"Hi everyone, I'm Russ Handler. Did you know traveling from Seattle to Los Angeles via train could take up to thirty-five hours? So, here's the best way to book your travel on a train through Amtrak from Seattle to Los Angeles. First of all, if you don't like computers call 1-800-USARAIL. Then, that'll connect you to the folks at Amtrak. But if you're like me and you're going to spend thirty-five hours in a train you want to know what's up, so go to the website. Amtrak's website is fully functional and very easy to use, and what's nice is it even gives you a map of the route so that you can see the various cities that you're going to be moving through, and that's always nice as well. Go ahead and put in your suggested itinerary. In this case, we're going to be going on the the coast route, and the good thing about this one is that this particular route here as per this site has a dining car, an arcade car, scenic viewing cars, and sleeper cars. Go ahead pick your itinerary, hit the button, purchase your tickets. Take your reservation number down to the Amtrak departure time, or departure area, and then you can print out your tickets and hop on board for a great trip. I'm Russ Handler, and that's how it's done."
