| The model railway system @ the CRD as of July 2010: Mainline is shown in blue. This is a simplified version. Track details of the Cicely area can be found here. Layout plans for the Cantwell RR yard can be found here. The complete Cantwell/North Sleetmute/Sulphur Springs area is here. Map details for the proposed Klondike Mines Railway extension can be found here. |
| As of mid-June, 2010, the Phase II ALCANEX line had been extended to the projected end of that part of the three-phase project. The G-gauge, 1:24 scale model railroad system had reached the ground, marking the beginning of the Phase III segment, the Klondike Mines Railway at a historic point known as the Sulphur Springs Wye. In 2011, work will resume on the model railroad within the new 1:20.3 scale narrow-gauge area. --R Simpson, builder |
