Strong, wife of Alaska's governor, says the $35 million Alaska railroad bill marks a giant engineering feat and will bring population, energy, and life to a territory long treated as a stepchild. She recalls early gold rush years, the return of old miners, and the vision of a rail line linking tidewater with the Yukon and Kuskokwim rivers, while praising Alaska natives and pioneer women who sustain development and morale in Juneau and beyond.
