Having never ridden a train for more than 24 hours and never slept in a Sleeping Car, this trip was exciting for me. Actually very comfortable and restful, I would recommend to anyone! 28 hours from Chicago to East Glacier National Park allowed me to rest up for the two week, 5 national park vacation ahead of me.
