2. AJ Mine Railroad
The Alaska-Juneau Mine operated a complex rail
network, much of which was underground in the
mine and in various rail tunnels throughout the
mountains behind Juneau.
Track gauge was 30” and used electric locomotives,
most powered by overhead trolley wire.

13. Ak. Pulp & Paper Co. Tram
This operation was located at Speel River in Port
Snettisham in the 1920’s. It had a tramway around
their plant, probably to move supplies and product
between buildings.
The plant operated from about 1920 to 1924, with
several attempted comebacks over the years but
finally liquidated around 1950

A tramway or railroad was begun in the late 1920’s
on the Juneau side of Mansfield Peninsula, to serve
the Bear Creek asbestos deposit on the northeast
side of Mount Robert Barron, across Admiralty Is.
from Funter Bay.
A rail tram was begun from the beach towards the
prospect sometime to 1944, but not completed.

On the Lynn Canal side of the mountian, the Berners

Seward City) to the Kensington Mine.
Completed in 1893, this is a contender for one of
the earliest railroads in Alaska.

This mine, located 1-1/4 miles east of Silver Bay,
over the mountain from the Lucky Chance Mine, was
opened around 1872.
The mine was originally known as the “Stewart
Tunnel,” and was reportedly the first quartz mine in
Alaska. It used a horse drawn tram. The mine
closed around 1880.

This was a marble quarry, just north of Shakan, AK.
It had a 3,200’ standard-gauge inclined tram,
powered by a cable and winch.
The tramway, as seen in photos, appears to be a
three-rail funicular. Years later, the tram was
replaced by a truck road.

Related to the construction railway at Annex Creek,
a freight tram led up nearby Carlson Creek along
the route of the power line to Juneau.
The tramway ran approximately 5 miles, from Sunny
Cove to Camp 4, on the Power Line Project.
Both power lines and tramway were built by the
Alaska Gastineau Mining Co.

59. Chichagof Mine Tramways
The large Hirst-Chichagof mine and company town
of Chichagof had some short mine-gauge tramways
running between workings and ore dumps.
A longer surface tram ran from the near-shore adits
and the lower aerial tram stations, through a snow
shed, to the sawmill and to the powder magazine.
Tracks also led along the wharves and between
camp buildings.

The Cobol Mine in Slocum Arm operated from about
1922 to 1936. A small tramway with wooden rails
ran about 1,150’ from the beach to the bottom of
an aerial tram.
At the top of the aerial tram, another surface tram
was graded with ties laid, but never finished.

82. Dry Bay Railroad
A short railroad was begun in 1909-10 at Dry Bay
by the St. Elias Packing Co. This company owned a
cannery at the mouth of the Alsek River, and built
the rail line to link the cannery to a nearby pier.
The cannery and rail line are closely tied to the
Yakutat & Southern Railroad, and were at times
technically part of the Y&SRR despite not being
connected by rail.

A tramway ran from Eagle Harbor to the small town

This is reported as 6-mile long horse tram with
wooden rails. Mining began in Amalga in 1902 so
the tram was probably built in 1903 to bring in
stamp mill equipment.
