Train trips in the Rockies can range from two-day, one-night weekend excursions, to 16-day tours of the Rockies. The longer the trip, the more landmarks travelers will see.
Some top stops on train trips through the Rockies include Vancouver, the frontier town of Calgary, the rushing water of Hell's Gate and the wide open fields of the Frasier River Valley.
