Alaska Railroad Aurora Winter Anchorage à Fairbanks One Way

Aperçu
Experience the splendor of winter in Alaska from the comfort of a warm railcar, complete with comfortable seats, large picture windows and onboard dining. The Aurora Winter Train travels between Anchorage and Fairbanks, making the northbound 12-hour journey on Saturdays, as well as select mid-week departures (Tuesdays and/or Thursdays) December through March. Flagstop service is provided along the 50-mile stretch of roadless backcountry south of Hurricane Gulch.

While the Aurora Winter Train travels the same stretch of tracks as the summer Denali Star Train, the views are strikingly distinct; the vibrant colors of Alaska’s summer landscape give way to the quiet serenity of pristine snow.  On a clear day, a spectacular view of Denali rises into view above the Susitna River. And anywhere along the tracks, a watchful eye may be rewarded with the sight of a moose in the wild.

I had been on the train before in summer some years ago, this year I rode it in March and was lucky regarding the weather most of the time. Snow was already melting fast in Anchorage and Fairbanks, but the best part between Talkeetna and Denali offered great views on wonderful winter landscape. The train slows down (or even stops) for particularly interesting views and you get interesting information over loudspeaker during the whole trip, telling you stories about the area, geography, geology, history, and about the people who lived or now live along the rails. The Flag stop train, which in summer runs separately under the name of "Hurricane Turn" (on a section north of Talkeetna), is integrated into the journey from Anchorage to Fairbanks in winter, this means there are also occasional stops between the stations. The cars are comfortable, although a bit too warm, but between the cars you can always cool down a bit. There is a dining car for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as a bistro called "Wilderness Cafe" with various small hot or cold dishes, snacks and drinks.

Traveling by train provides opportunity to really enjoy the landscape and take photos, but it IS a long trip. Of course on a train you can walk around, change seating, etc. Most seats did not have trays so it was difficult to play a game or watch a video to pass some of the time, or even to eat a meal at your own seat. There was a nice snack bar with tabled seating however. We went the last week of March and saw some beautiful scenery, and were glad to have taken this train trip, but not sure we would do it again because of the length of time, but if so, we would definitely pick the opposite, summer season.

Jan 12, 2019 Anchorage to Fairbanks. An awesome trip! 12 hours and even though 4 hours in darkness it was one of the best experiences ever! The food and drinks were good. The staff working the train were great! Amazing scenery, saw some moose along with the winter wonderland.
