The Milwaukee Rd. Will always be in my heart and mind as the lumbering trains rolled past the back of my childhood home in rural Wisconsin In the 60's and 70's. I model the milwaukee rd. in N and HO scale to this day reliving fond memories of the Milwaukee Rd.

There's 2 Milwaukee Road locomotives and a caboose on display in Deer Lodge, MT. One of the locos is the good looking electric one, and a gorgeous EMD E8 style loco. I took pics with my Buick next to the EMD! I'm glad that some of the Milwaukee Road Pacific history has been preserved. I know of a Milwaukee Road boxcar in Centralia, WA as well. Great video!

You're speaking of E70, the last of the old Milwaukee Road's EF4 "Little Joe" electrical locomotives. I hope to get out there this year. 1 of the old Chicago, South Bend, & South Shore Railroad's ones is at the Illinois Railroad Museum and a few of the ones that went to South America are on display in Brazil.

Some real classic electric locomotives, in our state of NSW we had 100 electric locomotives (46, 85 & 86 class) but when the state government privatised the freight section the new owners (now Pacific National) didn't want to run the electric loco's and thus the majority went to scrap. The only state in Australia running electric freight locomotives is Queensland, on their narrow gauge coal haulage routes. Europe and Asia have forged ahead with electric locomotives while Australia and the USA went backwards. Great video, much enjoyed, thank you Charles.

[@JonAschenbrenner]

South Africa and Great Britain forged ahead as well.

How exciting this must have been to see Operating…What a Tragic and Heartbreaking Loss….

My uncle worked for the Milwaukee Road at their Chicago headquarters. Very sad when the MR closed down forever.

The Milwaukee Road is the road to ride, is a mighty good road to ride.

I remember hauling grain in Montana years ago and could see where the Milwaukee Road lines once went. A lot of the remnants were still in tact like semaphores, ballast and ties it was just like they had packed up and left.

Man, I LOVED those GE Boxmotors and "Little Joes" and still do! They were AWESOME! I'm a traction enthusiast, and I enjoy the history of the Milwaukee Road traction equipment. Excellent video. 👍

Thank you for this excellent presentation of how trains used to look and sound; the elements which made me fall in love with it all in the mid 1950s as a youngster on Long Island and later in New York City and what caused me to become a lifelong Model railroader back then and continuing in Los Angeles, 1978 on...

The Milwaukee Road's orange, maroon, and black is so beautiful!!!! Rivalled only by the Southern Pacific Railroad's Daylight colors.

[@DaveMan-c2t]

Thanks to my co-worker (Alex) who suggested Mrs Ann Marie strunk.

[@DaveMan-c2t]

She's a licensed broker, very big in the states 🇺🇸.I did my research.

[@DaveMan-c2t]

After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God.shalom.
