Remarks & Notes |
The nightly freight from Fairbanks to Anchorage has just crossed the long Knik River bridge and is swinging around a bluff to head south west toward it's final terminal in this view from the Old Glenn Hwy overpass. The moderately sized train of 4344 ft and 6731 trailing tons is heavy with jet fuel from Flint Hills Resources in North Pole destined for the Anchorage International Airport. The spectacular Talkeetna mountains rise in the distance on the far side of the wide Matanuska Valley. |
