Hello, I missed getting on this one when we were there on a cruise ship two years ago, but they were running then. I just looked at the slide show posted previously on page two of this discussion. What a fantastic ride! We stopped in Skagway and I looked at the station on the Alaska end. I'm not sure of the gauge, but more than 2 foot. Skagway does have a road to it so you don't have to go by boat unlike most Alaskan Panhandle towns. I'm really sorry I missed this as now I have visited all 50 states and all Canadian Provinces except Newfoundland, Labrador, and The Northwest Territories. By missing the train, I missed getting into Yukon and could have crossed this one off my bucket list. I started a new post about this railroad as the automatic system in the Discussion Forum said I should. Anyway, don't do like I did and miss the train! That trip up the Inside Passage to Alaska by cruise ship is fantastic. Glenn Byron
