Railroading Under The Midnight Sun

Railroading Under The Midnight Sun

It's just after 10 PM as northbound freight train 120N with 67 cars and well over a mile of freight wends its way north along Turnagain Arm about 16 miles from the end of it's journey in downtown Anchorage. All this freight has arrived off the Alaska Railbelt Marine barge in Whittier which carries both railcars and containerized freight for its owner Lynden as well as Northland Services and the Alaska Railroad.
