The Red Cars of Glacier National Park

Going-To-The-Sun Road crosses Glacier National Park and is well worth taking. It cuts across the park giving the visitor a delightful view of various aspects of this beautiful wilderness. A high pass and visitor's center marks the middle of the trip. But, more fun - especially for the driver - is taking one of the historic Red Cars along the road. A driver will miss a good deal as attention is demanded at every turn. The Red Cars are driven by people who serve a tour guides and share much knowledge. Try to sit toward the middle and next to a door for the best trip. Sitting in the back row means dealing with a lack of legroom due to the tire well.
