ELS 402 and ELS 503
Title:  ELS 402 and ELS 503
Description:  An E&LS train rests on the south leg of the wye at the former MILW yard at Crivitz (originally Ellis Junction), WI, on 1 Jan. '21. This wye is the northwestern terminus of the former M&N Menominee Branch. The locomotive was idling and the headlights were on (dimmed), so I thought it was ready to go somewhere. It was not to be. In the background to the right, ELS 503 rests in the yard. The former MILW depot 414 Hall Ave., stands at the far right. I am nearly certain that this is the depot built by the M&N when the line was laid in 1883 (I haven't found any indication that the original depot was replaced).

ELS 402 and ELS 503
Title:  ELS 402 and ELS 503
Description:  ELS 503 and ELS 402 rest in front of the former MILW depots at Channing, MI, on 26 Jun. '21. I feel compelled to point out that I was not infringing upon railroad property, I was standing next to the vacant restaurant which has stood next to the depots for many years.

ELS 501 and ELS 503
Title:  ELS 501 and ELS 503
Description:  An E&LS train coughs a bit of smoke as it approaches the junction with the CN, former SOO, rails as it heads northeast with 16 cars via former MILW rails at Pembine, WI, on 23 Jul. '21. The ca. 1887 union depot would have obscured this view of the train, until it was wantonly destroyed by arson perpetrated by juvenile miscreants on 17 Jun. 2019.
