Nice little Holiday Commercial for America's Railroad, thanks for sharing! ( but still not as good as the Lou Rawls ones from the 70s even though the Clothing and the Amtrak colors sucked then!)

Corniest thing I've seen all day.

Loved it.

1,000 HP sleigh huh?? Better find some more of that stuff!

 

[TinCan782]

Isn't it more like a 3-4 thousand horse sleigh?

 

[DesertRat]

LOL.

Isn't it more like a 3-4 thousand horse sleigh?

In the NEC it's now a 8600 HP sleigh.

I vote for Lou as well

but a nice attempt at marketing,,,,,

I always thought they could make some powerful web vignettes about train travel,,

just post em on you tube and watch the hits roll in,,,,,

but I am glad they left out the pickup run over by a reindeer

on the way to grandma's house last night

So bad, it's good. :giggle:

Haha this is a cute video!

I find myself wishing that they'd recorded the sound of grade crossing bells and used them instead of the sleigh bell sound in the song, though. Would have been a nice touch.

Well, on the Acela shown it is more like 12,000 HP, no?
This is really neat!

HAHAH.. At least they are trying! .

Two things:

1. Do they really have hot cocoa in the lounge?

2. Don't those cops on the platform with that dog kind of interrupt the holiday cheer?
