[ Amtrak Train Ride ] Only 5 passengers, Not well-known train route (ALB→PIT) 

Many thanks for sharing 😊

Seems to me that Geyhound should move to Albany-Rennsalaer? I also remember when Greyhound Stations had Coffee Shops!

Hmmm. Interesting. I’ve taken this route many times and it’s never been as empty as it was in this video.

This is why this train only runs in the summer I think?

I think a stop at cCraham would make this a year round service?

They got 5 people to pay for what would otherwise be a deadhead run. Not bad.

@13:49 that was a plot twist

This train is a joke. It uses two locomotives and 5 passenger cars to move 5 people over 59 miles? That is massive energy over-consumption. If you take the weight of the locomotives and cars without passengers, it is about 650 tons total. Carrying 5 people, that is 130 tons per passenger. A Toyota Camry with just a driver is 1.6 tons per passenger. A Boeing 737 fully loaded with 220 passengers is .3 tons per passenger.
