点评:We took the train's 12:30 pm Gold Star Service (their glass dome car) from Denali to Anchorage which included lunch and dinner. The train left on time and the scenery was amazing.
Our experience quickly went downhill from there. The train slowed to 8 mph for a prolonged stretch with no explanation provided. The food was mediocre at best. We pulled over on sidings several times and sat waiting for other trains to pass or crew changes. We finally arrived in Anchorage almost three hours late. Then we sat for a prolonged period waiting to unload with no explanation offered. When we were finally allowed to exit the train baggage claim was slow and chaotic. We didn't make it to our Anchorage hotel until after midnight.
Alaska is an amazing place but Alaska Railroad was definitely the lowlight of our two week trip.
翻译:我们乘坐下午 12:30 的 Gold Star Service(玻璃穹顶车厢)从德纳利到安克雷奇,包括午餐和晚餐。火车准时出发,风景令人惊叹。
从那时起,我们的体验迅速走下坡路。火车长时间减速至 8 英里/小时,没有任何解释。食物充其量也只是一般水平。我们多次在侧线停车,等待其他火车通过或乘务员换班。我们终于晚了近三个小时才抵达安克雷奇。然后我们长时间坐着等待卸货,没有任何解释。当我们终于被允许下车时,火车行李领取处缓慢而混乱。直到午夜过后我们才到达安克雷奇酒店。
阿拉斯加是一个神奇的地方,但阿拉斯加铁路绝对是我们两周旅行中的败笔。
