THE spirit of service which exists in the
operation of The Alaska Railroad, has
made our patrons our friends, and the safe
guarding and transportation of their ship
ments to stations on o.ur line, to their entire
satisfaction is our ambition.
During the month of May the season of
river navigation will augment our rail serv
ice, and freight and passenger travel will
receive the benefit of our experience.
Trains will connect with all sailings on
the Tanana and Yukon Rivers.
Timetables, descriptive literature, etc.,
will be gladly furnished on request.
