Empire Builder Seattle, WA to Red Wing, MN






King Street Station has been recently renovated. It is beautiful! There is no lounge for sleeping car passengers, but for a small fee, you can check your bags so you can explore the city.

                                                    Boarding






We were SO excited to see Gul! I had heard stories about him and his exceptional service.




While we have ridden in a roomette and family bedroom, this was our first time in a bedroom. Lots of room for us, room for a bag or two, and a private bathroom and sink. Very comfortable!



                                                   Plenty of comfy sleeping space





                                                   Gul was a WONDERFUL SCA! We were so spoiled!

The bedroom has a private bathroom, a toilet with shower room, a bit small but perfectly usable. The water gets nice and hot.

 The bedroom is large enough for a respectable blanket fort. A perfect spot to watch a movie.
