Whitefish, MT is a service stop on the Empire Builder, so each train stops for about 20 minutes. The station has quite a large, historic, three story station house, that is
slightly set back from the platform by a few small patches of grass. The station house is in the Tudor style, built in the 1920s. The station's waiting room is fairly small, still with wooden benches and a staffed ticket window. There is also a window for a Hertz Car Rental with a sign saying its one of the original Hertz Franchises. On either side of the station is a historic Great Northern Railway Bus, and a Great Northern Railway diesel locomotive. Both now parked and on display.
