Alaska Airlines 727-200 at Fairbanks International Airport, Summer 1968

I flew back to Anchorage on this 727--Golden Nugget Jet.  Over the intercom, they played Robert Service poems.  "Here we go down to Anchorage Town/Where the city meets the sea."  Very sing song and, as my English teacher at East L.A. J.C. would have said, "rhyme lead".  The several flights were numbered years from the later 1800's, likely around the Alaskan Gold Rush period.
