Chitina Local Branch of the Copper River & Northwestern Railway: <br />This was a <i>real </i> historic railroad which operated primarily as a standard-gauge ore carrier for the Kennecott Mines Company from March 29, 1911 until November 11, 1938, when the last consist arrived at the wharf at Cordova, Alaska--mile 0. This model features three historic towns: the downtown segments of Chitina (mile 131--the start of the branch line), McCarthy (mile 189) and Kennecott--the millsite at the end of the line, mile 196. Kennecott exists as a ghost town and tourist attraction in the foothills of the Wrangell Range, Wrangell St. Elias National Park. <br />[url]http://crnwrailway.com/ [/url]
