Below right, another work train tied up at Portage.

   

Back on the mainline for the return to Anchorage

   

   

   

   

   

Above right and lower left, the train traverses along Turnagain Arm in land that was filled into the ocean to help mitigate avalanche closures.

    

   

The highlight of the return trip was eagles flying above the train along Turnagain Arm.
