HEY!!! I am glad you guys enjoyed yourself in Alaska. My state. I hope that looking for those trains weren't a problem. Cannot wait for the next video. I have already been to the 557 restoration company in Wasilla.
@@Loki_Konwrath The mainline isn't too far from you, but runs through an Air Force Reserve between Anchorage and Birchwood. If you go to Beach Lake Rd in Birchwood, which isn't too far from Eagle River, you can get to the mainline and watch trains!
@@Loki_Konwrath During the current winter season, one passenger train in the morning on saturdays, one in the evening on sundays. NB Freight runs around 8-9pm every day of the week except saturday. In the Summer, from mid-may to mid-September, usually 3-4 trains pass from 7am to 10am, plus the freight train from above that runs every day in the evening except saturday.
The general mixed freight seen on the head end of the 130S about 7 mins in gets transferred via barge to Seattle and the rest of the National rail network. All the flat cars seen on the Whittier freight (train 120N) and the back half of the 130S stays on the ARR
Most Excellent!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I live in Alaska! I feel like trains are pretty rare to see up here but that could just be cause im never near tracks. but anyways nice catches!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Most of the tracks and business of the RR is around Anchorage

Does any of this rolling stock ever reach another mainline? Or any other line in North America? Or does it all just stay local to this line

There's no union Pacific railroad in Alaska
But some of the cars are of UPRR heritage
