I've heard stories of people taking the Empire Builder from Whitefish, MT to Seattle which leaves at about 10:30pm and gets you to King Street at 11:30am. Pretty niche I realize, but it's an observed phenomenon and I would be interested in trying it when I move back to the Flathead someday.
- jpalawaga 3y agothis is one of the few trains in north america i've actually ridden. the journey was fine. I think it would be better during the day so you can see the dramatic scenery of glacier and the rockies. but as a broke college student, time is of the essence, and so the nighttrain to seattle was perfect. And you still get a bit of a scenery in the morning as well. The conductor on our train called out various points of interest.
