All Aboard
What a mighty machine to take us across the Alaska landscape
Toot Toot!
Here comes the Alaska Railroad Train. I am getting pretty excited at this point. I had just wrapped up a solid 45 minute conversation with a complete stranger moments ago.
Train Cars
I felt as if I was preparing to board the Polar Express
Car Bravo
Happy to be a passenger aboard Car B. Lets get this train a movin!
River Bridged
Moments after crossing one of the many bridges we had to stop the train to assess for earthquake damage
Up and Over
Well I suppose the bridge passed the inspection. One way to find out.
Bendy Train
One of the only vehicles you can ride in where you can see it from different angles
Towering Terrain
The view never became any less impressive than this.
Heads Up
A fair warning. Thanks to the Alaska Railroad lawyers no doubt
Rear View
An amazing view from beind the train at all times. ALL times!
Cloud Piercing
The mountains seems to pierce the low lying clouds. Just stunning.
Tiny Town
To live in a remote town such as this...just thinking about it makes me envious.
Sound of Music?
The hills...err...mountains were truly alive!
Side View
No matter where I was staring the view was simply remarkable
Fine Dining
Don't mind if I do. Who knows the next time I'll get a proper meal.
Inner Beauty
I suppose beauty was not limited to the outdoors
'Tween Cars
For some reason it was very exciting to cross between cars. I think I just felt like I was in a James Bond movie
Train Shave
A train going the other way gave us a close shave. A surprise to anyone not knowing it was on the way
Close Call
Just another view of the close shave between trains
Small Talk
Conductors exchange words between trains
US Stronghold
USA USA!
Passenger
One happy passenger. Don't let the scolding face fool you.
Empty Chairs
Hardly running a full car.
Glass Box
I want to build a house like this car. I knew I was lucky to be in a car such as this.
