In case some of you decide to take the exclusive Radisson train cars from Whittier to Anchorage, the following is from the Radisson excursion site for Whittier. It seems similar to the special domed train cars we took from the Anchorage airport to Seward, though the trip is shorter. It was really terrific. Radisson transferred our luggage to and from the train. You could always begin your trip to Denali from the Anchorage airport--wouldn't be so long on a bus.
