We arrived at the west entrance three hours late due to freight trains having priority on the tracks.

That is part of the problem - freight has priority I had looked at going from Sac to Chicago on the Zephyr. It took me less time and money to drive. Always delayed by UPRR freight by hours/days at each end

I just rode the train from Denali to Fairbanks, a great trip.
