various stages of dilapidation. The trestle spiral and loop at Mile 54 was completed the day I returned over the line, but operations on the temporary switchback will continue for several weeks.
 Operations on the railroad in the Southern division include passen- ger train with parlor observation car and buffet, three times weekly, between Seward and Anchorage, Mile IA, and twice week between Anchorage and Talkeetna, Mile 227. Passengers are also carried on freight trains. An irregular service is provided between Matanuska Junction, Mile 15l, and Chickaloon, a distance of 3S miles.
 Tn the Northern division. passen- ger trains run twice weekly be- tween Nenana and Fairbanks. and a gascar provides service or alter nate days. A daily ferry connects Nenana with North Nenana, and an irregular rail service connects Ne mana with Healy, Mile 35S.
 Construction throughout IS first class and up to the best modern practice The Nenana. Panama and Susitna river bridges are all major structures costing between one and two million dollars. Rates on the railroad are about 6la cents a mile for passengers, with F cents per mile for chair car accommodations
 Practically all the road work in the Fairbanks district is directly tributary to the railroad The prin- cipal work in this connection is the new kantishna project, with which we hope eventually to provide d route from the new railroad in the vicinity of Lignite or Dry creek, 70 miles across country into the Kan tshna development on Eureka creek. and other creeks tributary to the upper kantishna, and from there down to the old post of Roosevelt, the head of navigation on the Kan tishna river.
 Tn the Southern division. We have projects directly contributary to the railroad on the kenai peninsula. To- cal roads connecting Anchorage with the farms in that district. similar roads tributary to the Matanuska, connecting MatanuSka, Wasilla and Palmer with the farming lands on the eastern side of the Matanuska river, but more especially with the important Willow Creek mining dis trict, and our new Talkeetna- Cache Creek project, on which we spent s75.000 thss year. We hope eventu- ally to continue this project until it reaches the development in the Kuz- kokwim territory. :-+.
 Two minor projects on which only reconnaissance work will be done in the immediate future are the roads from Talkeetna to the promis- ing district on Iron creek and the road from Broad pass to Valdez creek"
