Re: Found some more 1979 White Pass shots

Thanks for posting the pics John - very cool. The Ffestiniog has converted one of their old stone houses along the line to a “holiday let” as they call it, and they’re considering doing a second one. It’s good steady extra income. With all the backpackers, fishermen, hunters, trekkers et al up in the Yukon, I bet that would be an option for Pennington station. Would take a lot of work, and I don’t know the frequency of the trains going past there any more. You’d sure be on your own if you rented it for a week, and I don’t know if fixing it up would be financially worth it, but in our younger days I can see my wife and I staying there for a few days.

Cheers,
Ralph
