Milwaukee Road’s Charter Line, Part Two of Three

The Milwaukee Road in Wisconsin was originally called the Milwaukee and Waukesha, and then the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad. Late in 1976, I followed a train eastward on the line from Milton or so nearly to Waukesha. I believe the railroad was built through the area in these photographs in 1852 or 1853. This is the second of three posts.

This post begins with our little train just east of Palmyra, at Carlin Trail. I’m happy to have gotten a decent shot of a Milwaukee Road rib-sided caboose here. The third image shows the train at Grove Street, in Eagle, Wisconsin, while the last picture has it at the depot in North Prairie.

Four images by Richard Koenig; taken November 26th 1976.
