Whittier, AK

ARR 120S, having come down from Anchorage earlier in the afternoon, switches out the Lynden rail barge in Whittier. 3012's large snow plow is a reminder of the harsh winters the railroad faces, hard to imagine during the nice days around the summer solstice we spent here. The concrete monolith seen behind the train is the Buckner Building, once a housing unit from Whittier's days as a military outpost, now standing abandoned and derelict.
