Abandoned Rails         
This is the former connection track between the ex Illinois Central and Ex Milwaukee Road lines on the west side of Monroe, WI. Current operator, Wisconsin and Southern put this track out of service when they constructed the trackage for the Badger State Ethanol Plant, which is just out of the picture to the right.

Joseph Schmid General So it was abandoned, but are the rails still in place? 2/27/2010 5:31:06 PM
Spencer Wagen General When this picture was taken they were still in place, but I haven't checked out rail activity in Monroe since I took this, so I can't say for certain. 2/28/2010 3:39:13 PM
