The map since it it was not a solid line but dashes I take that to mean it was not owned by MILW but they has rights to serve it off another RRs tracks.

I believe that MILW exercised the trackage rights through a car-handling contract rather than actual train operation on their own. The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul Reply Join our Community! Our community is FREE to join.
