Haha! I suppose this was inevitable.

That would be, No, I'm thinking....Either way, it's on of the better remakes out there. Redneck style was truly horrible...This was pretty well done.That's actually pretty well done.
I wonder if it was officially sanctioned by Chicago or Amtrak?
Back when I was in high school I had to watch stupid upbeat parodies as part of my "training" for early unskilled jobs and I hated it.That is too funny! Even though he is a 'conductor', maybe this should be used as a training video for the CHI crews to show them the enthusiasm, energy and physical coordination that every Amtrak employee involved in customer service should aspire to.
Why am I not surprised by that? :huh:Back when I was in high school I had to watch stupid upbeat parodies as part of my "training" for early unskilled jobs and I hated it.That is too funny!

Count me in that few. There are several life experiences that I have missed and am happy to keep it that way. Count experiencing this either video or real amoung them.I am one of the few people on the planet that hasn't seen the original...I think I'll pass on this one as well.
They're hilarious now, watching them on youtube from wherever I happen to be bored, but I wouldn't wish them upon my worst enemy in any serious sense. BTW, if you really want beams of rose colored sunshine coming from my posts then feel free to start a thread about training videos for Deutsche Bahn or JRX. Gangnam Style is fun and all, but even Psy himself has retired the song as of the first of the year.Why am I not surprised by that? :huh:Back when I was in high school I had to watch stupid upbeat parodies as part of my "training" for early unskilled jobs and I hated it.That is too funny!

I agree.That was very well done! Impressive filming and the quality was good.
I just wish, as others have mentioned, that they had redone the words in a full parody like the Mitt Romney one and others. That would have made it funnier. But kudos to however made this!
"Luke... I am your father" is the very famous line from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.Definitely one of the better parodies of that I've seen. And according to this news source it actually was done by Amtrak and/or Union Station....
I also want to know the context of "Luke....I am your feather" from that newspaper.

I would say, based on the previous post, that it is officially endorsed by Amtrak.And now it looks like Amtrak is 'unofficially' endorsing this. Amtrak's corporate Twitter account just tweeted:
