Divide Tunnel Demolition
Fire in the hole! And good riddance to this tunnel north of Seward that has been an ongoing headache for our maintenance crews. The post-blast pile of rocks will be cleared by the end of the month, in time for the summer season’s first passenger trains to Seward. 4/26/18 |
Divide Tunnel was, at mile 11.4. It was 113 ft in length. Click here for the Divide Tunnel Daylight Plan. Click here for A&D Blasting and Alaska Railroad Divide Tunnel Operations.
