    The guide, Mary, was excellent. Warm, personable with great attention to details, history and wildlife. Smooth ride at a good pace, so there was no rushing. Several stops to get out, or to take photos of the great scenery.

    Due to bad weather , our flight to the Denali Glacier was sadly cancelled. Having experienced the delightful town of Talkeetna the day before ,we were in a quandary as to how to spend an overcast day . Thanks to a suggestion from our wonderful morning waitress ( did not catch her name ) at Latitudes Restaurant ( we ate there 5 times … it is fantastic) we took the Hurricane Turn Railroad ride through beautiful scenery and opportunities to spot wildlife . A highlight was seeing a young moose having dinner in a small lake. The conductor stopped the train allowing guests to take numerous photos. He walked through each car making sure people saw the moose . Mary, a wonderful guide on the train also made sure people saw specific sights. We sat on the left ( River Side, according to Mary) but the Non- River side was equally impressive … and everyone got up and moved around anyway, so selecting a “ good” side was a non- issue. We would like to give a huge shout out of praise for the entire staff we encountered on this unexpected excursion. A young Railroad attendant on the train heading up to Fairbanks prior to our Hurricane Trip , was helpful in contacting the right authorities so we could buy tickets. Our online attempts didn’t work ( our problem … not Alaskan Railroad’s) The young lady’s name is Rachel and she is the epitome of what a great staff member of a large organization should be: Friendly, knowledgeable, personable and ultimately helpful. We eventually met James D the ticketing agent who also was helped to load baggage for the Fairbanks trip. Talk about hardworking people!! Thank you ! We highly recommend the Hurricane Turn Trip!!!!
