The Amtrak train carries you to a port in Canada, they have a ship to Alaska ports, but yes, you can get to Alaska by Amtrak.

Cool, I've been once by RT air, then rented an RV all around the state. I haven't been to southeast AK, like Juneau or Skagway, etc. I did see a train going to Denali, but thought it was an excursion type deal.

I took the Alaska Railroad from Anchorage to Fairbanks, and it passed through Denali. Don’t think Amtrak is running actual stuff in the state (beyond getting there via Amtrak) but may be wrong.

Unfortunately, they have good WiFi on their trains. I just took the Empire Builder from Portland OR to Chicago IL. Had WiFi and text messages most of the way, except in the Rockies. Alaska is one big wilderness. I think you can escape from football season up there.
