Yukon to Dease Lake, B.C.

[cprted]

A BC/Alaska rail connection has been one of those things that crops up every ten years or so. BC Rail has a graded roadbed to Dease Lake, and if commodity prices continue to rise, it could be built on (not holding my breath though). At one point about a dozen years ago, someone proposed a BC/Alaska/Siberia rail link using a tunnel under the Bering Straight. Another neat-o pipe dream.

I heard talk of a rail line being built from somewhere in the Yukon to Dease Lake, B.C. and from there to Fort St. James, B.C.

B.C. Rail built a rail bed to Dease Lake but never got past Fort St. James, B.C. Can someone fill me in if anything is being done about it?
