Ray Djuff dove into the history of Glacier National Park’s historic red buses and found that their continued existence is owed to determined people who wanted to see the iconic fleet drive the Going-to-the-Sun Road for years to come. 

“Something I mentioned throughout the book is that if it weren't for fate and chance, those buses would have been taken off the road numerous times,” Djuff said. 

Djuff’s newest book “Glacier’s Reds — The quest to save the park’s historic buses” takes a look at how the bus tours became a staple in Glacier National Park, as well as the many close calls that nearly took them out of commission.
