GB&W train comes off the former Milwaukee Road "Valley Line"
at Wisconsin Rapids.
 
        Bill Christopher of East End Productions videotapes #312 as it leads a train
back onto home rails. Fall flooding on the Whitehall Division forced trains to
be detoured south to the ex-Milwaukee Road (Wisconsin
Central) main line at La Crosse and then up the ex-MILW "Valley
        Line" at New Lisbon.  Note the "Homer E. McGee" lettering on the side of
the cab, in honor of the president of the railroad from 1934-1963.

  Western Color Pictorial (2003), available from Four
  Ways West Publications.
