Great Lakes Western
Posted by scottlyke on Saturday, May 29, 2010 2:14 PM

I've been searching for a roster of the Great Lakes Western business car concern of the 1990s.  I know they have been gone for a decade or more, but recently saw a car with the window pattern of a 10-6 sleeper in Great Lakes Western paint sitting on a siding in Spooner, Wisconsin.  The car had "WGNS 3225" stenciled on it, so it is now the property of Wisconsin Great Northern RR (the tourist line in Spooner).  This got me wondering about the cars that were once part of Great Lakes Western and what has become of them.

 Thanks in advance!
