The International was a named passenger train originally operated by the Great Northern Railway between Seattle, Washington, and Vancouver, British Columbia. This route began in 1950 as the International Limited, and was one of many trains discontinued on the startup of Amtrak on May, 1971. Amtrak would later operate the Pacific International over the same route 1972–1981. Service returned again in 1995 using a Talgo Pendular train set purchased by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) as Amtrak's Mount Baker International service and is still in operation as part of its Amtrak Cascades service.
