I'm a bit of a train nerd, so when I'm at a train depot I'm happy.
Train travel to me is like a step back in time (in a good way). We're lucky in the Tri-Cities to have one of the newest train stations in the Pacific North West (this station was constructed in 1998). I like it here, because whenever I'm here, it means I'm going somewhere cool, whether it's the early train to Portland, or the evening train to Glacier National Park. The Empire Builder is the east/west train which serves us.
This depot also serves Greyhound as well as the Mexican bus service, Estrella Blanca.
The waiting room is generally clean, and there is a vending machine available (but if you've got time, stop by a taco truck since you're surrounded!).
I must admit I was a little wary of leaving my vehicle here over the weekend, but my MINI was waiting for me safe & sound after my weekend trip to Portland.
Ok, when's the next trip!? read more
