The Unlikely Revival of the Sleeper Train

Sleeper trains are having a renaissance moment in Europe and the US but for different reasons. In Europe, they’re greener, comfier, and cheaper than ever. In the US, they’re a fresh alternative to flying and driving. But after decades of being the least popular way to travel long distances, can the eco-friendly sleeper train rise up and be what it was before interstate highways and network airlines took over? In this video, Noelle Medina analyzes our country's train routes, talks with a transportation expert to understand why American sleeper trains don't operate as well as Europe's, and travels 16 hours overnight on an Amtrak train from LA to Albuquerque to experience one of the only 14 long-distance overnight routes in the U.S. Sources: (CC-BY-NC) Juri Maier / Back-on-Track.eu: https://www.back-on-track.eu/night-tr...
