Flooding of the Trempealeau River often washed out the tracks on the Whitehall Division.

The Green Bay Route fought a never ending battle against flooding of the Trempealeau River.

This postcard picture shows flood damage near Arcadia (milepost 192).  The message reads in part: "Had a flood here Sunday. Everything in a terrible condition." We're not sure if they were referring to the flood shown in the postcard, however.

A cropped version of this photo appears in The Story Of The Green Bay And Western by Ray and Ellen Sprecht (1966).
