Haines Rail Access Report

The Haines Borough Alaska Official Website

According to the executive summary, this report "provides a business case assessment for rail access to tidewater at Haines, Alaska for Yukon mineral exports, and to bridge Alaska Railroad traffic from the south. Haines, Alaska is in a regionally unique position of having a well protected, deep water port with substantial back-up lands available to support high volume rail operations that may be required to fully develop Yukon resources. In turn Yukon mineral resources are the principal traffic source available for a Haines railway project."
