Alaska Dispatch News: Skagway and its Alaska-Canada railroad at critical junction
The WP&Y is quite profitable, according to the article:
Quote
The railroad these days is owned by Toronto-based TWC Corp., which also has golfing clubs and resorts in Canada and Florida, and revenues last year of $200 million, according to company financial documents filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators.
Skagway provides the bulk of the company's profits, with the railroad and its associated docks bringing in $43 million in revenue last year, with $23 million of that being profits. TWC had a companywide profit of $3.5 million last year.
