Remarks & Notes |
The northbound ARR McKinley Express works through Anchorage on the mainline after a quick station stop at the passenger depot. The train is enroute to McKinley Siding (Talkeetna) with a load of cruise ship passengers. This service (known as "MEX") operates every Monday and Saturday during the summer tourist season making a round trip from Seward/Whittier to Talkeetna. To the right of the train is a portion of the downtown Anchorage skyline along with the Suburban Propane track which is serviced by the Anchorage yard crew as needed. |
