ARR 1 "DENALI" photos Click here to return to the index.
On November 11, 2006, Alaska Railroad private car #1 "Denali" began its westward trip home after being refurbished by Colorado Railcar. ARR1 ran on the rear of Amtrak's westbound California Zephyr. I was able to catch the train in several places so enjoy the photos!
