Here You Are Eastbound

Here is the 1950 eastbound counterpart to yesterday’s “Here You Are” brochure for Empire Builder passengers. Eastbound passengers had to get up early to see Glacier Park, as the train arrived at West Glacier (Belton) at about 7:30 am.

The illustrator of these brochures included maps that showed daytime as white graying into nighttime black. But, curiously, the illustrator forgot to show the second night in this brochure.

The eastbound Empire Builder has just left East Glacier and it headed across the Montana prairie. The Glacier Park Hotel, built by the Great Northern Railway in 1913, is barely visible in this photo above the last few cars on the train.
