As noted on the other discussion about the Bering Strait tunnel proposal, the State of Alaska began seeking a direct railroad connection to the Candian (and thereindirectly to the lower 48) railroad network under Alaska Senate Bill 23 SB 31: <br /> <br /> http://www.legis.state.ak.us/basis/get_bill.asp?session=23&bill=sb31 <br /> http://www.gov.state.ak.us/archive.php?id=1032 <br /> <br />Whether or not the Bering Strait ever gets rail service is still a far leap in the geological engineering and financing arenas, but perhaps in a few decades it might happen. Since post-Soviet Russia is still struggling to survive economically, it is doubtful tat they would contribute to the financing of the project. East Asian and American corporations would likely be the biggest supporters as they have the most to gain and have the funds to take on the challenge.
