Alaska - White Pass & Yukon Route Scenic Railway
Skagway, AK - White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad offers scenic train excursions from Skagway, Alaska or Fraser B.C. or Carcross, Yukon. It is Alaska's most popular shore excursion. Against all odds, this iron trail was born of the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush and built through some of the North's most ruggedly beautiful terrain. Today, it's a comfortable ride in refurbished train cars following the original route of the hopeful stampeders of 1898.

California - Angels Flight Railway
Los Angeles, CA - This funicular dates back to 1901, when Bunker Hill was one of the most fashionable neighborhoods in Los Angeles and the cars, Olivet and Sinai, ferried prominent citizens up and down the steep slope between Hill and Olive streets. The beloved landmark was dismantled for urban renewal of the area in 1969. In the early 1990s, the Railway was refurbished and relocated a half-block south, reopening adjacent to California Plaza in 1996. As short as it is (298 feet), Angels Flight® is an essential Los Angeles experience.
