Just south and east of Fairbanks, Alaska, is the township of North Pole. It's quite isolated, although it is on the Richardson Highway - InterState Highway A2.

There is a proposal to provide year-round passenger and freight rail service on the Alaska RailRoad, which runs through North Pole to Fairbanks. At the moment, passenger service only runs west and south from Fairbanks to Anchorage, although there is a freight service to Eilson Air Force Base, beyond North Pole. The proposal would necessitate some environmental mitigation in this sensitive area.

Close to the line is the privately owned general aviation airport of Bradley Sky Ranch: it would be possible to provide some kind of station for people using it, but the patronage is likely to be extremely small! Indeed, the Anchorage - Fairbanks service runs close to a number of the community airports in Alaska.

I was amused to see that one of the roads near Bradley Airport is called Taxi Way!

Also of note is the story of the other - correction, another - North Pole, the one in West London used by Eurostar as a maintenance depot until their operations moved from Waterloo to St. Pancras. When the depot was built, it was of course built for reliability, including an enclosed carriage washing plant. So in its first winter, the joke was that every carriage washing plant in Britain was frozen up - except the one at North Pole!
