Loading ...The Strategic Importance of the Alaska-Canada Railway
From Matthew Ehret. A long piece.

Never got off the ground.

But even Vladivostok at the southern tip (and on the coast) has chilly winters! (for those of us not related to polar bears!)
Interesting Columbia-
the distance is immense.
