One video is a short 5 minute overview.
Two videos are more in-depth, part one and part two for the fans of mineral production, Alaska exports to Asia

There's no other port in Alaska building a 100-rail car loop. Port MacKenzie will rise to the top of the list of other Alaska ports as an ideal space for sizeable manufacturing projects. Port MacKenzie Rail project will boost State revenues, jobs, & mineral production.
