Welcome on board this great American road trip by RAIL!
2
Over the next two weeks, we're visiting the country's best national parks, all by Amtrak.
3
No cars, no planes.
4
We'll cover over 4,000 miles, passing through 11 states with stops in Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon.
5
Traveling a slow way means we'll discover the best America has to offer from the comfort of the train, but of course, it won't always go as planned.
6
Join us for our most epic, most ambitious, and most unforgettable trip yet.
7
Hello Jet Setters, I'm Jeb Brooks from GreenerGrass.com.
8
We're about to explore America's best national parks by train.
9
And you're coming along.
10
In this episode of the Great American Rail Trip, we're heading to Yellowstone.
11
It's nestled between Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana.
12
And while most everyone who goes there drives there, that's not an option for us.
13
Our journey starts in Chicago.
14
We're going to be boarding the California Zephyr.
15
It is Amtrak's most scenic, most epic route.
16
We have three rules for this experience.
17
One, we're only taking trains with a couple of surprises along the way.
18
Two, we're going to visit three of the country's best national parks.
19
And third, perhaps most importantly, we're going to show you something amazing in each one.
20
Visiting national parks by train is not the cheapest, it's definitely not the fastest, and it's for sure not the easiest.
21
But I think the fact that it's not the fastest or the easiest is the appeal.
22
It gives you a chance to slow down and enjoy everything that our country has to offer.
23
The national parks in and of themselves are amazing, but everything we're gonna see along the way is gonna be equally impressive.
24
I can't wait to share it with you, but let's get on this train and get this trip started.
25
First leg, the California Zebra for 34 hours to Salt Lake City.
26
And we'll be on board for 1,608 miles through five different
27
states before arriving in Salt Lake in the middle of the night tomorrow.
28
At least, that's what we hope will happen.
29
We're about 10 minutes to boarding and just made an announcement that we're delayed.
30
An indefinite delay.
31
Hopefully that means just a little bit.
32
Time will tell.
33
Since we're in an Amtrak bedroom, we could comfortably wait in the lounge.
34
And with Cash Cab on the TV, time did fly by, but we're hoping a delay this early in our trip is not a sign of things to come.
35
We were called to board about an hour late.
36
And here it is, the first train of the journey.
37
I have to guess this is not going to be the only delay on our trip.
38
I disagree.
39
I think we're getting rid of the one we're going to have early, smooth sailing from here.
40
That'd be amazing.
41
Let's go for it.
42
Welcome aboard.
43
I'm late departure here out of Chicago.
44
We had some HVAC issues with one of our coaches.
45
No air finish being so we needed mechanical to change out, replace that car.
46
So we late start leaving here out of Chicago.
47
Welcome to the bedroom.
48
This is the largest room category you can get here on Amtrak, and this is where we'll be for this first leg into Salt Lake City.
49
It's got everything you could possibly want.
50
The sofa turns into a bed, there's another bed that comes down from the ceiling, there's a sink, a toilet, and a shower in here.
51
Ordinarily, there's a chair right here, but it seems to be missing.
52
I'm not sure what happened there.
53
We call that an Amtrak oopsie.
54
Will there be more?
55
Probably.
56
Not doing this for 34 hours.
57
The missing chair does mean there's extra space in our room, and that means I can pull my suitcase off the rack downstairs and keep it up in the room with us.
58
Ordinarily, a bedroom can only comfortably fit one bag up here.
59
The funhouse mirror provided some entertainment, but not nearly as much as what we saw out the window.
60
Gablesburg's our first fresh air break.
61
We've got three minutes to stretch our legs.
62
And we were back on board just in time to leave Galesburg behind and soon cross over the mighty Mississippi.
63
This is Iowa, the second of 11 states.
64
And that also means it's time for dinner.
65
Meals for passengers booked into sleeper car accommodations, like us, are included in the price.
66
With dinner behind us, it's time to sort out sleeping arrangements.
67
I think I need to sleep in the upper bunk because, well, I'm a gentleman and you shouldn't have to suffer up there.
68
Yeah, but I'm smaller and more agile.
69
It's just easier for me to get up and down from up there.
70
Well, I think the only way to make this completely fair is to flip a coin.
71
Decide your fate tonight.
72
Heads.
73
Tails!
74
Tails!
75
Okay, so what does this mean?
76
This means I win.
77
I choose Top Bunk.
78
Alright, well you heard it here first.
79
I tried to be a gentleman.
80
I like the Top Bunk.
81
It's kind of cozy and it's my own little space up there.
82
Good morning.
83
It's about 6 o'clock in eastern Colorado and I think that means it's time to start 24 hours on Amtrak.
84
People often ask us how to pass time on a train.
85
We'll show you starting with coffee and a sunrise in the sightseer lounge.
86
7.30, time for breakfast.
87
Boy, do I need some coffee.
88
There was a lot of horn, a lot of shaking going on last night.
89
And that was a swing and a miss.
90
We got up there and they said wait 20 minutes for a table.
91
So we've come back to our room, got some coffee, which will pass the time pretty well.
92
This is their first time, believe it or not, traveling in the summer.
93
It's a different experience.
94
The train is quite full.
95
We've got some views.
96
The Rockies are out there.
97
We'll be in Denver in no time.
98
We were able to get a table just as we arrived in Denver, and with nearly an hour here, we'll even have time to step out.
99
It's 8.45, so it's time for a fresh air break here at Denver Union Station.
100
These are great opportunities to get off the train, stretch your legs, get some fresh air, just enjoy a little bit of off-train time.
101
9.15, nap.
102
Gonna take advantage of the bed still being down.
103
I already need one.
104
Unfortunately, for some reason, and I'm not sure quite why, Suzanne had a bit of trouble sleeping.
105
Now, naps could not take up too much of the day.
106
You see, this section between Denver and Glenwood Springs offers some of Amtrak's best scenery, and it all begins here, just outside Denver.
107
10.10am, film the Big Ten Curve.
108
This is pretty hard work.
109
The Big Ten Curve is a legendary feat of engineering
110
that allows massive trains like ours to begin to climb up into the Rocky Mountains.
111
1115 about to enter the Moffitt Tunnel at 6.2 miles long
112
should take about 10 minutes to get through whichever car you're in
113
when you're entering the Moffitt Tunnel you stay in to keep
114
those noxious views out 1145 fresh air break in Fraser Colorado Feels like we're already in a national park.
115
1230, lunch.
116
Thinking Burger.
117
Meals in the dining car are always a highlight of any Amtrak adventure.
118
We've met so many fascinating people who share our love of train travel.
119
The river rafters along this section have developed an unfortunate greeting for Amtrak passengers.
120
Thankfully, the anglers are a bit more respectful.
121
It's 2 o'clock.
122
Best thing to do on Amtrak is just watch the world go by, and that's what we're doing.
123
We've tried a couple of times to get in the Sightseer Lounge, but it's just been too crowded.
124
We haven't been able to find space, unfortunately.
125
We're traveling in mid-August.
126
I guess summer is just a busy time, So follow our advice from the past and travel in the shoulder seasons if you can.
127
What better do you enjoy the sights with than a little afternoon cup of coffee?
128
Cup of Joe.
129
We'll switch to something stronger a little bit later.
130
That's possible.
131
2.30, time for a shower.
132
I'm just kidding, we're only on here for a day, so even though we've got this great en-suite, I'm not going to do it.
133
Instead, we played cards and Suzanne won again.
134
We're coming into Glenwood Springs and the way I-70 is built here is absolutely incredible.
135
I mean, check this out.
136
It's 4 o'clock.
137
Happy hour.
138
We purchased drinks from the cafe car, which is open to all passengers on board the train.
139
Hopefully there's time to hop off here at Grand Junction and grab some groceries while we're here.
140
You see, we'd heard about the special peaches sold here in the station, so I jumped off to grab some.
141
There was only one left, and it had Suzanne's name on it.
142
It's Palisade Peach.
143
It's 545 in Grand Junction.
144
We finally found seats in Sightseer Lounge.
145
And our timing was perfect.
146
Sit on the left side of the train for fantastic views of Ruby Canyon.
147
You see, there's no road here.
148
The only way to see this is on foot, river raft, or by rail.
149
Welcome to Utah, our fifth of 11 states.
150
7 o'clock, dinner time.
151
Except it's not in the dining room.
152
Let's explain.
153
You see, earlier in the afternoon, we heard an announcement of the loudspeaker.
154
Remember that broken HVAC that caused a delay out of Chicago?
155
Well it seems to have spread to the kitchen.
156
It is unsafe for my chef and food specialist to continue to work under those conditions.
157
It does go against FDA safety rules.
158
So what they're going to do is they're going to provide boxed meals from the dining car for dinner tonight.
159
I am not sure what it is.
160
We do not know quite yet.
161
As we've always said, Amtrak is a guaranteed adventure and this is yet another one.
162
Amtrak, you never know what to expect.
163
No aircon in the dining car?
164
It's another Amtrak, oopsie.
165
What did I tell ya?
166
Dinner turned out to be from McAllister's.
167
We think they were brought in from Grand Junction, and we definitely appreciate the gesture and agree it was too hot to work in there.
168
But unfortunately, these had just sat around so long that they were no longer very good.
169
Hey, at least it's not the Amstew.
170
It's kind of fun.
171
It's like a picnic on Amtrak.
172
It is, it's true.
173
And I know that they went to a lot of work to make this happen.
174
I mean, look, if the kitchen's too hot to cook in, it makes total sense.
175
Look at the size of this cookie.
176
As big as my head.
177
Eight o'clock.
178
Time for sleep.
179
Well, a nap.
180
I'll see in a bit.
181
You see, we've got to wake up around midnight to get out in Salt Lake City.
182
It's 1245 in the morning and we've made it to Salt Lake.
183
Our commitment to avoiding private transportation is real.
184
Despite the late hour, we are walking from the train station to our hotel.
185
It looks like a 14-minute walk, so totally manageable.
186
Yeah, that Uber tried to stop and pick us up, but no, no, no, no. We are walking.
187
So all that puts us here into Salt Lake about an hour and a half later than planned.
188
Could have been better, could have been worse.
189
The nature of Amtrak travel, just go with the flow.
190
Part of the fun.
191
Valet's closed.
192
We have to self-park.
193
1.30, time for bed, finally.
194
This bed is so comfy.
195
Good night.
196
And day three of this journey means our first bus.
197
Next leg, about eight hours in the Salt Lake Express.
198
Next stop, West Yellowstone.
199
It'll come as no surprise.
200
There's no food on this bus, so we're going to stop at a little shop around the corner here, grab a couple of sandwiches to go, and then make our way over to the bus stop.
201
Are you ready for the day?
202
Yeah, this walk certainly feels a lot different in the daylight.
203
It's like Red Paradise, guys.
204
Sandwiches?
205
Check.
206
The bus station is right next to the train station, so this is a reverse version of the walk we had last night.
207
So like Suzanne said, looks a little better in the daylight.
208
And I feel a little less tired.
209
Yeah.
210
A real bed makes a big difference, doesn't it?
211
Let us know in the comments, are you team two-wheeled luggage or four-wheeled luggage?
212
So I got kind of curious
213
and I plugged in our route today into Google Maps to see like how far it was.
214
It's 322 miles, 4 hours and 45 minutes.
215
Our journey on the bus today is going to take 7 hours and 40 minutes.
216
The Salt Lake Express maybe isn't so express.
217
We're in it for the adventure, the scenery, and the experience of seeing America's national parks by rail and by bus.
218
Your favorite.
219
I guess so.
220
And there she is, the first but not the last bus of this trip.
221
The Salt Lake Express is a private shuttle service operator with a pretty extensive route network around the American West.
222
This next leg of our trip will cover 237 miles through Utah and into Idaho where we'll stop in Rexburg.
223
We'll change buses there and travel 83 more miles into Montana.
224
Here we were the only passengers at this the first stop of the day
225
which meant we had our pick of seats
226
but don't worry the bus is gonna fill up as we make our way north.
227
Next stop West Yellowstone not quite we've got a few in between here and there.
228
Yeah we've got to stop downtown first and then we got to stop at Salt Lake International Airport.
229
Fun fact you can actually there's one flight a day on Delta from Salt Lake to West Yellowstone.
230
Opa!
231
Not for us though not for you we are here for you as we take this eight hour journey.
232
We chose initially to sit on the left side of the bus
233
because we figure we're going north so the sun will be on the right side
234
but there's so much more leg room on the other side I think we're gonna move over there.
235
Suzanne is bringing out the greener grass tape measure to be sure.
236
19, 12.
237
We're gonna move over here.
238
Salt Lakes Express offers an app to track our progress and there's even a bathroom on board, which we avoided.
239
Last chance to get out of the airport?
240
No, we are committed.
241
We are 100% taking the bus.
242
The journey is the destination.
243
Peace be the journey.
244
Is that your favorite movie?
245
Yeah.
246
We settled in, and since the bus was still pretty empty, I moved across the aisle.
247
We made a few more stops along the way, including one where we had time to get out and stretch our legs.
248
The bus is great.
249
There's a light, there's a little air vent.
250
It's got everything you could want.
251
There's even a footrest.
252
We take a break about every hour and a half to step off someplace with a bathroom.
253
In this case, we're stopped off at a place with a Dairy Queen, so Suzanne's grabbing some quick ice cream.
254
Blizzard time.
255
Is it even a road trip without an ice cream?
256
I don't think so.
257
So, got some Dairy Queen.
258
Gonna do this thing.
259
Okay, now let's try not to miss the bus.
260
Don't wanna be stuck in the Brigham City.
261
But maybe we do.
262
Seems kinda nice.
263
Cookies and cream, by far the best ice cream flavor.
264
I will go to battle for that, for sure.
265
This is delicious.
266
Hits the spot.
267
This might be my lunch.
268
Deb?
269
That's number six, eleven.
270
Soon enough we were ready for a full lunch, so we pulled out that bread paradise.
271
We're about six hours into this journey and just outside Idaho Falls
272
and you know feeling pretty good just giving you a quick update.
273
We will change buses in Rexnord?
274
Rexburg.
275
We will change buses in Rexburg, Idaho, to make the final push into West Yellowstone.
276
Now, about 25,000 feet over my head
277
is the airplane that left Salt Lake City just a few minutes ago
278
and will be touching down on West Yellowstone well before we arrived.
279
It's all good because we're enjoying the scenery.
280
Before we knew it, we pulled into Rexburg where the second bus, really van, of this journey was waiting waiting.
281
This is an easy transfer on to West Yellowstone.
282
The hour and a half journey included a great view of the Tetons.
283
And Montana marked our seventh state of this trip, but I wasn't quite sure of that.
284
Thanks to that noble steed right there we've made it to our sixth state, maybe seventh state.
285
I'm not really sure I can't remember anymore.
286
Anyway we're in Montana, wait until you see where we're staying tonight.
287
I'm gonna head over there and show it to you now.
288
Welcome to Under Canvas here in West Yellowstone.
289
Now Suzanne does all of the booking for us.
290
She makes all of our hotel plans, so I was really surprised when we came here.
291
We're staying in a tent.
292
Now it's a really nice tent, but it's still a tent.
293
Let me show you what I mean.
294
Now this is called a deluxe tent, and let me show you everything.
295
There's a great seating area and a fantastic king-sized bed, exactly what you'd expect in pretty much any hotel room anywhere.
296
There are a couple of differences though.
297
For example, there are no plugs.
298
Instead, they've given us battery chargers for our cell phones or whatever devices we've got, along with the lights by the bed that are really lanterns.
299
The shower is right here and is, well, shall we call it basic?
300
I guess is the word for it.
301
But it'll do the trick.
302
Now the question is, is it better than or worse than Amtrak?
303
At least it doesn't move.
304
Now the toilet is right here.
305
I don't know how many of you like to have hotel rooms with doors on your toilets.
306
Well this is not your place because I'm in and I'm out.
307
In, out, no door, we'll make do.
308
Okay now let me show you the key.
309
Now this is the clutch thing.
310
I am very glad that it is quite warm here in West Yellowstone
311
because there's also a the heating source is a fire.
312
Now it will This will come as no surprise to those of you who have been around the channel for a while.
313
I don't know how to start a fire.
314
Hopefully I won't have to find out tonight.
315
Moment of truth, how do you feel about my lodging selection?
316
It's innovative.
317
I've never seen anything quite like it.
318
The bathroom situation will be a test of our relationship.
319
Well, we've had worse.
320
Hey, there's more distance between the toilet and the bed here than in a view liner.
321
It's very true.
322
This is an upgrade.
323
Under Canvas is sat in a beautiful meadow along a peaceful creek, and it turned out to be a great place to stay.
324
The restaurant offers an impressive menu, locally inspired dishes that definitely hit the spot for us.
325
After a great night of sleep, we woke up early, filled our coffee cups, and made our way over to Yellowstone National Park.
326
Now, we hired a private guide here, because unlike the other parks we'll visit on this trip, there are no shuttle buses operating at Yellowstone.
327
At 2.2 million acres, this park is huge.
328
Not only was it the first national park in the United States when it opened in 1872, but that also makes it the world's first national park.
329
It's home to more than half of the world's geysers and hydrothermal features.
330
I mean, these things are literally everywhere.
331
But one stands out, and it's Grand Prismatic Spring, the park's largest hot spring.
332
It earns its colors thanks to microscopic organisms that thrive here.
333
But there's more to Yellowstone than geothermal features.
334
Just a short hike away from Grand Prismatic, you'll find the 200-foot-tall Ferry Falls.
335
Trains, buses, days of travel has brought us here, And boy, the payoff, it's worth it.
336
Like every national park, there is so much to see here, and this is completely worth adding to your bucket list.
337
And the fact that we got here by public transportation is pretty epic.
338
But hey, we got to stretch our legs some more, because we've been on trains and buses kind of a long time.
339
Yeah, a lot of sitting yesterday, the day before, the day before that.
340
So let's keep on moving.
341
But there's one site here that stands above the rest, at least in terms of fame.
342
Here it is, the most famous site in all of Yellowstone.
343
Let's watch Old Faithful.
344
It's called Old Faithful because of just how predictable it is.
345
It erupts every 44 minutes to 2 hours, but on average, we'll see it erupt every 90 minutes or so.
346
But there's a helpful clock so you know exactly when to keep your eyes peeled.
347
Now eruptions like this shoot between 3,700 and 8,400 gallons of boiling water up to 185 feet in the air.
348
However, the highlight of our time in the park may not be quite as famous as Old Faithful, but at the end of this trail, we discovered Imperial Geyser.
349
It may only shoot water up to 15 feet in the air, but the color was stunning.
350
And best of all, we had this entire place to ourselves.
351
Our time here in Yellowstone is coming to a close, but worry not, there are more parks to come.
352
Our journey continues between now and the next time.
353
See you on the rails!
354
This time on the Great American Rail Trip, we'll continue to face problems and disruptions as we find ourselves on more trains
355
and buses to try and reach another national treasure.
356
Can we make it to Yosemite?
357
Don't miss our next episode to find out!

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
