The busiest Amtrak Train stop between Seattle and Minneapolis altho I mostly see lots of freight cars. I thot it was a major hub like Havre was, but apparently not.
Whitefish, Montana, grew from a rough logging camp known as “Stumptown” into a thriving railroad town after the Great Northern Railway (GN), a BNSF predecessor, made it a division point. The railroad shaped its character, from the landmark Tudor Revival depot that still serves passengers to the community parks created on former rail yard land.
Today, BNSF keeps the legacy alive with more than 250 local jobs and about 34 trains a day.
