Railpictures.ca - John Pittman Photo: WP&Y 91 with WPY 97 pulled the midday train north from Skagway AK to Fraser BC – one of the world’s most scenic train rides. Now WP&Y 97 is in the lead after coupling onto the other end of the train for the return to Skagway. The CBSA officers who verified the admissibility of inbound passengers for entry to Canada are having a brief chat with the WP&Y conductor, before walking back to the Yukon Highway border post. All de-training passengers (but one) are boarding their buses to continue their journeys. I’ll be there shortly! Once the inbound passengers have gone, busloads of Skagway-bound passengers will board. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

So glad these trains will continue to run now that WP&Y has been bought by the cruise line.
