Mint River, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, Spring, 2025 Far out in the wilds of western Alaska, there is a tiny work camp. It is not far from the very western tip of that land. It sits on a small shelf of hillside, near the bottom of a nondescript drainage canyon. The camp consists of a few prefabricated living units, just big enough to house a half a hundred workers. From the air, the camp is almost unnoticeable. Yet, it hides below ground a mighty effort. This small work camp is the prime focus of what will prove to be the greatest engineering project of the Twenty-First Century - that of interconnecting the Continents by tunnel and rail. It will be a railroad, yes, but one like no other -- a very-high-speed pipeline for containers, which will set the standard for railroads for the rest of the century. This 'pipeline'will provide a direct link between China, as the world's fastest growing economy, and the U.S., as the world's largest economy. Four stalwart and intrepid young men set out and strive to master the technology needed to create this mighty effort.
