My memories of the Milwaukee Railroad go back to the the 50’s in Jackson Minnesota With the steam engines and wonderful Memories my Grandpa worked for the Railroad gif over 50 years and was in charge of the Jackson facility My Dad also worked For the MR until it was closed down What great memories I have. I wish They had made a museum out the facility In Jackson It would have been awesome

It costed them more money in Derailment's then it would've cost them to just maintain the Damn mainline .Former N.P. / B.N. management sure did a number on the Milwaukee Road .

[@andrewfosbinder2826]

Very nice…images reminiscent of 70s railroading anywhere in the U.S. One critique: a quick brush and puff of air across the slides before you scan ‘em.

@2:43 engine #193 looks like it has some sort of bull horn by the regular horn. What was that?

[@bjkrotzman8767]

That would be the electronic bell.
