The historic rail station, lodge and Red bus all invite the travelers to extend the experience of community begun on the train as they visit the park. 18”x24” oil on canvas, commissioned by Amtrak in 2000, used with permission of the artist.

Some great comments and memories :-)
For those who aren't familiar with the area, the Lodge, golf course and train station are all located just outside Glacier National Park, and not on NPS property.
