Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm in first class today which features panoramic dome ceilings a dining car bar and even an outside viewing deck

it's delicious it's a very lean meat so very different to say a pork sausage but i'll definitely be trying it again

the best bit are these incredible panoramic windows which never get old

i feel it's worth every penny given the unique perspective you get to see of alaska

Head to https://squarespace.com/trektrendy to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code TREKTRENDY Today I’m taking the Alaska Railroad flagship Denali Star train across the state in First Class from Anchorage to Fairbanks. The trip will take around 12 hours, and travel along one of the world’s most beautiful railroads. Join me as I show you around the Goldstar carriage, with glassed domed roof, comfy recliner seats, restaurant and my personal favourite… the outdoor viewing deck. What’s more i'll show you around other areas of the train, in what’s called adventure class. Here we’ll try the cafe and explore the infamous dome car offering a unique perspective of both the train and surroundings. I’ll also discuss pricing and overall what you can expect on this service. 0:00 - Introduction 2:18 - Getting onboard 3:43 - Breakfast 5:16 - Seat Tour 6:50 - Viewing Deck 8:26 - The locomotive 12:13 - Denali 13:00 - Adventure Class 15:25 - Dinner 16:20 - The Cost
