While on an Alaska trek we were able to catch the White Pass Yukon Railway. This narrow gauge railway was built in 1898, 14 years before the ill-fated Titanic sank in the Atlantic. There are a number of excursions available. Ours passed the original Klondike Trail.
Riding this railroad into British Columbia, Canada is a trek worth taking. The trip will climb 3,000 feet in 20 miles. We ended with a view of the sawtooth range.
I've included a video which provides some of the experience of riding the rails. There was a surprise at 13:00.
