Printable version / Version imprimable

EIRNS—While put in the context of a poll among its readers, whose majority think that a U.S.-China rail link via the Bering Strait won’t happen, the fact that RailFreight, an influential site, brings it up the concept of 13,000 km line extending from the lower 48 states, through Canada, Alaska, across the Bering Strait into Siberia, and thence to China.

The coverage is significant, in the context of the World Land-Bridge, and given the timing.
