Anyone familiar with the port of Milwaukee (WI)? If so I was wondering if anyone could help me better understand the rail presence in the port. Here goes: <br /> <br />How many trains arrive at the port of Milwaukee on a daily - weekly basis? What railroads service the port? What makes up the largest percentage of freight that comes and goes? Are there any transload facilities there? How big of a presence does intermodal have at the port? The containers that do arrive in Milwaukee, are they mostly for customers in the Milwaukee area, or is the port more or less a place to stage, store, and sort containers before their trip to Chicago? <br /> <br />And finally with Chicago, Rochelle, and Milwaukee all in close driving distances, if I was a customer or shipper, how would I decide on which port to service? <br /> <br />Thanks. <br /> <br />
