Can I get a roomette on this trip?

Did it take 12 hours on train?!?!

I want do it

Would like to take it

Could not hear the comments!

Do we need a passport for this or is a real ID ok?

L'Adirondack d'Amtrak est loin d'être un train de classe internationale, c'est tout au plus un train local pour relier la population du nord de l'État de New-York à Albany ou NYC... Dans mon cas 13h d'un voyage interminable alors que ça aurait pris moins de 7 heures par l'Interstate 87 et le NJ Turnpike en auto...

bruh it gets cancelled every so often...

This train ride sucks. It makes no sense for this train to take 10-12 hours to get from one city to the other. Pathetic speeds north of Albany, and even more pathetic speeds of 5-10 miles an hour when you get across into Canada. a 45 min ride from Rouses Point NY to Montreal QC takes 3 hours on this train.
