   I know it's possible to take a train from the UK through the Chunnel   
   to Europe, and presumably also to Asia.  But unfortunately, there's no   
   railroad tunnel or bridge between Siberia and Alaska, so I doubt you   
   can get the whole way to Montreal by rail.   
      
   Maybe plans for such a connection were discussed at the recent Alaska   
   summit meeting.  That way something productive would have come from it.
