    I hate the train wraps and have complained to Brightline CEO and Orlando station manager and hope you do too.

      yet these trains are pretty rare in europe if available at all. I've traveled all over the continent and never seen these locomotives with an engine in the front.
      in europe they're usually Alstom or stadler which are EMU units and most of the railways in europe are electrified which allow for a quiet and fast ride. the US only has the north east corridor electrified.

    As much as I appreciate Brightline service, we should be honest in that 125mph for a 40-mile segment does not really qualify as "high speed." Still, they need to expand to many more corridors and build ACTUAL high speed railways.

    Hey Tony. I really enjoyed the vid. I must reveal that my buddy and I rode the Brightline from Miami to WPB the very first week it went live to the public. It's probably unbelievable that the ticket price was just $10 for the opening weekend. Inside the Downtown Miami complex, my first feeling was like "I'm I at the Airport or what?" We did not do premium level, but with the layout, the comfort, the views (without wraps), the newness, and the cleanliness of the passenger spaces, the experience was still amazing. Your production quality is on point; optics, composition, transitions, and story-telling are all top
    notch. Thanks for sharing this experience. I'm an aspiring TH-cam creator as well and have taken some very good notes from your presentational approach. Keep up the great work and keep em coming. Yes I'm subscribed to your YT community. Hello Avia. God Bless

About 50% of the Brightline route is at 80 mph, about 20% is at 110 mph (with interruptions), and less than 8% is at 125 mph, but for some reason single-tracked. Amtrak has several routes that stay above 110 mph for more than 40% of their routes - the Wolverine, the Lincoln Service, and the several routes that run on the NEC.

    The slowest train in existence only in america can this be touted as “ High speed”. The train is def more style than substance. Bullet trains “high speed” trains def go more than 125 and longer than a few hundred miles. Absolutely inefficient and still slower than driving the damn turnpike..😅 absolutely hysterical. Travel outside the USA and youll understand how laughable this waste of my tax dollars actually is

      @@starcomeDkcuF thanks for your input. I’ll have to do a review of the train in Indonesia. Well, I wasn’t trying to compare Brightline to bullet trains in Asia and Europe, it is quite a bit of an upgrade here in the US when it comes to regional train travel.

    14:34 Why should they provide free alcohol for premium passengers? The difference in price from Smart Class isn't all that much (and it is not all that expensive). This is NOT the same as a business class lounge in airports. Plus, you get free drinks during the trip. Give me a break.

      @@mikeymutual5489 from what I’ve heard from another viewer, they used to provide free alcohol in the Premium lounge. If they offer it on the train, then why not in the lounge? After all, you only have access for an hour prior to departure anyway. The most someone might have is 1-2 glasses of wine or beer with their food. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Thanks for watching! ✊🏾

      ​@@mikeymutual5489I rode Brightline last December on premium from Orlando to WPB. Several guys drinking heavy in lounge and continuing on train. They were sh**faced by the time we got to WPB. They ended up being kicked off because they were singing and cursing loud. Trip was hell for the rest of us. I literally put my earbuds on highest volume and kept my head down from Melbourne south. Couldn't wait to get off.😞

    This country sucks when it comes to our rail systems. Neglect and political greed and red tape is the problem. There is no excuse for this to materialize as slow as it has. Junk everything in New Jersey, and the northeast corridor is absolutely pathetic. Props to Florida the US should have been first with this model. 👏🏾
