Embark on the Alaska Railroad
Anchorage started in the early twentieth century as a tent town to facilitate the construction of the Alaska Railroad. Today, the Alaska Railroad runs from Seward to Fairbanks, with a significant stop in Anchorage. The train stops at Denali National Park & Preserve, Girdwood and remote regions, only accessible by train. The state now controls the Alaska Railroad and provides dozens of passenger routes and event trains to over 500,000 visitors each year.
