Alaska Railroad: Anchorage Action
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- In May of 2022 we traveled to the great state of Alaska where we spent a lot of time watching trains on the Alaska Railroad. On this day we spent most of our time around Anchorage watching the action. This included some classic painted Geeps as well as some of the first cruise trains of the season.

3005 and 3006 still carry their original Prime manufacturing PM-733 loudspeaker bells. Great video
It’s always interesting for me to realize that every piece of rolling equipment on the ARR had to get there by boat! There’s no rail link to the outside world, and as I understand it, everything comes into Alaska at either Whittier or Seward. Great stuff! Thanks for posting!
WOW!! Great video of ARR train work in Anchorage. Thanks you for posting this and I hope you had a great time in Alaska!
Hi great video nice catch. Question Do any of these freight trains have cabooses at the end? Just curious
The Alaska railroad does not regularly use cabooses on their trains
Wow that's awesome fantastic yes Alaska 😀 😊
Great video. We rode The Alaska Railroad on our trip in 2014. Great experience.
Keep em coming!
wow
As an alaskan, I have seen the anchorage rail yard is somewhat small. The one in Fairbanks where I've been too is a little bit bigger. There's not much activity in the anchorage rail yard other than shunting cars around to the local industries. The rail barges in Seward are full of activity.
Are Alaska Railroad's SD70MACs equipped with HEP units that supplies electricity to passenger cars?
Yes, the ones used in passenger service are, as well as some geeps I believe
@@MichiganCentralLines thanks for responding 👍
Is eagle river Alaska northbound??
Yes, there isn't any eagle river route at southbound
