THERE’S A REASON IT’S KNOWN AS THE GREAT NORTHWEST. There are great open spaces filled with scenery that ranges from the big waters of Puget Sound to the big skies of Montana. We’ll travel through the region’s most scenic lands along the legendary northern transcontinental rail route blazed by the Northern Pacific railroad. Your rail journey is the ideal way to see the Pacfic Northwest and the magnificent Rockies, including stops at four National Parks: Glacier, Mt. Rainier, Yellowstone, and Grand Teton.
