All Aboard Steam Train

All Aboard! Join the magic of the steam train ride aboard the “Scenic Railway of the World”. There is no railway quite like the White Pass and Yukon Route, built against all odds through some of North’s most ruggedly beautiful terrain to include mountains, glaciers, gorges, waterfalls, tunnels and trestles. Over one hundred years later, this narrow gauge railway is still in operation, a remnant of the last great gold rush and adventurous time in Alaska history.

On this 52 mile roundtrip, fully narrated train ride, follow the footprints of the Klondike Gold Rush as you travel up one of the steepest grades in North America, past the White Pass Summit to Fraser Meadows. Pulled by an authentic steam engine, enjoy the commentary and views from the comfort of your vintage railcar. A personal attendent will be available to tell stories and answer questions on the gold rush and how this narrow gauge railroad was declared an International Civil Engineering Landmark. At the Summit, raise your glass for a champagne or sparkling cider toast and receive an individually numbered brass ornament, certifying entry into the “White Pass Summit Club”. This is the world famous White Pass Scenic Railway with a touch of class.
