- How did Americans travel before AMTRAK? I spent 4 HRS in COACH Class on a 100+ Year Railway that began operating in 1905. The Historic Blue Ridge Scenic Railway is a gem that's located in Blue Ridge, Georgia. I've lived in Atlanta, Georgia for 10 years and I recently discovered this this train one week ago. I had to show you the experience!
My first train experience was riding the AMTRAK to New Orleans over a year ago on the Crescent Line. Have you watched my Amtrak train travel videos? • Amtrak Crescent from A...
Would you ride on a historic train ride like this?
(I plan to take more train trips like this in the upcoming weeks so be sure to SUBSCRIBE to see a different way to travel!)

Mike I thought about you this whole trip bro!!!! I can’t wait to get on a train with you very soon. People are so excited to be on trains again and I know we are going to have some fun. We are going around the world! ❤️
I was the train conductor on your trip (on the locomotive) and I hope you enjoyed the ride.
What an awesome ride! I enjoyed myself so much that I'm going to bring other friends that love trains. I can't get enough of it.
Your ability to bring out that positive energy in people makes your videos so enjoyable
Thanks for the love Tony. All my life I’ve always enjoyed meeting strangers and chatting it up with them. I’m so curious about how people are feeling and wanting to know more about their life.
Thank you Will for a great video. It was a pleasure to meet you in the concession car. It always brightens our day while working on the train to have such an enthusiastic and kind person ride with us!
Renee! It was so great meeting you. Your energy and love was amazing and you will see me again on the train very soon because I love it that much! Glad you enjoyed the video.
I love trains. This was great. Also beautifully shot and edited.
Thanks for watching and it was a great experience... I can’t wait for our next ride. I hope you ride along with us!
@@WillEdmond That's all I needed to hear!! I'm coming through!!! 🤣🤣🤣💖
WE LOVE THE BLUERIDGE RAILWAY!!!!!! We stayed at the Blueridge Treehouse last summer and took the train. So fun!!!♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
I can’t wait to do it again I’m going to take as many local trains as possible! Thanks for watching
Looks so cool!! Patiently waiting for your tv show man!!
You gotta do it now friend!!!! Miss ya. ❤️
Will Edmond! G'day from Australia! Another wonderful video. I can't help but smile along with you as you find such joy in life, and the people you meet along your journey. You are truly blessed to have the view you do; and we are too to be able to experience it along with you. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. now more than ever!
Thanks for coming along on the journey! I appreciate you.
Found your channel awhile ago from another one of your train videos. I'm also a train enthusiast. I love catching the train. Love your energy & how you get people going lol. Your style of video is pretty cool too. Keep um coming Will.
Thanks for this! Glad we are not alone. Train travel is relaxing and I’m riding through nature and an easy pace. Ohhh I’m getting the feels again. 🙃😂 Hope our paths cross on a train somewhere soon.
I love your videos. Especially this one. I think I’m going to this part of Georgia so that i can ride this train. I used to ride Amtrak as a kid and i miss it
Wow! Means a lot. I hope you get up there soon. It’s so beautiful now and the best weather this time of the year. I enjoyed myself so much that I’m going to do it again.
@@WillEdmond I’m definitely going to go before the year is gone. I could tell you enjoyed it. Oh quick question was it hard moving to a vegan diet?
Thanks to you 😊I took the trip today solo.. I enjoyed myself sooooo much 😘
I'm such a train lover and don't you just love the sound of the horn. I got caught up in your excitement. Awesome hospitality. Best wishes form the uk
Linda!!!! Omgggg when I’m in my bed and I hear and train I get a feeling. I’m glad I’m not the only one. Thanks so much for the love.
I love trains, and I loved this video!
Thanks for the love.. This was one of my favorite train videos. You can tell that people are happy to be out and about smiling again. Everyone felt like family!
We moved to Chattanooga during the lockdowns. Found Blue Ridge while driving North Georgia mountains. Have been waiting on them to start rolling again.
I was your photographer, such a pleasure meeting you! Come back and see us soon!!
Yesssss I remember you’ll be seeing us a lot!!!! We felt like family there.
Great video!! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. I have missed your videos and the wonderful smile. peace and love ♡
I thank you for being here means a lot and I can’t wait to make more videos be on the lookout I’m dropping a lot of them.
In the 80s I took a train excursion from Grafton West Virginia to Burnsville WV & back. It was an INCREDIBLE day trip. Stay BLESSED 💘
Yes! Wow you’ve been doing this for a while. You are a PRO! I’m going to take more day trips like this.
This looks like SO MUCH FUN!! I love trains so much. ❤️ Thank you for taking us along! 🚂 I would have done some damage at the Cuban place and the brewery! 🤭🍻
Lisa thanks for always supporting! I appreciate you a lot. The Cuban food was delicious and Anthony did do damage.. I had water. 😂
This video made me smile. I really enjoyed it, thanks for sharing. The scenery is beautiful
Glad you loved it. I enjoyed putting it together the smiles made me happier while editing.
Haven't done this ride, but looks you had a fun time. My U.S.A. train ride experiences aside from Amtrak (1989) were the classic Colorado/New Mexico services from Durango to Silverton and from Chama to Antonito. Also did the Georgetown Loop. These I did in 1995. Still have fond memories. Cheers from Michael in Melbourne, Australia.
Thanks for the love Michael! I love trains and I can’t wait to ride more of them. I hope you’ll stay around for the journey.
Nice train! I took a trip to Kansas City, Missouri last May 2021 on Amtrak from Longview, Texas.
Yo that’s Anthony David the R&B Singer who sings the hit song forevermore, and my mother plays that song till death.
I love trains
You and me both Todd! Thanks for the love.
Omg I loved this train I Will add on my bucket list thanks for sharing will
Hi Will. The Scenic Blue Ridge train sounds like a great trip. Next time we’re in the area, we will check it out. Thanks for the suggestion
When I can I always would prefer the train.
What a great video! I’ll be sure to check out some of your other videos.
I really enjoyed that, thanks. I can’t wait to travel again once the borders open. A ray of sunshine, mate.
The Cuban Lady is the best Cuban this side of Havana. May I suggest the pressed Tampa Cubano with a guava soda to wash it down. If you still have room left, get a guava empanada and a Cuban coffee.
This is awesome! I think my son and I will go next weekend.
Y’all definitely should. He would love it. It’s a beautiful journey
I am with you and your travel partners on this ride. Great to see you.
Appreciate you Mr. Downie!

How was it
Loved it. I’m definitely gonna visit when I go up to Georgia. You definitely need to check out the railway museum in Miami Florida. I love it it’s like stepping back in time. I’m sure you’ll have a great time.
😆 YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!!!!! Will is BACK! (Cue break dance)
You see me love?!? 🤣🤣🤣 and yes I’m back!!!!
Haven't been to Georgia yet, and would most def ride this train!
It’s very scenic too! I want to ride it during Christmas as well.
Will I'm so glad I discovered your site thru Mike Downie. You are an amazing host. You could make watching grass grow fun.
This would be a heck of a drive but after the Canadian border reopens try to Agawa Canyon train that runs north out of Sault Ste Marie. Ontario, twin sister city of Salt Ste Marie Michigan. It’s a round trip 228 miles to the Agawa Canyon where it stops for a few hours. Some people picnic or hike. The fall color tour is the most popular but it’s spectacular year round!
Yes that sounds like an amazing trip I hope to get back to Canada 🇨🇦 once everything opens back up. My good friend lives in Vancouver and we take trains a lot
Love it! I will be planning my trip soon. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm. You are a natural! It is so refreshing!
Thank you for sharing your videos
People have more fun than anybody
Just saved this spot on google maps, another awesome spot added to my future USA trip!
Hope you get a chance to ride soon!
New to the channel but great video!
