Thanks for watching the video! Hope ya enjoyed it! Anyway, I have the sources to all of the routes and locomotives I used in this video in the description, so please check there if you're wondering where something came from!
@@amcaljosh Cars are fast, but you have to deal with traffic, less space for people, and slower speed limits. Planes are good, but, they get more and more expensive as the years go on, you can't hold nearly as many people as a train, and the aviation business is being put in jeopardy because of a jet fuel shortage. Not to mention the large amount of plane crashes in the past decade.
After WWII, cars and planes started taking away passenger business, then in the 60's the government cancelled the mail contracts for all passenger trains in the country which rendered basically every passenger train unprofitable. Because of this, railroads began discontinuing tons of services and the few that were left often used old, dirty equipment that was 20 years out of date. This left a poor taste in many American's mouths, and put passenger trains in a bad light. Ever since then, Amtrak and many other passenger services have been struggling to shake that image.
Long Answer: 70 years of railroad overregulation The government using tax dollars (some of which came from railroads) to build airports and highways, directly giving money to their competition. And of course, people wanting to use the new highways and airports Short Answer: the United States government
Honestly the streamlined K4 was the most unique streamliner. It was brown, the funnel had a cartoon effect,and overall it looks cool and had a unique case
0:54Yessss! I’ve been waiting for the 4-4-2 Atlantic to show up in one of these videos, the Twin cities Hiawatha is my favorite train in the history of American rail.
coronation scot as a song is perfectly orchestrated to make you feel as though you're flying through the countryside via plane, but no, instead you are going by train, the safest and fastest way to transport multiple people and goods all at the same time with the same speeds
Noticed that the Pigtails reappear 3 times, with their different evolutions of passenger engines, the first being the K4, then the T1, and finally EMD E series diesels. Was that an Easter egg?
the problem is, a lot of the music is meant to sound like steam locomotives, especially the beginning and 0:42, and we all know Amtrak has no steam locomotives

Pentrak
Nice
Choo Choo
do you have the link to the specific version of Coronation Scot used in the vid?
@@DerpyPossum I'm not sure what the orchestra's name is but I got it from this video: th-cam.com/video/mrndSjtSdRY/w-d-xo.html
Orchestral music + some speedy steam and diesel bois + nice camera angle = absolute perfection
0:42
I've seen this engine so many times at the Illinois Railroad Museum, but these shots here make me see it alot different. Thank you
Love it! The combo between retro trains and orchestral music is perfect.
It's always a good day when AmtrakGuy uploads a Trainz video
As a lifelong New Haven fan, I thank you for including the EP-5
and the I-5
Back when America thrived in passenger rail. What the hell happened? We used to build absolute masterpieces.
Ikr? Cars and planes happened. People then didnt want to take the trains and it all later became what it is now.

Atleast you’re saying GP40s, F40s, etc. are masterpieces lol

Amtrakguy365 out here dropping the most amazing and astonishing trainz cinematics footage you will ever see
This was beautifully shot and beautifully edited together! Quality content right here!
This video perfectly captured the American passenger trains of 1939 and postwar 1945, Jared. Nice job!
This is really awesome and greetings from México 🇲🇽
F E R R O M E X ?
@@QuartiyoPasdevHerjiKreuz si?
As a big fan of the Empire State Express, it's hard to beat that drive-by at 1:58
Ahhh the Great American railroad at work!!
The music sounds like something from a children's educational series.
I like when the trumpets make a whistle noise and you sync it with it lol
Cuz of this video I’m making a video about the coronation scot with the song cuz. This video got me addicted to that song
Mind You, the music in the video is called "Coronation Scot", and we start off with a loco from Pennsylvania that ALREADY LOOKS like a Coronation.
Great streamliners and freighters
Good job
0:54Yessss! I’ve been waiting for the 4-4-2 Atlantic to show up in one of these videos, the Twin cities Hiawatha is my favorite train in the history of American rail.
The Pere Marquette 1225 Would Fit Perfectly in this Video
It's not a passenger engine
@@WesternOhioInterurbanHistoryit is for the polar express event
1:51 thank you for adding new haven i-5 hudson this locomotive is my favourite
Woah
Finally someone who uses the paulz trainzs j3a
You found ways to release serotonin science has never come close to
I just want to point out that at 0:27, this locomotive has what looks like a horn in the corner above the smokebox.
Yes
It does, most GS- classes have Leslie horns.
It does have a horn
That's The Horn Actually...
Awesome Music Video They're the best

It is almost a nostalgic take on American Passenger Railways
Very nice. The NP 2626 has to be my favorite shot.
Well done ending with the 20th Century Limited and Broadway Limited racing each other.
Awesome video! The music sounded classical but had the fast pacing of something like looney tunes, keep up the great work!!
This is the best video you have ever made.

The passnger trains were very popular over the years ago and now there bringing back the steam era again on most steam locomotives
Awesome video!
1:50 to 1:54 is my favorite part! I love the New Haven I-5!
A quality Video As Always
Beautiful, just beautiful.
That was so good it almost makes me want to make the same thing!!
Beautiful!!! This is amazing!
''The golden age of travel''
Back to the good ol' days!
ooooh, how i love this!
The things i’d do for a time machine…
Please do one, but with modern Amtrak trains, maybe even one but for Amtrak on the NEC, my favorite
the problem is, a lot of the music is meant to sound like steam locomotives, especially the beginning and 0:42, and we all know Amtrak has no steam locomotives
liked video
Video idea: Excursion Trainz. A montage of excursion stars like 4449 844 etc. Just an idea for you
Not bad not bad at all
When you realize a railroad in your county has/had a 2-10-4:
YOOO love the music isn't it the called the corination scot?
It is yes.
1:16 mmmm yes, perfection
This has been an Amtrakguy365 production.
@1:54 oh look, it’s ‘The Blue Comet’ train.
I love Hudsons.
Nice one.
Hey cool, I suggested this!
Legend.
Is Freight Trainz next?
Awesome Video
That’s cool
Passenger Trainz means = Passenger Train In Trainz Game
1:15 werid to see the Mars light on while the locomotive is running but that pretty interesting actually
Cgi still like the good old TH-cam days😀
uh, its a video game lol
Train + orchestra = orchestra train😂
This is a great video
Another outstanding video! These are certainly worth waiting for
Outstanding amazing video
good show
@AmtrakGuy365 you should make a video called New York Trainz and it could be to rhapsody blue
Wow! Nice trainz
i really like that burlington zephyr
Most of the trains in this video are mostly the trains from back in the streamliner days and others are non-streamlined
They're all passenger trains and that is what the video is about
Did you reskin the Empire state express? Also how do I know which route is which in this video?
Are some handsome consists in there, and in the real life history which 'there' was patterned upon.
1:50 where can I get that route where that New Haven I-5 is running through?
Nice
20th Century Era: Steam Locomotive and EMD Passenger Version
21st Century Era: Amtrak, Metrolink, MBTA, Tri-States Rail, Coaster Rail, etc.

Any one know what exact variant of Coronation Scot this is?
Edit: found it in the pinned comment's comment section so nevermind
Of course I will like it
For some reason at Trainz Forge, the E and F units are faulty. Is there a way I can fix it?
They are TRS19+
